I Remember...

I remember the very first week of College English: Ms. Stariha made me about crap my pants when she told me that this class was going to be a lot of work. My very first paper, I didn't get the grade I wanted, although it was a pretty solid grade. I thought I had put a lot of work into it--a total of about two hours. I thought, "Gee, this had better be a good paper 'cause I put more work into this than any of the other ones I had written." It came back about a B- or so, and I was rather upset because I had put time into it.

I'm tellin' ya...lots of work is PAYING OFF BIG TIME! I put HOURS UPON HOURS into my rhetorical analysis essay, and it was worth it...

Seeking advice

Ok guys.... I was working on my survey and I started to think that I could get more out of my results if I made one for adults and one for high school students. Is this a good idea? Do you think it will get to complicated if I have more then I survey? Will it be better when figuring out my results if I just had the one survey?

Just looking for advice!
I'm getting kind of confused about the research paper right now, its like my mind is going blank. Maybe somebody out there has a few ideas they could share...please?
I really like having this time in the lab. Even though most classes seem to slack off during this time, I think that our class uses our time wisely. Having lab time available at school has helped so much so questions can be asked right away.
Thanks for the extra time.

In other news, I am getting very stressed out about this class.
ok bye!
Well, I put a lot of effort into my rhetorical analysis paper, and it definitely showed in my grade. I'm pretty sure that this is the best grade I've received so far in this class on a written paper! Anyways this definitely makes me want to apply myself even more to the research paper because I know I can probably improve more overall! I have to say, a lot has been going on in my life, and this has put a smile on my face. Thank you Stariha for helping me improve :)
