into the semester I get a hang of things more and more. Getting used to the teaching styles of teachers and learning to some what "play the game." I am doing pretty good in all my classes. This week is a short week..only three days this week. Wednesday is veterans day so we have that day off then we go back on Thursday which is really stupid. I am here in the lab currently and its pretty boring as always. I'm just trying to kill some time by typing this blog entry really slow. I plan on being here for about another hour and a half at least. I need to get my research paper checked by one of the tutors. I need two of the tutor forms so ill need to come in here another time before thanksgiving comes. And ill be doing the exact same thing next Monday that I'm doing today. Its the never ending cycle of work and school...the story of my life for the next year and couple months of my life. Blah Blah Blah trying to waste time is alot harder than it seems.
One thing that I wanted to talk about is the data base that Mr. Murphy told us to check out. In my opinion it is a piece of garbage. I have a semi-common topic that I am researching and it gives me horrible sources. Mr. Murphy said if i dont like that database, to try another one. The only thing is that I dont know of any other data bases aside from wikipedia. And I dont know why but wikipedia is really frowned upon when using it has a source.
Ok so I just had the tutor look at my paper and I didnt have too many issues except for the citing in my paper. I just need to look that up in the hackers rules for writing handbook. Also he said that i need to have all the quotations in my paper in conjunction with my sentances. So tonight or tomorrow night I will make some changes to my paper and probably not until next monday will I get my paper checked again.
