Good Luck!!

I would like to congratulate everyone who passes this term!!! I enjoyed working with you all, and I have learned so much from each of you. I also enjoyed all the feedback and responses that I had received. I enjoyed this course, it has helped me become a better writer than I was before. I do see some improvements, and I still feel I could learn more about writing. I hear practice makes perfect, I will definitely apply that to my writing.
Professor Feraldi, you are a great teacher, I appreciate you working with me and helping me through this course. I would like to wish everyone from here on out the best of luck with everything. Thank you all!

My Final Paper

I am very excited to say that my final paper is almost done! I am also very stressed out about it at the same time; it scares me to know that my work will be graded. I have a pretty good feeling about the information I was able to provide, but when it comes to editing and revising I know that is my troubled area. I plan on having others around me take a good look at it to see what they think needs to be changed. I will be more at ease when I am completely finished with my paper. I have spent all of my precious time on it and can’t wait to see how well I did. I honestly feel really good about my paper, I have put a lot of thought and research into it. I am also very exhausted with it trying to find great useful information, and putting everything together to where it makes sense. I would also have to say that at this point I feel the same about writing as I did before. I am not the greatest at it, and it takes more of my time trying to get it right. Although, I did enjoy writing about bloodborne pathogens, it is a very interesting subject that every medical professional should have the knowledge about before working in a medical workplace.
 I wish you all the best of luck with your paper. I was great to meet you all and I enjoyed working with you. Some of you have taught me a few things and have given me some great feedback I appreciate everything, you are all truly great!

Revising

When I first started to revise my paper I of course did not know what all needed to be fixed. I then turned to others around me to look at my paper, and not everyone knew or had any ideas on what needed to be changed. I did get some help from a few others and some from myself. It was a little challenging for me to do, and I still think I have a few problems; I’m just not exactly sure. I like posting my paper for everyone else to look at and give me some ideas, it helps me a lot. I do not take all feedback negatively. I try to look at like people are trying to help by giving me some ideas on what needs to be changed or taken out. I especially like feedback from the professors that is what is important. If a professor tells me that something is wrong, needs to be added or taken out, or even changed, it helps me to think harder at what I could do to make this a better paper. Getting feedback from anyone is important to me. I hope you all got some great feedback for ideas on your paper as well. Good luck to you all on writing a great paper!
