erasing until I don't have any more ideas

 Hey :), I just got out of class, because FORTUNATLY he ended class quite early. 20 minutes earlier than usual, to be a little more specific. During class we talked about commentary, and personally, I think commentary is kinda hard. All the paragraphs and essays I've worked on he's never mentioned anything bad about it; it's actually really good, but I still struggle on it the most. Sometimes, I think I'm overthinking it wayyyyyy too much, because it should be really simple. But, no. It's not that I don't know what I want to write about after I provide my evidence, it's more so I don't know how to formulate the sentence correctly and in a suitable way for it to formulate with my essay as a whole. I always feel as if I'm doing it wrong. And since I usually don't like how I explained the evidence, I keep changing it up and erasing it until I don't have any more ideas. It takes up a lot of time. Also, he gave us questions to ask ourselves to get a better idea of how commentary is developed. For example, one of them were " How does this connect to the claim?" But, my mind is automatically telling me to write " This connects to the claim because...", and I know that's not right. I'll watch some videos on it later to better understand what to do. Anyways, I hope y'all have a great day.

last blog post.. til august

 Hey y'all, I know my last post was supposed to be the one I made giving advice, but I thought that was so lame. So, this is my real last blog post... until August cause I'm definitely gonna talk junk on here about my next teachers.  In class today, we barely did anything because he was just putting in the final final grade. I was sad, but happy at the same time. I'm happy I got one more laugh before I left the class forreal. He said I was the blog champion of the class and that took me outttttttttttt😂.  I remember I hated this class so freaking much, and it ended up becoming my favorite class of the day. With all the funny comments that were made by Mr. Rease, and my friends blowing my phone up with laughing emojis, this class never failed to put a smile on my face. I would have never thought that I'd enjoy blogging this much, and it has actually gave me some ideas on hobbies or even what I could become in the future. Updating this blog every school day was something

my partner was STRUGGLING

Spring break should have been 2 weeks. Waking up at 8 is garbage. I don't even pay attention in my first or second period, but I always know what's going on. Third and fourth period are usually >>>>>>>. Anyways, today we had to upload our sources in a folder, and the first few times Mr. Rease was explaining it like absolute trash. He gave us 10 minutes to upload everything, and I had to call my partner to see if she knew what she was doing. She didn't. So we're on the phone just complaining about how nothing he said made sense, and just trying to figure it out ourselves thennnnnn he calls my name and basically asks me if I know what I'm doing. SIR IF I KNEW WHAT I WAS DOING YOU WOULD'VE SEEN MY UPLOADS😂. I'm glad he called on me though, cause I know if he didn't I would've been trying to figure it out for myself the whole class period. After he explained it the first time to me, it didn't make sense, but when he asked me to

last prompt

 Some advice I'd give to the next students coming in would simply be to practice. Seriously, if you've never practiced writing an essay in 40 minutes, it's best that you work on that and actually make time to do that. Also, work on your comprehension skills PLEASE. Because some of these passages they give are so confusing. You gotta make sure you remember all the suggestions that are given for writing an essay, cause to be honest, it's the best one I've came across so far. OHHHH and let's not forget commentary. COMMENTART COMMENTARY COMMENTARY. It's more important than I thought it was in the beginning of the year. The thesis is really the backbone of the essay too, so have it down pat before exam time. Lastly, I'd just say to take your time and don't stress. If you start practicing early, you'll be good. And before I really end this off, don't be boring in your blog. It sucks, and your partner will probably hate you. Cause when a persons blo
