After reviewing the course grading chart, I feel a little more confident in my progress so far. At about 3 weeks into this semester, I thought for sure I was going to fail this class because, go figure, balancing 60 hour work weeks, 3 classes, 2 kids and a husband is pretty damn hard. This class feels just as non-stop as my life, but after reviewing the course grading chart and calculating exactly how many points I will need, I am finally able to breathe a little easier!
I enjoy the analysis and close readings most. I find myself rushing through the weekly reading, but I have to really take my time to write the analysis and close readings. I have never been much of a reader so these assignments are helping teach me how to really read and not just rush through things. I also readlly enjoy reading everyone else's analysis and close readings - especially on passages I have read myself. I enjoy seeing the different take-aways other people have from the same writing.
For the second half of the semester I want to try working ahead. My goal is to take a day off within the next few weeks to give myself some extra time for classwork.
