Sunday Post

This weekend was a fantastic break from the day-to-day grind and I'm looking forward to next weekend just as much, if not more. I was able to spend time with some friends that I haven't seen in quite a while; that made for a great start to the weekend! Today I celebrated an early Thanksgiving with one side of my family and I had a great time catching up with everyone. Next weekend we will have another get together and I am looking forward to spending even more time with family and friends. I hope everyone else had an amazing weekend too!

Wednesday's Post

Well today has been fairly laid back and still pretty darn cold. But that's alright because even though it's pretty rough weather outside, I really enjoy the winter season! Everyone is brought together by  holiday season celebrations and that far out weighs any bad weather. Another bonus from all of this wonderful white powder was the snow day that we had yesterday! I know that's not great on our course load, but it was a fantastic mid-week break that I think everyone enjoyed.

Tuesday's Post

I really enjoyed reading through some of our plays during class on Monday. It was interesting to hear about what topics other students had decided to work on. Plus, I think we all had a great time being a part of each others plays! I am definitely looking forward to listening to more plays tomorrow; unless we happen to have another snow day that is. Either way, the plays have been pretty fun so far and I look forward to finishing out this project!

2nd post of the week!

This week has been pretty busy and we got our first substantial snow on campus! It's definitely becoming more stressful as the end of the semester continues to close in on us. I think that the play project should be interesting when it comes time to present, even though personally I'm not a huge fan of plays. However, I think it'll be pretty fun and it's getting us that much closer to the end of the semester. Now hopefully this weekend will be a good time to relax and of course work on homework.

First post of the week

Monday was a pretty normal class day as we went over all of our argumentative essays. I think that the peer revisions will be useful when it comes time to type up our final drafts. So far I have enjoyed writing about a topic that I already have quite a thorough background in. The sources weren't too hard to find, and I used some of the tips from the source checklist to verify them. Overall this has been an interesting project to work on and I look forward to seeing what my final draft will turn out to look like.

Post #1 for the week

In Monday's class we participated in an argument activity, which I thought was quite interesting. It's amazing to see what emotions and viewpoints can come from such a simple and fictional activity. I thought it was quite useful because it helped to show the class what type of information is needed when trying to make a strong argument. I picked out my topic for my argumentative essay and I am rather excited to work on it; mainly because I have a strong background in the field and I always enjoy writing about topics that should be important from a public perspective.

Post for Wednesday's Class

This week was filled with a lot of class work and even more homework. I was definitely looking forward to coming home for the weekend and spending time with my family. So far I haven't done much of my homework, but I know I have to finish it this weekend. But quite frankly, I really don't like wasting my weekends on homework. However, that's just one of the many beauties of this wonderful thing known as college. I guess that's my mini rant for this week, I'll see you all on Monday!
