Famous Last Words: Getting it Together!

 



So this is actually the first time I'm doing this type of assignment. I've never even looked at this option, but I might be doing it more often in the future. 

I really struggled with this class at the start of the semester. I don't know why, but I was just so unmotivated to do any of it. I enjoy this class and the readings, but I just didn't feel like writing anything. So, I got a couple of points behind. I was stressing out about it; it's not like me to ignore things or fall behind in the class. 

I am very happy with myself this week though! I finally got it together. I wrote a story last week and updated my project. That put me in a good place for this week! I caught up to the class total points, and I even got ahead in the class. I plan on doing more extra credit so that I can finish the class in week 12. I love doing the weekly readings, so I'm going to work on them ahead of time so I can get the extra 4 points each week. I plan on working for the A. I don't know how much of my portfolio I'll end up completing, but I'm happy with my progress in the class. Doing the week 8 reflection inspired me to change my working habits. This class is fun if you just focus doing the work that you most enjoy.

I just posted another story on my portfolio, and I had a create time doing the editing. The story on my blog didn't really match the theme for my portfolio, but I think the changes that I made to the story made it work. I created a frame tale (something new for me!) and tried to make the story a little bit creepy. I'm happy with the work I did on it, and I'm excited to work on the revisions for it as well. I hope I can keep up with the momentum I created this week!

Introductions Are Hard

 Hello! I'm Grayce and this is my second time taking an online class with Laura! All of the information in my original introduction   is still pretty accurate, so feel free to check it out. Honestly, I'm pretty bad at talking about myself and it's just as hard while blogging 😅. This is my senior year at OU (finally!). Since I'm an older college student (25), I'm very excited to graduate. I will soon be able to start my career as an educator which is completely terrifying! Over my quarantine summer, I've been surrounding myself with plants. I have a tendency to kill things, but I've found a few varieties of houseplants (snake plant and marble pothos) that can withstand some abuse lol. If you have any gardening advice, or suggestions for plant names, let me know :)  My plant friends:  This is my Marble Queen Pothos (needs a name!) This is my Snake plant (Sansevieria), which is currently named Georgina (I'm open to renaming)  Image Information:  "Marb

Do you see this crap out there? They are MURDERING us.  Brad rolls his eyes, but says nothing [Eric]: You're the best guy that we have! Dude, you know that we can't win this without you!  [Brad]: It
