Hello everyone - to what hopefully will be my last blog posting! It is definitely crazy to think that this semester is already over...these last 10 weeks have definitely flown by. It is also crazy to think about everything that I have learned in this class, and how my writing techniques have definitely improved because of it. I definitely feel very confindent in taking what I have learned here and applying it to my professional life. It has been a blast working with all of you and I hope ya'll have a very successful careers and never give up your dreams!

Week 9
Hi everyone!
Sorry I didn't make it on last week to do a post. Things have definitely been crazy busy around here. Sometime I feel like there are just not enough hours in a day to get everything done! Between work, and kids and things of those sort there is not much quite time haha. It seems like from Sun up to Sun down we are on the go - which isn't too bad but man am I exhausted! And to be honest not too much is new....my husband still has no idea wheither or not he wants to stay in or get out - which definitely makes me nervous because we don't have that much time to flip flop around. My job still sucks and I still work 6 days a week in what feels like a sweat shop (haha). Man I feel like someone kicked it into High Gear for us and didn't give us any warning!

Week 7
Hi Everyone -
Nothing too much has been going on this week, so i decided to write about the peer review subject. Honestly I have not have very many good peer review experience in my college courses. I have found in other college courses that the peer review step kind of gets skipped over. In my last couple of english courses, I have definitely gone through the peer review step. When reviewing essays, I usually came across the ones that don't make sense, had ton of errors, could tell that they just throw it together to throw it together you know what I mean? So of course I would definitely make suggestion on how to effectively fix their essays. At the end of these courses we all were able to read each others essays, so I purposely choose the essays that I had already read to see if what type of changes they had made, and to see if they had taken any of the advice that I had given them. I was definitely dissappointed to find that the essays were exactly the way they were before, and still had tons of gramatical errors. So needless to say I have definitely had discouraging experiences with peer reviewing.
