12/3/12
Last day of class!
Today is the last day of class. I hope I passed all my classes. It's been a fun semester, and I hope to be back next semester. I learned so much from this class. I gained a few friends and some acquaintances. So far, I'm satisfied.
The presentations & Poems
Hey Everyone
I haven't posted my blogs since my internet has been down.
I won't be able to view any replies from my classmates since I will be in work throughout the morning, then school as soon as I get off from work.
I know we've had a lot of assignments since that last class I attended, I've gotten most of them done.
but please, if anyone can update me on more information, please text me if possible 482-5714
'll be at work, but still finishing up other assignments from other classes as well as this class.
This semester has passed within the blink of an eye.
oh and for the updates, can you tell me the poems that we will be RECITING in class, the poems that deal with whatever we want to speak of, vulgarity included is necessary.

NOV.28 - Final Project Presentation
“I didn't say it was going to be easy, I told you it was going to be worth it.” - A quote I live by.
I’m up here to do my final project presentation. It’s relevant because it is an important part of my final grade. Three things that I have learned and accomplished are the paragraph drills, writing lessons, and the blogs.
The first thing I learned and accomplished were the paragraph drills. When I first learned about writing paragraphs, I thought it would be hard considering the fact that I always struggled trying to find a topic. Then, Mrs. Quichocho gave us paragraph drill after she taught the class her “Outline Cluster.” After we were taught, it was then that I realized that writing paragraphs would be easy. Since then, I have gotten better at writing paragraphs and faster, so I have accomplished doing paragraph drills.
The second thing I have l learned and accomplished were the writing lessons. First, we would get the writing lessons and read the information given. Second, we would then answer the questions pertaining to the information given within the lesson. Finally, when we corrected it as a class and we would ask questions if something didn't seem right. I’m glad Mrs. Quichocho gave us those lessons, I’ll admit there was some information that I didn't know about writing until I did a lesson. Therefore, I know I learned from the lessons and have accomplished them.
The first time I heard that we will be doing blogs in this class, I didn't know what to expect besides the fact that it dealt with using the computer. After I was taught how to do it, I thought to myself “ WOW… it’s that simple?!” I've never done blogs in my whole life. It only took about 5 minutes to do it. I wrote about what I learned in each class session with Mrs. Q, and my experiences, along with a picture that describes the paragraph. Each blog had to be a paragraph long with proper punctuation and grammar. Blogging actually helps with my writing in so many different ways also. I found blogging to be fun because it always gave me an excuse to be on the computer even when I’m busy.
Altogether, I have learned and accomplished paragraph drills, writing lessons, and the blogs. Like I mentioned before, I’m up here to do my final project presentation. Thank you all for listening. Good night!

my lyric poem
After all the speeches, we did our multiple voice poems. It was hilarious!! when I went up to do my individual poem, i decided to read 2 of them out of the 15 that i did. I read my free style poem and my I AM poem. I'm so glad that Mrs.Q liked it. I love writing poems, I wanted to read more but I was afraid that if I kept going, it would become more personal...Now, i'm excited to go to class on Monday !! why?? because it's POTLUCK MONDAY!! yummy :p
