In class today we peer reviewed other students papers. I am not the best with grammar so I am hoping that they do not rely on me to fix all of their mistakes when I make plenty of my own. My topic I think is a topic that not many people know about because it does not affect them. So in my paper I want to tell these people that it does effect them because it affects our country's reputation which reflects its people. I peer reviewed one of the girls in my group and her paper is going to be about cell phones and their physical and mental effect that they have one people. I think that this is a great topic because almost everyone has a cell phone and our culture has become obsessed with technology and without it most of us would be lost.

Writing Center
Today in English we went to the Writing Center. There they told us about how we could use the writing center to our advantage. There are many reasons that people use the writing center not only for just English but for other things as well. I think that it is pretty cool that our school offers something like the writing center. I know that I need help writing papers a lot. I get stuck on trying to wrap up the paper and so I always end up with a bad ending. For our next assignment I will try the writing center to see if it does improve my grade.

What to do??
I really do not know what topic I am going to write about. I have a couple ideas that i have been thinking about. One of the ideas is Greek Life at Ball State. I kind of do not know how to narrow that down into something I can write about. I was also thinking about Child sex trafficking. I amstill thinking about the question I can have for my project.
Syllabus
Our instructor Tess Evans gave us a syllabus for the spring semester. English 104 was beginning to seem harder and harder as she went through the syllabus. I am quite worried for this English class more than any other one. I am not very computer savvy and one of the assignments she expects us to do is build our own website. This for me feels like an impossible task. I am nervous to find out the ending of my own story in English 104. Will it be a dramatic ending filled with suspense or an ending that everyone lives happily ever after? I actually would like a mixture of both. We also went over how attendance is important which should not nbe hard for me considering I live in the building in which class is held.
