A New Week

Its a new week here a Richard bland and boy is time flying by lol it is already week 10 here and I swear we juststarted school. But never mind that we have another paper to write.....IKR another one? But its all good I am going to write my paper and this one will be good. But we have to cite three sources!!  That is not the move, I hate writing a paper that needs to be cited that will honestly be the death of me, I need to really learn how to cite papers better than I did in High School. I wasn't in class Monday because I was sick so I might have missed him explain the paper and how cite it. Nevertheless I will write a good paper this time. Class today was pretty fun tho, we got to play taboo! That game really makes you use your brain...I honestly think I may have caught a brain cramp jk jk it wasn't that serious but I did horrible when it was my turn to read the card. I really need to step my game up when it comes to taboo.

This Week So Far

Hey everyone Jacob here lol! just in case you've missed class Monday or today. basically we have discussed articles that we were supposed to read and hopefully you all read them. And on Monday we watched a video of this guy basically telling us that we don't need a college education to get to where you want to go. He used great examples for instance he referred to Malcolm X saying "Malcolm X learned everything he needed in prison" which is very true. He also referred to Bill gates who was a college drop out and now is one of the richest men on the planet. Everything he said was spot on, you really don't need a college education to get rich because all life really is, is common sense. He explained how he busted his butt studying so much that he had brain cramps and survived on nothing but caffeine. And it was practically all for no reason because the one who harped to him that college was important was the same person who didn't even show up to his college graduation. Do I think you need a college education to get where you want in life? No i do not. College to me is just a door way to help get you in a better position to have a job. That is all it seems to me. But yes this is what we have done so far this week!

Grammar Schmammar 3

That grammar schmammer group 3 was the best ive seen so far! Everything they presented and talked about was on point. But my favorite part of course was the candy. I mean who doesn’t love candy, especially twix, starburst, and blow pops! Everyone loves them. But that wasn’t the most important part of the presentation. Their whole presentation on comma usage was excellent and I especially liked how they got everyone involved, it really felt like they were teachers teaching a class. My favorite part was how Kayla threw the joke in there. She explained the importance of commas in a comical way. Ive never seen that done before . So grammar schmammer group 3 yall did a great job!!
