I am not so sure if you want to hear "off topic" stuff, but I feel like sharing some with you tonight. Hopefully you will not mind much. Anyhow, I have been listening to a song this whole entire day. Are you wondering what the song is? Well, it is an old song. Maybe very old. But I just discovered it not too long ago, just some days ago. It is by a very old group. Westlife. The song is called, "Every Little Thing You Do". I knew about the group, but I have not heard of this song until two days ago. Michelle wanted to borrow my Zune MP3 player, and so I lent it to her for two days. And when she gave it back to me, there were new songs in there and so I listened to them.One of the songs is "Every Little Thing You Do". Have you ever listened to a song for the first time and thought that it's so good you wanted to learn the lyrics? And so you repeated the song until you got all the lyrics down by heart? Well, that is what I am doing right now. I like listening to male singers more than female singers. I think they have better singing voices.
Okay... This semester went by super fast. I cannot believe we are already working on our final portfolio. How did time go by so fast? I remember back when I was so much younger, elementary school went by so sloooooow. Anyway, my final portfolio...I have revised my Project 1 Paper already. I am planning on using Projects 1 and 3. Project 3 just needs to be revised again and, and then my final portfolio will pretty much be done. Oh, and my "Reflection Letter" too. I will need to work on that very soon. I chose these two papers because I believe I understood what I was writing about more than my Project 2 Paper. I honestly did not really know what I was writing about in my second project paper. I did not feel the connection when I was writing. Often times, I felt confused and was not sure if my ideas were tying together or not. This semester had me thinking about connecting my ideas and making sure they all tie together the most. I don't remember having to worry so much about rhetoricality in my English essays, EVER. But because of this class, I think have grown to become a better writer. I feel like I am finally a university student when I write essays these days.
I believe my papers do not have much of the generalities issue. I use sources to back up what I have said or argued for. They are not just opinions or anything like that. But I will reread them just to be double sure. I will also take out my "Annotated Bibliography" out from my Project 3. I believe I included it there. I have noticed that solutions were not included in my papers. If I were to add solutions to what I want to change, my papers would be more lengthy and they would meet the final portfolio page requirement. Another thing I would probably need to include when going through the revising process is talking about both sides and then putting in my own opinions.
I believe my portfolio is cleanly formatted. My work isn't all over the place and hard to keep up with what's going on in the portfolio. I use proper page breaks, page numbers, I tab every new paragraph, and my Works Cited page is properly MLA formatted. I believe I will pass English 5A this semester.
