Research Update

      So far, my research project has been going pretty good. The hardest part for me was finding the sources. I spent forever on databases trying to find the perfect sources that would support my research the best. I am doing mine on Bubonic Plague, so it was not that there were not enough sources but almost too many. I felt as if all of them would go great with backing up my context. I finally just decided to pick two for each of my topics within my research question.
     However, after I found all my sources everything seemed to be easier. Although the annotated bibliography took a while to get motivated to do, once I started it breezed by. Hopefully being confident with my sources the rest of the project will be non-stressful and easier!

Fall Break Free Post

       Fall break is definitely one of my favorite breaks. It is a great break from school to relax and have fun. This past break, my mom and one of my friends mom surprised us with a trip to New York for our birthdays. We were both super excited and could not wait until we got there.        We had to get up at 3:30 Thursday morning to get to New Orleans to catch our flight. After the short plane ride, we did not waste any time, we jumped right in to doing things. We shopped the first day and went out to dinner for an early birthday dinner at the Sugar Factory. The next few days, we spent in Central Park, Little Italy, Brooklyn, and SoHo. Also, we went to see Hamilton. It was awesome! Overall, I had a very fun fall break and got a good break from studying and homework.

We completed multiple assignments, such as personal narratives, literary analysis, research paper, and poetry. In these assignments, I have achieved both success and failures. I feel successful in my blog posts because I always spend time perfecting them and use them to become a better writer. Also, the personal narrative and research paper were my stronger assignments. We had lots of time to perfect these and get help. I took advantage of this and used this time to work on my writing skills.      I struggled with the poetry section and literary analysis. The poetry section was difficult for me because of all the different applications and variety it required. I work better with set, given instructions, so to be able to choose from ten different poetry styles was hard because I ...
