Unit 7 Blog CM 229-03

Merry Christmas!!!!! I am sitting here with my hunny bunny watching Kalifornia, we just put the baby to sleep and are enjoying some quiet time. I got bored so decided to do this blog and get it over with.

I love peer reviews. Well to be more specific, I like to hear responses from me peers about my work. To me constructive criticism is a great way to learn new things. Also, when someone compliments my work I feel so great about myself and the effort that I put into my paper. I am very bad with grammar and punctuation so having someone look over my papers helps me in that area for sure.

That's it for me, Happy Holidays!

Unit 6 Blog CM 229-03

Hello all!

Well I am currently in Timberline, West Virginia in a cabin with my honey bunch just relaxing. We went skiing today, well he snow boarded and so did I till I got tired of falling. Then I jumped on skis and had a blast! My mother-in-law took our son for the night so I get some much needed alone time with my husband. Too bad a seminar tonight has to cut into it. Well I'm multitasking right now so I'll jump into this blog.

These past 6 weeks have been a challenge for me. It is hard to juggle family, school, and everything that I need to do everyday. Then the holiday's do not make things any easier on me. I truly believe that men have it much much easier than women. I have been having trouble with my son because with my husbands return home he has been very needy and possessive of me. Instead of asking his daddy for juice he will ask me and freak out if I don't do it. School is going fine for me though. I am doing very well so far and with this being my last term in the school year, I have to get my clinical paperwork done before the end of January and get my CPR certification. I don't think they should charge you so much for a class that people take to help save lives. How much is a life worth? $80 for a CPR class, man oh man. Well everyone, I have to cut this off now. It's time for my A & P class then off to the hot tub. I took some pretty hard falls today and my knee is so messed up. See you all in seminar!

Unit 5 Blog CM 229-03

WOO HOO MID TERM IS HERE!!!!!
So is the holiday's, I just made pumpkin rolls last night. One for us at home and one for my husbands soldiers. They love my cooking. :) We have a new puppy, for our son of course. It's a boxer, he is just the cutest alien looking thing in the world. We named him Achilles, because my husband is all about bad arse Grecian dudes since he saw 300. Well onto the blog:

The one thing that is creating an academic challenge for me is the holiday's. I know that sounds weird but any woman should know how I feel, lol. There is just so much to do on top of what I already have to get done everyday. We are going to be going to Cali next week and I am rushing to try and get my Unit 6 projects done so I can spend time with my family, I only get to see them once a year (maybe). Then there's the fact that I am having problems with my financial aid advisor, which adds to the holiday stress. Some day's I get burned out and have to lock myself in a room to get any school done. I just know that in the end it will all be worth it and I can't wait for that time.

Well everyone, I will see you in seminar on Wed. Have a good week and Happy Holiday's, hopefully your having a better time, lol.

Unit 4 Blog CM 229-03

Well another week. I am starting to get to work on my paper for this class. It's hard to find the words for most things I want to write. I rather dislike writing papers, but when I get started man I get going with it LOL.

The topic I chose to write about is "What would you do if someone used something you created without giving you credit?". Well I know exactly how I would react, I would be furious! I would probably say something publicly as well to hurt them. I have had an idea "plagiarized" that was mine when I was in the Army. Although I never thought it of it that way when it happened. I guess that I am a vengeful person. If you do something bad to me or someone I care about, then beware of my wrath, lol. I see plagiarism the same as stealing, it's stealing an idea or thought that wasn't yours. It isn't right for anyone to take credit for things that isn't theirs. It's very complicated because it can happen accidentally also.

Well I hope that I made sense. :) I am missing keys from my keyboard so it's really hard to type anything. It took me about 30 minutes to write all this, so I am gonna cut this short. Have a great weekend everyone!
