TGIF :)
Today as I was about to step onto the bus back to Mushashi-Sakai, I met up with Asami and Kaori. Getting off the bus, we walked past the ticket area and were heading towards our platform when I realized that there was someone really tall behind us. It was Rab! We all stepped onto the crowded train together and got off at our destinations. Nice coincidence :)
In class, we marked our own PWTs and then our first essay via sentenceworks. It was hard to give myself a grade on the PWTs because I was unsure whether or not I had accurately answered the content part of the questions. Trying to determine how many points my incompleted answer was worth was challening too. It was a good experience though and I'm sure practicing how to objectively examine writing will help with editing our own essay as well as those of other students.
Moving onto sentenceworks, I thought it was handy because it pointed out all possibe spots for more improvement and because it let me edit in a different color so I could see the changes I was making in the paper. I got a bit confused with the usage of passive voice, but learned that it is not always necessarily wrong to include it in a paper. It depends on the preference of the teacher. Luckily, Rab does not mind much about passive voice.
Uh oh... I'm half sleeping as I write this ><
Sorry for the simple entry... will try to do a better job next week.
Good Night.
