Work in Progress

I just got done reading through my draft and making changes. I must say that it really helped to staple the sheets together in one long scroll so that I could see how it all lays out. I have found that one of the reasons I do not like rereading my drafts it because my computer screen is so small, and it is hard for me to get an understanding of how it flows. I made some changes for the order that I will write it and did a little editing.
I feel bad. This morning I woke up and saw that it had snowed. My first thought was, "there will me not school today". OH NO! I can't miss SCHOOL! I have so much I need to learn! How am I going to get this paper done right if I cannot learn how to do it! I kept checking Blackboard and my email and this blog to see if Ms Frailly had written any instruction on what we should do today; nothing. I see that this kind of situation is good. Now is the perfect time to learn to apply all I know on my own. It really is what we all are supposed to be doing. I guess the reason I do not like to is because I feel like my life depends on this grade sometimes. Really, this is not the point. I came to college to learn, not make good grades. The grades are just a reflection, and yes, they are what other schools will look at to see if I am a good student, but it I am just trying to use what I am taught how can that put me to shame? So, needless to say I sat back and enjoyed the fact that we did not have school today, and used what I had learned from last class to work on what I was doing. I feel better knowing that I have a better handle on what I am doing!
