Unit 10 the end

Hooray hooray this is it until next term. I wish the Profesor and classmates the best and good luck in the future. I enjoyed the class and will push forward to do better. It was a difficult situation but I made it again. I may just check in every now and then to write a bit. I have had a good time in this class so hope the other Professors and classmates are just as helpful and fun.

End of Term-Unit 9

Thank goodness this term is almost over. I actually did better in this term than last term so, I am proud of myself. I just have to take what I have learned and use it in everday life if possible. My algebra class was the hardest but I did much better and I understood it better this time so that was a blessing. My college comp class went wel also, I just wish I opened up a bit more with my classmates. All in all this has been an ok term and and I'm glad that it is almost over....Hooray!!!!

Posting after class ends

Posting after the class is over is not something that I will be pursuing. I don't get many comments so I don't feel it is worth the time. Now, unless I have another class that requires me to blog then I will. I do like the post that others post and when I have time I do read some other classmates and they are enjoyable and interesting to read. So good luck to those that will continue.

Unit 7 Peer Reviews

Peer reviews is what we are working on now in this unit. I am ok with getting reviewed it is when I have to review another classmates work. I just don't feel comfortable doing that, because I may say something wrong about the paper when all along it was right, or I may not have the knowledge about the subject like that person would. I just like to read another persons work and say whether it was good or not so good. I guess this will be my test to see if I can do this peer reviewing of others work. I just have to learn to not second guess my self on certain things also. But I think it will be a challenge for me to learn something else to better my understanding of certain techniques.

Unit 6 Blues

Unit 6 was a bit challenging, by trying to get my research paper done. While I was in the process of collecting information for my research paper I had gotten sick, went to the hospital twice within two weeks, and been in bed for about a week total. Now I was wondering when things would get better, so I could get back to my school work and other activities that needed to be done. This was a hard couple of weeks for me but I am back in motion, and it feels good. I wrote about anxiety and its causes, and it really made me think about stress, because stress is one of the main causes of anxiety and panic attacks. I have to say this is a very interesting topic and I'm glad I wrote about it.

Freewriting

I like freewriting because you can write about whatever and just go on. Freewriting is not having a certain topic, or this theme or that. I like to write without the pressure. I like to just write in a journal. Freewriting is when you don't have to edit, and you can also get plenty of ideas out of what your writing. You can write everything down without worrying about punctuation or complete sentences. Then at the end you can go back and put it all in perspective.

Academic challenges, we all have to deal with I think. I was very sceptical about starting at Kaplan. I have many challenges that I need to overcome. The first thing that I feel is challenging for me is my time management, second would be staying ahead r on track with my studies. I knew going back to college would be difficult and time consuming but, I will get through it, with hard work and help.

Research Paper

Today I was doing some research for my paper and found that by starting late on your research can really put you in a crunch. I did see that it is very helpful to start on the research early and get all the information together that you will need for your paper. By having this research information and your tools that you will use should help with everything being in order and with the challenging parts of your research.

Just try

Just try to me means to not give up. If things do not seem to work out for you or go your way, try it again but with a different approach. Just try and see where that gets you. You have to really want something in order to succeed. So, put your best foot forward stay positive and keep trying and doing your best to accomplish whatever it is you want to accomplish!

Positivity

Being positive is a good thing to be in life. I think that when your going through certain situations in life we tend to get negative about things. I feel that we should focus on the positive and stay positive because thats what we need. So when you can think of something happy and positve it will boost you up.

Live life and be happy...

We want to be happy all the time...but that is not always the case! So, we take the bad with the good. Enjoy your family and spend as much time as possible with family. Live, Laugh, Love and be happy!!!!!

how precious life is

I just want to say how precious life is and how short it can be. You never know from day to day what can happen. Have you ever thought about what your life expectancy is? Have you thought about when a person passes, what this person thought of their life or what did that person want to make right in there life? You may wonder why didn't I keep in touch or just call or write a letter or send a postcard to say (hello, I love you, or just thinking of you). Famiy and friends are very important to me and when someone leaves you unexpectedly it's hard to cope.
So I feel that it is good to treasure your family and friends no matter how far or near. Just treasure the ones you love.....

Trying to cope with work, being a student and taking care of home

I have to say that when I first started my online classes, I was not working and I just felt like time was lost. After a while it was fun and very challenging when I went back to school. I try to take care of me first but that never seems to happen, because someone always need me to do something for them...I'm suppose to say no and do what Lisa needs to do but I'm that type of person that just can't say No! Eventhough I work part-time it doesn't seem like enough hours in a day to get all that I need done.

New to me

All this is new to me and I'm trying to get this posting on the blog down. I guess when your not sure of doing new things on the computer I get a bit unsure of myself. So, I guess the best thing to do is to keep trying and hope one day you will get it right. I know that when it comes to doing new things on the computer I can become computer iliterate.

Trials of the week

You try so hard to get through your days the best way you can. At times it is hard or better yet you get an obstacle that may hinder you some how some way. So, what I am learning is that things happen for a reason and we can ask God to come into our lives and remove that obstacle that was or is in the way...It shall be moved he said! So I feel that I can overcome anything and make it through my week, or day no matter what. God is here to help me in my time of need....To all have a blessed and wonderful night...

New to me

Ok, this is new to me but i think i got it set up right....lol
happy blogging
