Final Draft

With my paper almost done because I still need to do some revising on it. I feel relieved because it is almost over with. I feel exhausted not because of this alone but because it is a little difficulty having to do tow papers at one for two different classes and they both are due at the same time. I don't know what to do. I have kept it together this far so it will not be that bad. I have actually enjoyed writing my paper for this class though about depression, mainly because I know a few friends and family members who I believe might have a few symptoms. I am a little nervous about turning in the final paper because I want to make sure that I have done everything correctly and I defiantly want to make sure that use APA correctly. As for writing as a whole If I had to do it I feel that i could do a good job and not freak out to much, but If I had a choice in the matter I would not do it because It is very time consuming and sometimes difficult to find current research about a topic. I am sure though before I am done at Kaplan I will have a least another paper to write but I know now I will be able to handle it.

Feed back/ Continue with the blog

I have appreciated all the comments that I have received about my first draft during unit 7 discussion board. To be honest I was actually looking forward to it and hoping that my peers would read it and offer me there feedback. I took out the time and I read through them all and i am going to make some of the changes that where suggested, especially about how I can make my paper longer and what topic I could research a little more. I like to have feedback because I know what i need to improve on and what could be better. I received great feedback and there was nothing that I feel that I did not agree with.

To be honest with you after class is over with I probably will not be continuing on with the blog. It is not really my thing. Like I enjoy going on to different sites and reading someone Else's blogs and commented on them, but as for me that is all I really enjoying doing. I don't care to much for posting my on blog. I will say though I have enjoyed doing this blog during class and I enjoyed the comments.

Peer Reveiw....Unit 7

I actually like to have peer review, it gives me the chance to get feedback from others especially when I feel like I could have done a little better on something. It gives me a opportunity to see if the person reviewing my paper feels I need improvement on the same thing that I do. I have never really had any bad experiences because other than this I have never really written that many papers. What I have done though and have experienced I like it I think that there is nothing wrong with getting a little extra help from someone else that is only trying to help. Even if I did not totally agree with the changes that they might suggest I still say Thank you, nothing wrong with thinking about a few changes.

Way to much going on..........

I would have to say that the first two weeks were going great I started off in class very good and everything personally was going pretty ok too. Then about the third week everything started to fall apart. My daughter who is eight years old has being pretty healthy a least as far as all the doctos has told me at every single appointment every since she was born. About the end of January the school called me and told me that she was having trouble breathing and she was complaining of very bad chest and that I needed to come and get her. So I did and I took her to the Emergency Department well about after a life time in there they came and told me that she has asthma. No body in my family has asthma so I had no idea what to do I was a little freaked out about it. Well after that happened a week and half ago I was in the middle of getting my hair done and the school called me to let me know that my daughter was on her way to the Emergency Department by ambulance and that I needed to get there. Here I am freaking out once again not knowing what is going on thinking that may it had something to do with the asthma. When I get there they tell me that they think that she was having a seizure. You have no idea what was really going through my head here I am on the verse of tears not knowing why they are telling me that my girl was possible having seizures. Well we have a appointment to go see the Neurologist on Tuesday to see what is going on. When I say that these last few weeks has being crazy and frustrating you have on idea, its a wonder I am still able to keep my head above water.
