just thought I would write

Hey everyone. I just thought I would get on here to write and try to clear my mind. Last Tuesday my oldest son was taken to Juvinelle Detention Center for being in contempt of court because he was not following the rules that the court system had given him. He will be away for almost a year before he gets to come back home. I sit here sometimes and wonder what I did so bad for this to happen, but I keep in my mind that if I did not love my son that I would have let him run wild like a lot of the kids around here do. I love my son and that is why I got him the help that he needs but sometimes I keep feeling sad because I do not have him home. But when he does get to come home he will be a better person and will show the respect that he should be showing anyways. Good luck everyone in school. It was hard for me last term to finish but I did finish with everything that has been going on. I hope to keep in touch with everyone that I was in class with.

week 9

Hey everyone. I am just now being able to connect to the internet again. There is something going on with the line inside my house. They told me that it make take up to two weeks to get it fixed. I am going to be keeping up with my blog once we are finished with our writing class. I really do enjoy just sitting here writing about different things that come to my mind. It also helps me to get some things down on paper that I can't get out of my head. By writing things in a blog I am able to open up and speak my mind more. I really enjoyed our class together. I hope everyone will stay in touch. Good luck on your paper and everything you do in life. Just remember when things get hard never give up. They get hard for a reason so just keep fighting for what you want.

Week 8

Hello everyone. We are almost finished with this term. I do not believe that I have had any issues so far this term. I have really enjoyed all of my classes that I have taken this term. I have met some very awesome people and very awesome teachers this term. I do not feel bad about the comments that people have left on my blogs. There are not a lot of comments but not as many that I had expected but it is okay. I will keep up with my blog after I finish this class. I really enjoy writing on here. It lets me express my thoughts and lets me get out some frustations that I have to. I want to let everyone know that it was very good to be able to have fun with you all in the class. I hope that we keep in touch as we finish our terms in school. Good luck everyone.

week 7

Hey everyone.

First off I would like to say that I enjoy peer reviews. I like it when someone looks over my paper and gives feedback about my paper. On the peer reviews, I want them to be honest and let me know what they think. It doesn't hurt my feelings at all. I want the peer review to be straight up front with how they feel about my paper. I also would like to know what I will need to improve on. I get stuck on a lot of things when it comes to trying and figureing out what to do about my paper. I had a hard time focusing on my paper this time. I have had alot going on this week. Good luck with all of your papers.

week 6

There are a lot of things that I have been dealing with the past six weeks. I will start off by saying we are almost through another term here at Kaplan. It is very awesome to meet and keep in touch with people at Kaplan. One thing that I have been dealing with the past couple of weeks is making sure that I am making enough time for my family, work, and school. The classes I have this term are harder than the ones I had last term. Another task I have been doing is finding the time to take my kids to their practices for ball, while working a full time jobe and going to school. I really made the right decision when I chose to go back to school. One of my coworkers, in fact the manager of the store told me that she is very proud and envys me for the fact that I went back to school. She stated that it must be hard to be a single mom of four children and work a full time job while juggling going back to school. I looked at her and told her that nothing is to hard for me as long as I want it bad enough and put my mind to it then i will succeed.

Week 5

Hey everyone. I am just writing a blog about how school is influencing my life. I never thought that I would be able to go back to school after being out for so long. At first when I thought I would go back to school, I just laughed and said I can not handle going back to school. When I want something bad enough, I put my mind to it and do not stop til I accomplish what I want. I will not give up on my school until I have my diploma in my hand. I am bound and determined to finish school with a 3.5 or better grade point average. School is making my life better by letting accomplish what I have always wanted to do. It is making my dreams come true. When school work gets hard, I sit and think of how much I have to look forward to when I am finished with my schooling. I will not let anything get me down. I will make sure that i do succeed in school and be very proud when I am handed a diploma. I do have to say it is hard to go to school, work a full time job, and take care of four wonderful children. I would not give any of that up for anything. I keep telling myself, that I am bettering myself and the future for my kids.

Plagiarism

Hey everyone. I was just thinking about writing something to do with our citations. It is very important when we are citing someone else's work that we make sure to put the source that we cited. If someone was to cite our work and did not use the source they got it from, then it is considered plagiarism. There are so many people that do not realize that they are writing someone else's work and not letting everyone know that it did not come from them. I hope that everyone is having an awesome week. We don't have that long left until our term will be over. It is good to know exactly how we are to put our sources in alphabetical order by Author's name when using sources. Good luck in the class and writing your paper.

Going back to school

Hello everyone.
I thought I would take the time out of my birthday and write a blog for everyone. I really enjoy being an online student. It has plenty of challenges of going to school online but I would not trade it for anything. I really am glad that I made the decision to go back to school and to choose Kaplan as the school I want to go to. By going to school online, it works with my busy schedule that I have. I work a full time job, a single parent of four children, and go to school. Believe me I would not change anything because I actually make a schedule out to fit everything in. Besides working, going to school, and taking care of my kids, I also run the kids to ball practice. If someone was to tell me that I would never make it going to school online, I would tell them that it is better than going to school in person because of the busy schedule that I have. That is about all that I have to say for now. I hope everyone is enjoying the weather if it is good. I would be if i wasn't sick. Take care everyone and see you in the seminar and discussion board.

for writing composition

Hello class and professor. I really do not know what to write but I am going to give it a try. This week has been a very long week for me. The first part of the week was not bad at all, but on Wednesday when we had seminar I had to work my job from 4pm to 1am so it was hard for me to get on the computer to be able to attend all of the seminar. After that, I was off Thurday and Friday. On Friday morning, I left for Georgia to take my kids down there to stay with their dad for spring break. The bad thing about that was that I had to be back to work on Saturday because my boss would not switch my days off for me so that I would not have to hurry back to work. It took me 14 hours to get down there because of all the traffic jams and other things going on that day. After I dropped my kids off and gased up, I headed back on the road to head back home to Kentucky where I had to be at work. I hit kentucky at 3:30pm Saturday. I was so exhausted because I had not had any sleep and had been up since Friday morning at 6am. After getting back to work at 3:30pm, I was so tired I just wanted to go to sleep. I was finally able to go to bed around 2am Sunday morning.

school

Hey everyone. I was just wanting everyone to know that I really do think that I made the right choice on going back to school to better my self and the future of my children. I really love going to school and learning to become a Medical Assistant. So far in school, I have a 3.8 grade point average. It is hard to work a full time job, take care of four children and go back to school, but I don't let it get me down because I know that I can do it. I put my mind to it and I will become the Medical Assistant that I want to be. I hope everyone enjoys reading my blogs. This is the first time that I have ever made one.
