Deadline #2, HW #7

This weeks work was a lot to do, I'm not even kidding. I'm so gonna have to start breaking this stuff up throughout the week. I've worked non-stop on this for the last four hours. I do have to say that a lot of the work I did helped me better my writing skills. I learned more about putting a paper together than all the years before attending middle school, high school and my one measly year of college. I realized there's a lot more to a paper than just actually writing. You have to research, decide a topic and that's not just going "oh, I'm going to write on this" and bam it comes easy. I've learned that just because a subject seems easy to write on it doesn't necessarily mean it is. There may not be much information to do research on or have examples to back up what you're saying. Reading my classmates material helped me out a bunch, especially when I didn't know how to start off. I know reading them did help me out a lot because if I didn't have their work to use as a guideline I would have been at this for hours (not like I haven't been already, but you get my point).

I feel the same way about the dead lines. I had no times this week and so now I'm finishing up my homework st 11:46pm... but it is a lot of help reading around.
