The Final

The final essay that concludes the course is the "This I Believe" essay. This essay allows me to share my core belief and explain why I believe it. I am excited to write this essay because it is more personal and the approach allows me to share my belief with my classmates and allows me to voice a belief that truly means something to me. I am thankful for this chance and very excited.

My Final Thoughts

My first thoughts from the start of the course to the very end have changed. I was not happy about the amount of work I was recieving. Now, in a strange way I am. The work kept me focused and kept me learning new things. The readings could be tuff at the time, but I got threw them and actually understood them. This course has taught me a lot, it taught me how to think out side the box and write in different styles from what I was use to. Overall, the course was not a blow off one and I am very happy I took it because I have learned so much from all I have done within my com 101 class.

The Final Portfoio

Earlier today I finished putting together my entire portfolio and as tuff as it was creating it, I was very happy that it was hard. If it was not hard for me, I would have been lazy and not have put my all in the readings, essays and revision of my essays. I am thankful that I had the chance to do a portfolio and revise my essays, because I have learned more about my writing than I have ever before.

Revision

This weekend I re-read all my essays to see what I could improve. I am suprised of the changes I caught that needed to be done now that I must of missed before. Revision is defintly a great tool to better your writing, and helps me learn from my mistakes for the next time!

Writing Center

For the first time I went to the writing center. The experience was very positive. The guy who read my essay said I had an interesting way of writing and he liked it. At first, I was dreading to go because I did not have time. Finally, I went and I realized I should've went earlier because it was really helpful and I am going to take the advice and use it to better my essay.

Final Meeting

I had a meeting with Mr. McGuire today and it was probably the most helpful one yet. I just finished my collage essay and had it revised and now understand how to make it better. The meeting was very beneficial to me and now I know how to better my collage. So im hoping the final product will be successful.

Coming Along

Im finally starting to understand the research project, and I am actually coming along. Im still confused on how to put everything togehter but once I sit done and actually focus and put my bits and pieces of writing, everything should be okay then.
