Only 3 more days.

I'm real tired tonight. School is catching up with me. I have been doing about 2 or 3 hours of homework a day. That's because one of the classes is a hybrid class and we use the computer for all kinds of stuff. Example, This week assignment is to find 3 magazine articles on the Internet that are a minimum of 5 pages long and then we have a work sheet that we fill out for each article. To pick the topic we had to free write in class for 5 minutes and then she read what we wrote and then picked a topic for us. I got soap making. I have books about it but not magazine articles. She wants magazines so that we can practice giving them credit when we do the work sheet. Then we have to tell what the predominant rhetorical strategy is being used. ( What?!) Also show two quotations that prove that point. And then a seconded and third rhetorical strategy that is also used. Oh, and give two quotations for each. I have learned what a rhetorical strategy is and how to spot them.

My Psychology class has just as much home work. This week we had to turn in drawings of: motor neurons and their parts, neurotransmitters, four parts of the brain, limbic system and their parts, cortex and brain stem. Also describing each part and what they do.

My frind Kellie sent me this. It made my laugh. I hope that it gives you a smile.

  3. ok so one way to know if you really understand something is to describe it to someone else. This would be a great place to describe what you are learning because what is Rhetorical strategy?
