End of the Quarter Blog

This was a fun class, and I learned a lot about how to be a better writer.  I learned how to get my information and to equally distribute it within my essays and papers.  The old me would start at the beginning of my paper and list all the information I have, and for the rest of the paper I would stay on the same subject and try to come up with the pages.  Now I know that their needs to be and intro with a thesis, that states your three main points you want to talk about in your paper, you body, which has to explain your three main points, and the conclusion, which sums it all up.  Having this format for my essay helps out  because it helps me to keep my notes and information organized on paper.  Also Mrs. Boland helped me out a lot by showing me different ways to write and showing me how to look for more then one source for my paper.  This course will help out a lot for my future classes to come where i have to write essays, because i will be so used to writing them by then that they will come second nature and be easy and done in the right manner.  Besides learning to write this class also helped me to read and understand my material further.  Usually when i would read i would get the idea, but i wouldn't take it further and annotate and get in depth with that paper until now.  This class taught me how to, overall, become a better writing and reader which is going to be a great help as a continue with my college career.

My weekend

This weekend was ok, not like all the other weekends here. Friday all i did was go to class then me and my friend went to see the Watchmen movie with my bestfriend. It was interesting, alot of nuidity and hardcore violence but other then that it was good. After that we went back to the dorms and i cleaned my room which needed a really good clean up. Then i went to bed early cause i didnt feel good. The next day I got to sleep in so i woke up took a shower and just relaxed all day but later that day my sister called and wanted to go to dinner, she came and picked me up, because i dont have a car anymore due to a recent accident, and we went to Vinces spaghetti, it was good. After that we just at in her room and watched movies, got ice cream later. The next morning i had to wake up early cause my parents wanted to go to the swap meet and they leave at like 9 in the morning. So while we were waiting for my friend to get there we ate but unfortunately my friend couldnt go so it was just me and my parents. It was fun though i got alot of cool stuff for a cheap price after that my mom sister and dad took me to dinner and then home. It was a pretty fun weekend but hopefully next week will be alot more better.

Research Papers...

Usually I'm not a big fan of research papers, but when i went online to look for some i got a lot of really good ideas that i could write about.  I got a lot of information on gang violence, religion, music, dance, and singing, and many more.  When I looked at it the first time I was interested ion three options, gang violence, dance, and music.  I thought that those would be the more interesting field to research.
