5/21-Semester Reflection

     It's crazy how fast this school year went. I remembered just getting into this class the beginning of the second semester and I worried how difficult it would be. It wasn't too bad, so I'm grateful for that. I know I complained a lot in these posts and when I look back at them, I feel sort of childish because the assignments weren't even that bad. Oh I also remember when we talked about our goals in the beginning for our warm ups and one of mine was to get a job for the summer. I just applied to one yesterday, so I'm one step closer to the goal. I also just remembered another goal which was to get straight A's or some A's and B's. I got all A's this semester, so I completed the goal. I'm very thankful for taking this class this semester and the opportunities that were given. Of course it couldn't have been done if it wasn't for Mr. Rease. I don't give him enough credit really, but he was an awesome teacher and really chill. I wish things were different if it wasn't for Covid, but we were stuck to being virtual and my mom wasn't going to let me leave the house. Overall I had a great time and I learned a lot. I will continue to grow and improve and maybe I'll come back to my blog when I remember and post life updates.

Reflection 3/19

    I'm glad there wasn't much for us to do today. Plus it's Friday, it's the end of the week and at that point I'm just ready to get out of school. My only problem with today is the direction explaining. At first it was explained one way, but when we do it wrong there's a problem. Should've been made clear the first time, we're all not mind readers. Especially when some of us are doing school virtually.

3/23

      This is going to be a short post. I wasn't feeling very well today, so I wasn't able to attend the rest of my classes. I don't think there's too much I need to catch up on, but hopefully it's not complicated when I attend class on Thursday. It was nice to have a break from staring at a screen all day though.

5/12-Exam Day

      The exam wasn't too bad at all really. I think I actually did really good on the multiple choice timing wise and  feeling confident on what was the best answer. The essay part wasn't too bad, but I ended up spending too much time on the synthesis essay. Even though that was the case, I was still able to finish the rhetorical analysis and argumentative essay. I didn't do great on rhetorical analysis because I couldn't remember much of the devices, but I pulled what I could remember. Argumentative was ok, but it could've been better now that I'm thinking about it. My hand was hurting at that point and I just wanted to be done. So I'd say synthesis was my best essay out of all 3 of them. The exam on a whole felt a little more easier than the practice we've been doing. It was a lot easier for me to read the passages and understand them which made it a lot easier for me.
