So I missed doing the unit 4 blog. I am going to do it now so that I have the satisfaction of knowing that I completed it even though it is late.
Citing sources if very important to prevent plagiarism. If we use something someone else wrote then we must cite it to give them the credit they are due. If someone took credit for something that I wrote I would be very upset. I work hard on anything that I do so I do not want someone else claiming that it is theirs. It is not fair that I would do all of the work while someone else takes credit. The internet is a place where plagiarism occurs alot. People find things they like and use it on their sites and do not cite it. This happens alot. If I ever use a quote that I like or anythigng like that I try to always remember to say who wrote it. I do not want to take credit for something that is not mine.

Getting Caught Up
Well I missed last weeks blog. I have not been feeling well. I am going to start out by talking about my writing style. I tend to use freewriting a good bit. I love to just start writing down my thoughts about a topic without worrying about how perfect or correct it is. I find some of my best ideas and points this way. I just let it flow and then I go back a proofread it and make any corrections that may need to be made. I love to do this.
At this point in my life school is becoming harder and harder for me to keep up with. There seems to be so much going on in my personal and professional life that I have been finding it hard to find the time for school. But, I am getting back on track now. I am determined to make it through this term as well as all of my upcoming terms and graduate. The honors part of school is really making it tough on me right now. I am seriously contemplating dropping out of the honors course and just continuing on with the regular classes. I just do not know for sure if I want to or not. I do not want to regret it but it is putting a big damper on my GPA right now. But, I suppose I shall just have to see what happens this term and go from there.
School has become a big influence on my life. Even when I am having difficulty keeping up with the work it is always on the back of my mind. I have become even more determined to succeed, especially since I have fallen behind. I have a stronger resolve to finish this now!!
Have a great day and a great week!!
