My Life Hates OPED's
I forgot to bring it to class. So I told myself, Veronica you'll be alright, just bring it in right after school. Right after school rolls around. Totally got caught up talking w/Mrs Glerum and Mr I about my audition in a week! (which my the way I'm totally freaking out about and every time I think about it I want to scream and cry and shave my head like Brittany Spears) So then I couldn't find Stariha. So I told myself, Veronica, don't panic just type it up and send it to her when you get home. I get home, sit down at the computer and can NOT keep my eyes open to save my life. fell asleep. darn it. better just go to bed. Saturday: Ok REALLY GOTTA type up this paper for College English. 10k,basketball game, get home and the computer in our house hold is under the use of someone else. I don't want to start confrontation so I leave it alone. They never got off! So Sunday. I'm super sick. Dang it Laura write that stupid paper! Its already done all you have to to is type it and submit it. too sick. Now its too late to type it up because typing is loud (apparently) and its a school night so I can't be typing so loud and keeping everyone up. So, I know that none of this is going to make a difference and I'm still going to get a zero from Stariha for this paper because she doesn't take crap from anyone (not that that is a bad thing) but yeah. I'm off to (quietly so that I don't keep anyone up) scream and cry and shave my head.
so many things to do...
So many things I wanted to do today...and the op-ed wasn't one of them. Serves me right, I guess, for not doing it on friday. Maybe I can finish this in time to take care of that "unfinished business"...
More Trouble With my OpEd
Well I'm off writing my OpEd again and I just can't seem to get a hold on it. I know what I want to write about but can't figure out how to get there, especially when it comes to using textual support and outside sources. Have others refuted the opposing side? It doesn't seem like it should all fit in one paper!
jghg
So far Ive really liked this book. I think that the perspective is really cool, like going back and forth from flashback to real life. Its a really cool way to show his past but not having to start the story there. I really hope that we can get into deep discussions with this book like what we did for 1984.

Op-Ed
So I found some "expert quotes" that agreed with what I am saying in my Op-Ed, but I don't know if I need to do a annotated bibliography... Does anyone know if we are supposed to do one in the Op-Ed? I think I won't and then if I need it later then I will go back and do it again sometime later. Its been a long day, lots of makeup homework. So I hope you like my paper Stariha! hehe
Have a good weekend everyone! :D
Have a good weekend everyone! :D
gay rights issue.
wellll i thought that the issue on friday was a reallllly good one i really enjoyed hearing everyones ideas, and also i feel like more people got involved in the actual discussion, but i feel bad for the group because i feel like everyone already kinda new the sides and facts and just right away got into the discussion and the group almost didnt finish their prezi but still it was good, i dont really wanna continue on with the discussion on here because people feel so strongly about it. but yeaah i love friday controversial issues. its sooooo fun :)
op-ed essay
i feeel so behind/lost kinda on the op-ed im trying to keep it narrow but its hard and also since i didnt have the whole thing done when we first turned in the rough draft i didnt get a full revised/edited esssay to help guide me in the right direction, this week im planning on meeting with mrs.stariha a lot to make it better.
