Week 8 progress

 1) I'm okay with my progress so far, I am not thrilled with it by any means. At the beginning of the semester I was worried I would have to drop this class because I was having such a hard time getting things done but lately I have been doing a much better job completing assignments. I am using some of the extra credit assignments, but I should probably do a few more. I feel like my blog is pretty well developed but my website could use some work.

2) For the second half of the semester I would really like to do enough extra credit and complete enough assignments to have an A in the class.

I'm graduating

Week 8 comments and feedback

 Overall I think all of the feedback I have received has been helpful and well done. I can be not the best about taking corrective criticism but I have not had that problem in this class.

I like giving feedback more than I like receiving it.  That is probably my oldest sister complex and enneagram 8 in its best form. I try to say more positive things than negative in all of my comments because I learned in my freshman psych class that in successful relationships a person usually sayd 5 positive things for every 1 negative.

I do feel like the way blogging is set up in this class has allowed for more camaraderie than other online classes I have been a part of. I have actually been pleasantly surprised that I have a few friends I did not realize were also taking the course through blog comments and commenting on their blogs.

I want to change some of my introduction I feel like it is quite choppy and doesn't represent my true self to the extent it could.

feedback cat

I chose this cat because sometimes I need to keep in mind that it is better to at least get an assignment done even if its not perfect.
 

Week 8 reading and writing

 I think the reading and writing assignments are going well for me. I enjoy writing way more than I thought I would and look forward to writing a new story every week. I am very happy with my blog and I like that my website has the same theme, black background and white writing, however I wish my website looked more professional. My biggest accomplishment in this class would be writing what I actually feel and expressing my emotions. I find it is much easier to write stories when you are sincere about the feelings a certain situation evokes and write about things you have actually experienced. My reading notes could definitely include a few more details, maybe even character descriptions.

Baby Turtle

I chose the picture of the baby turtle because I think it is really cute.

Looking Forward

As usual to get more out of this class and any other class I should stop procrastinating.
