English 101 Expectations

ENG 101 Expectations

     Believe it or not English happens to be one of my favorite subjects. Mo matter ho many time i mispell the word for , i always seem to find my love for the literary language again. I find it better going into a situation without any major expectations. It seems that when you do , you are slapped in the face with a big ol' pie of disappointment. So instead of failing miserably trying to dodge that pie, let's not even go to the bakery. But this is English 101 class and we are obviously not baking. I hope to come out of this class at the end of the semester as the best essay reviser CVCC has ever seen. I want to revise papers with my eyes close, "grammerly who?" I hope to advance my comprehension skills and maybe even read some books that will also further my knowledge.I was once an avid reader but now i cant even pick up a book. I blame being a millennial. I hope that i will find my passion for books again. I am a person who truly sucks at any kind of punctuation, so I wish to improve on my grammar kills.It is the one thing that always keeps me away from my perfect score on an essay. English to me has always been more than a class that you learn writing skills in, so I hope that this class is nothing less.

When to Cite information ? ( I gotchu)

        Plagiarism  occurs when outside information that is used in an essay is not cited correctly or cited at all.  Once a source is found and incorporated, the source needs to be cited.  Always properly cite an author's original idea,  regardless of whether you have directly quoted or paraphrased it.   Your source citation of a book, website, article, or dictionary shows that an expert backs up your statement and tells the reader how to find the facts. All In all siting your information is an away step and very much necessary to avoid any major errors of plagiarism that will result in an F and further action.

The Experience of Essay #2

         Ok so to start this essay was way much fast and easier for me to achieve. Which is honestly surprising after all of the problems that I have been having with life. This is because I originally thought I was behind my class. I was out for a week so I had checked the schedule and idk. I was wrong complete and freaked out for nothing. Because I thought I was behind I went home the next day and wrote my essay that night, not completely finishing but having for paragraphs. This essay definitely required more information and searching. I had to be more careful about how I worded everything and to make sure they were all supporting my thesis statement. It was much easier because I was just providing information to the reader while supporting my thesis. I also always try to pick topics that I know interest me, so it is easier for me to find a flow of words.

College + Life = Struggle

          College students often struggle to keep up with their schoolwork while also keeping up with life. Life comes quick and when college is involved it multiplies. School in itself is a personal job, you have to manage your time, grades and life all at once. School is more advanced and challenging than what it used to be. Many people who push to achieve an education but also have day-to-day life problems struggle. Colleges often try to be more flexible for their students and also teachers so that everyone can prosper. Most students have a job and also have to balance school and work life. This often causes stress and once we are stressed all hell breaks loose. Your hair isn’t done, you look like a bum you got 6 assignments due tomorrow and you got to work til’ 12 pm tonight. That is what you call quitting time. (lol,JK) College is the first real taste of independence for a lot of people. This means that many of the decisions that were once made for y...
