The clock strikes four, as students primarily sit in their own wanted order up until today due to assigned seating for this semester. Rummaging through bags or fiddling here and there, an attendance sheet is being passed around in which I'm glad we're credited for though points are deducted from a scale of tardiness. Tic toc, the clock strikes again. I soon began, as well as the others, to immerse in a presentation in which a fellow classmate, named Keith, presented. It was a delightful and honest analysis that was briefly discussed, involving determination and goal setting. (Please forgive if I'm wrong about his subject of quotation. It is all due to the fact that I have forgetful tendencies. However, I do believe it was regarding determination and goal setting. Mind you, I may be wrong and I fully take all responsibilities.) After the brave presentation, the class moved along to the book, Paragraphs and Essay, which we all participated in writing, reading and answering exercises.
My impression of yesterday's class was basically like past classes we've had, specifically three non-sequential days of verbal practice, involving underlining, outlining, annotations, and citations. I enjoyed it as much as I've enjoyed my past English classes and I do hope it'll continue to be a fun filled experience, which will enhance my writing and reading skill to a college level student.
Although, all of what we're covering in class is like a refreshment of what I've learned in my last year of high school but in a more enhanced and thorough level. I particularly like rereading the essays, especially ones that are in relation to us. I.e. The Struggle to Be an All-American Girl, written by Elizabeth Wong, who in truth reminds me of Amy Tan, one of my favorite authors!
