My type-o == Please Read, Prof. S.

Hi Class,

A few of you are asking me about work for “UNIT IV.” There isn’t any required. The last page of your UNIT III format document had some old instructions that were intended for another class, not yours. You don’t have to do any “Unit IV.” I want to thank the students who brought this to my attention. My apologies. See below:

The table of contents is accurate:

 

This last page, which I did not scroll down far enough to see, is not:

Dear Diary,

I am writing this work because I just woke up , WOW! this is unbelievable I just got two email from two of my teachers telling me that I missed class early in the morning , so I run to go take a shower now realizing that I’m really taking online classes and  not just being home and getting a passing grade , LIFE IS NOT EASY. I am writing this while looking through my window thinking if this how the world going to starting to be or I’m still not fully wake as yet.

Dear Diary,

It’s Tuesday and I got no class so I went to bed extremely late because for once I don’t got to go to work but instead write about my day which is better then going to work. I am writing this to keep myself up to date with everyone , I’m doing very well still not sick which is good, I need me a haircut already but the barbers are close poor me I miss going outside but once I stay inside nobody won’t see my hair .  Now that I’m about to finish this piece of writing let me go check on other classes I miss and see if I could keep up to date after I play some GTA ONLINE …LOL

12:00pm

I can’t believe to this day I really woke up at 7:45am to go my classes for today and already I am going back for my 15 mins of sleep so I could wake up for my 8:00 am class .  I started doing this writing piece at 12:00 p.m because I just finish my second class and this my only free time so best I finish up this work. Today was so exhausting the more the days count by I’m getting to like this online class because I think it’s kinda the same as my usual class just that if I don’t understand a topic I’ll just browse the internet to gain my knowledge on a topic .

3:45pm

Its Thursday, My sleep schedule is so mess up now I start sleeping when I usually be already awake for class staying up playing games all day and watching never felt so good before because now everybody online having fun .  I’m going to go outside and I’m checking  if I got everything and then when I walked outside every single soul walking this world have a mask so I quickly run to the store to get a mask and buy some groceries because now a days I be checking my fridge every minute thinking I’m hungry but truly I be just bored of eating the same thing.

9:45 am

I woke up for my class but I guess I’ll just make my life and just finish my English work before I go to my other class . My day started off  good today because I had enough sleep and I’m so ready to have my one class today but before Amma go get something eat before even though this like my seventh time going to the kitchen to make something eat in the last two hours.

2:00pm

Woke up not so long ago and started making dinner for myself.  I never felt like getting out of bed but I rather get something to eat before I even go to sleep so I got up and go take a shower and brush my teeth then I make rice and peas with stew chicken and Mac and cheese and trust me it was BUST!!! I then was happy that I got up to make something eat then straight after I finish my assignments and go straight back in my bed.

8:00 am

It turns out I never went back to bed from yesterday after I went into my bed , I was up all night in group calls with my friends and on social media and it’s funny because I can’t see them in person no more so I got to get a custom to the new ways because we can’t go out no more to play ball or nothing like that but we could play video games all day.

dear diary ,

I love staying home but I think I’m getting lazy because I’m going from sleeping to kitchen but aye I made it for the new month due to the Covid 19 which is now outrageous in numbers so I hope all my friends and people are staying home and be safe from this virus because it’s really deadly and I’m  hoping everybody is strap up before going against because everyday your life is at risk more then usual, so I make sure my house is full of food to server for another week.

dear diary ,

12:00 pm

dear Diary,

Woke up and went to finish my  online assignment not really much to do in my house but I’m still happy no matter what because when this is all over I am going to hate going back to school I can tell but since I didn’t eat anything from this morning I’m going to get something eat and go straight back to bed or play some video game if I feel like.

SECTION 2: REFLECTIONS AND ANALYSIS OF DIARY READING

I choose “ The diary of a wimpy kid” by Jeff Kinney. I chose this diary journal because I never really read books and back in the days not too long ago when I usually spent weekends with my auntie while she does the chores everybody had to read a book and the diary of a wimpy kid was the only book with pictures so I usually read it but I was small of age so I never really read to understand so now that I’m a college student I’m really happy to read this story again with my sense of knowledge now. By reading this book it brings back memories it felt as if I was his imaginary friend listening to every words he said figuring out that he hid a very honest person towards anything he said. The author uses such imagery to give a sense of pictures to give this whole story a Picture with every action he done to make me feel a sense that I was there. In the diary he speaks about all the good , bad, and ugly and the tone me of his voice changes throughout all the scenes and chapter which works really perfect to give the audience that sense of feeling . The whole diary would impact anybody with all them pictures and change in tone and the fact the tone swings in each different scene in different times.

Section 3: Reflection on Unit 2 and grade

In unit 2 things and times change so quickly  because we started off with a good start at school doing our work but things started to changed when we heard we got to start doing online classes since this covid 19 increases each and every day so we got to move to online classes. Overall though even though I’m not in class my professor Schmerler is doing her best to make us understand the work by making videos and also explains the work step by step and even giving examples also she even let us use open lab so if I don’t understand something I could learn off my fellow classmates and even if I still didn’t understand I could simple email her and I’m back on track with the class again . For this unit I wouldn’t give my self less that “B plus “ because  I do all my work but I don’t be replying to people which I’m starting to do now  but rather I’ll like to get a “A” because we got to try our best in these classes while home so the effort we put out means a lot because some of us got parents that won’t even make you feel comfortable doing work .

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How to Submit Your Mid-Semester Assignment on Apr 19

Hi Class,

When you have completed your WORD document, you can upload it to OpenLab. Please title your post YOURLASTNAME_YOURFIRSTNAME_MID-SEMESTER_UNIT II. I would also like this same nomenclature to be the title of your WORD document to make it easier for me to store your work.

We discussed how to upload documents and photos to OpenLab by using the “ADD MEDIA” tab at the upper left of the post dashboard. I will try to illustrate that, below.

Hope this is helpful!
