The Last Week

This is it; we have finally made it to the final week of Comp II. I never thought we'd get here. It really feels good to know that things are falling into place. When we first started this class I wasn't sure I was going to survive the project as well as I did, thinking that I had never done a scientific paper before, but sometimes when you just put your pencil to the paper, the writing comes out. I'm really happy with everything and will continue to use all that I have learned in this class with my next courses.

If I were to suggest advice to someone preparing to write a scientific paper, my input would be to make sure that you find something that is interesting to you and something that you might be able to relate too. I feel that you can always right a better paper and also follow a path that you feel you want more information on. Most topics you choose will have controversy; it's just a matter of picking something you won't get bored with.

Thanks for a good term and now I'm ready for my next challenge. I have selected three classes next term instead of only two.

Finishing the Final Paper

Accomplishing this final project is on the horizon and I can almost taste the completion of this project. I'm so ready for the stress to be released from my mind, at least for a couple of weeks before I have to begin my next set of classes. I will be glad once it's completed, but at the same time, this has really helped me to understand the factors that are effecting my wife on a daily basis with her kidney medication. If anything, I feel that I am more prepared for my next classes when it comes to writing, but also would be happy to not have to write another paper for a couple of months. No chance of that happening anytime soon. LOL

I'm ready to put this course to rest and take a break. Sometimes all this class work along with my work and home life is very overwhelming. But there is a goal at the end, and without this schooling I won't get there. So wiping this thought from my mind I'm ready to keep rolling and reach my goal, sooner than later. Wish me luck...
