Two weeks ago, I handed in my one to two page critical question for my Polly sci 112 and  it was on John Stuart Mill’s Harm principle. Today we received  our papers back, and I got a 68%. I was so upset and for some reason I thought I had failed that I cried all the way home. I told my Hubby and BFF that I was dropping out.  

Then I talked to my professor and he was like your grade is high then the class average.  He was also like that failing is a 50% and that the highest mark was just in the 80s.  Freak out over . Happy with my mark (after all), would have like higher but I will take it.  I also found out that  70% is all that is need to be on the honor roll.

Good bye Reading Week

Today is the last day of Reading Week I spent the morning with my books and this afternoon cleaning our place; Fun, fun, fun!!! One week from today I will be  writing  my first midterm.   So next week will be filled with studying, studying and more studying.

Typewritter vs. Laptop

I just finished my first term paper and I’ll be handing it in this Friday.  I have to say writing school paper in 2013 feel very different then writing any essay back in 1996.  First almost every thing is online vs in a file folder of articles and books. Also I didn't have a computer back in 1996, just a typewriter and white out.

 If you have never used a typewriter, let me tell you it is a pain in the

 a$$; the moment you pull that page out you know  will  find an error and the paper will never line up again.  So it will never line up just right to fix it. Where a laptop is fun and easy and every thing always looks good with just a click of the mouse. My laptop will even work will my voice.  

I ♥ my laptops. 

Papers

I am up to my eyeballs in term papers.  My first term paper is due this Friday ; it is a  7-9 pager, I am just about done.  I also have a one to two page critical question due this Wednesday and that just needs to be polished up and it is ready to handed.  Friday is my last day before reading week and I’m looking forward to catching up on reading, working, spending time with my Hun and sleeping. Talking about sleep I should head to bed.  

Feb Update

I am just about half way through my first term, and it is going well.  I have to say it is going so fast

Next Wednesday my mid-term critical question is due, and so the most part it is done, I just need to play with it a little and edit. It is worth 30% of my Polly Sci 112.  Then on the Feb. 15 in my other class (Polly Sci 111) my mid-term paper is due, and that I just need to write a thesis statement, a conclusion and to edit it.

The 15^th marks the start of start of my first reading week and I will be doing anything that could get me on a girls gone wild tape.
