We are two weeks away from the end of the semester and things are definitely starting to catch up to me. The assignments and final papers are overwhelming since the due dates are coming in quick, and the school days feel shorter! Although I have been able to keep up, the anticipation is REAL.
In Card 101, we are continuing to write our rhetorical argument essays and peer advice. I feel behind in my work since I changed my topic to fit more evidence and a stronger argument. It set me back a bit, but I feel comfortable with the sources I chose to make my claims in the paper. In my time working on the paper outside of class, I found the student examples helpful in terms of how to format and outline. I am also having some trouble incorporating my evidence into my paper. Oddly, I feel like although the information is valuable it is tough to quote statements without the phrase sounding odd? I guess?. All in all, I believe my paper still needs polishing before it's submitted as a final draft... but it will get there!
Since I have no more card-specific updates, I thought I would use this blog post to reflect on my college experience thus far. Granted, all of us are only freshmen or new transfers, but there is so much I learned academically and about myself during the school year. There is much more to come and that's dialectically nerve-racking and exciting. :)
