Pondering...

So I think I am getting somewhere...maybe. Writing his ideas down and then trying to understand what they are saying is a bit easier, but interpretting them is not. I am not sure if I did the assignment for today correctly, but I tried to draw my own conclusions. I really did. No mere spewing of information for this lady.
This is becoming increasingly difficult....
I thought I had an idea as to where I wanted to go with this paper, but as a proceed, I am becoming more and more lost. Perhaps it is because I am focusing too much on Kant, however, he is supposed to be the basis for my own frame of reference, so arent I supposed to pick him apart.
He needs to speak in plain English (German). This would make things so much easier.
I need to step up on my reading. I have no time. I dont want to fall behind and be scrambling at the end. I think I need more help then I initially thought I did.
Oh well...so much for success.

Pointless

I really wish I had a story to tell about something that happened this week. But really all of my stories are so inappopriate, or really no one would find them funny. A lot of them are simply "you had to be there stories". But I would like to say that Natalija Babicic was suppose to do English with me and she ditched me. Also my friend Nick and I spent three and a half hours defecting my computer from Security Tool. It's a viscious virus! And totally ate my computer, but now its all fixed :]. Anyways, can it be Thursday yet ;].

Frustration

I am completely frustrated with this whole research paper. I thought that actually having a topic I enjoyed learning about would help move this whole process along, but it has not. Attempting to read Kant is incredibly difficult and perhaps a bit mind numbing??(only because I seem completely unable to comprehend what he is saying). My other source is unavailable at the library and now I have to consider buying it and that is depressing. But I am complaining too much. Despite a few drawbacks I do think I have started to develop a few of my own ideas about my topic. This makes me happy. And now I am going to go and study for my A and P exam. YAY!

Sources

So I found a couple of sources on google scholar that have a lot of information, and I feel at this point should be helpful for my paper. I'm still not for sure on what my controlling purpose is yet for my paper, and still don't have a full sense of English 102 writing style. It has been a little tough so far with the whole English 102 research paper, finding sources but I still have not gone to any library yet, so I feel once I find some books that things will get a little easier. With more direction and understanding of English 102, writing this paper should hopefully not be to hard.

I really don't get this

I honestly do not know what is going on here. So confused, this is probably what I get for taking an online English class!

Ummm.....yeah!

So I've just accepted this blogger request. Seems kinda booty already! Lol. I'm watching Every Body Hates Chris, and I should be printing off two sources for hw today!

What to do?

I have been thinking about my topic and always come to a dead end because i never can get past the stupid academic inquiry. so i am not sure what i am going to do

English 102 drinking game

We should invent an online English 102 drinking game. Here's some ideas for rules.
1. If your discussion post gets a reply from a student, you take 1 drink
2. If your discussion post gets a positive reply from the teacher, give out 2 drinks
3. If your discussion post gets a negative reply from the teacher, take 2 drinks

4. Everyone posts their assignments as normal, then everyone logs on to D2L and drinks at 9:00PM on the assignment due date, according to the posts.

add some more rules here :D
