BDS from LAst week Monday-Friday Nov 7 - 11

 Please forgive me as these last couple weeks have been crazy and will continue to be so.

Monday- On Monday, I worked on a writing assignment for my History of English Language class.  I felt very frustrated during the entire assignment because I was unaware of exactly how to answer some of the questions it was definitely very hard to focus and and to allow my self to just be with the work.  I worked for about 40 minutes at a time to work through it.

Tuesday- On Tuesday, I had work for a paper that we are writing in my genres class.  The task was to find a few possible research questions for our end of the semester paper.  I was less frustrated with this and felt more calm to get it finished that most assignments like this normally leave me feeling.

Wednesday- On Wednesday, I had to prepare a poetry presentation.  I had to look up information on a Journal that we would be trying to get published in.  I actually had a lot of fun looking up all of the information and putting together the handouts for my class.

Thursday- On Thursday I had to finish up the assignment for my Genres class. I ended up narrowing my topic, then in class we had to discuss what would work and what would not work for the topics that we had chosen.  This portion of the process took a lot of self criticism which can be hard to do but it was easier just knowing that it was okay to have a problem with my work.

Friday- On Friday I worked on my poetry and tried to be as careful and thoughtful while critiquing my own work.  It took some timeouts while trying to work through all the kinks.
