Answer the following questions:
-How comfortable are you with the class right now?
I'm getting to be a bit more comfortable with this class. I've never really liked English, as I'm sure you know by now. I know that it's important though, so I do my best in class.
-Which Richard Light goal are you working on? How is it going?
I'm working on the goal of getting things done on time. I always procrastinate my assignments, and I end up pulling all nighters the day before things are due. I did a little better with the opinion editorial, but then I crashed again on the rhetorical analysis. Hopefully with the issues paper I'll be able to get most of it done before the day it's due.
-What do you want to work on for the rest of the semester?
Getting things done! I want to just get this last big paper done and over with. I'm proud of these last two papers, but this issues paper will be the biggest thing I've ever written. I also want to work on organizing my time a little better.
-What can your study group do to help you?
If my study group started doing peer review more often, even just small little read throughs, I think it would help. If I need to get a draft done so that I can send it off to be reviewed, then I won't be able to procrastinate as much.
-What can Ms. Hedengren do to help you?
I think just continue doing what you're doing.
I'll have questions a lot, especially when we're doing a big paper. Coming to class, they usually get answered. Somehow, I'm not sure how, you just know what I'm struggling with and teach it in class.
-What are you most proud of this semester?
The fact that I've written two papers already! And big ones too. I wouldn't have done anything like this in high school.
I took Business Communications my senior year, and did one paper the entire year. It was 3 pages long, and we had the first 4 months to do it. This class has definitely given me more work than I'm used to.

You are proud of pretty much the same thing that I am proud of! I can't believe that we have already gone through two large papers. It has been a pretty intense year! I'm glad we only have the issues paper and brochure left! I hope those go by as fast as these two did!
