It is that time of year when it is all about hustle and bustle, and rushing everything to get good grades. In English as usual we have an end of term portfolio to turn in as our final. With my 17 hour schedule, this has been a little bit more stressful then the past semester. Which i am going to argue as to why I have been slacking a little bit this semester. The last class Karen asked us if we were ready for english 104. I honestly think I am very prepared. My writing has developed quite a bit and I actually understand a lot more of english then last semester. Logos, Pathos, and Ethos are a lot more clear to me. I still slack with in paper citation, but mostly in my rough drafts i am just too lazy to write it down.
Even though i am stressed I will admit that i actually enjoy this portfolio. I really like just taking a break from some level 300 classes, and other difficult ones in my 17 hours. The portfolio lets me reflect on my progress and organize my thoughts. I also can perfect something for once, and emphasize my points, and finally just sit back, breathe, relax, and write.
This year has been such a great experience, it also made me much more open about my writing, and letting people give me advice, instead of being stubborn and always being right about my writing.
Thank you for such a delightful exeriance Karen! :)
You're welcome, Dena! I've loved working with this class and will miss you all.
