Hey y'all!
Guess what?! I am writing my blog post from Sugar Land, Texas tonight, and it is the most wonderful feeling ever! I am so glad to be back home in the motherland. I have shopped and done some serious partying at the Houston Rodeo. If any of y'all ever have to chance to make it down to Houston in March, get tickets to this AMAZING event. My southern accent is back, so that is the greatest outcome from this entire trip.
So, on to the important stuff! This week in class we went to the computer lab to gather research for our upcoming Business Article paper due. All my life I have wanted to be a wedding planner, and that is the main subject of my paper I am going to write! I am really excited to see what I can produce.
Besides doing research, we peer edited our persuasive and bad news letters. From what my peers had to say, I was very persuasive when it came to making them want to date me (but honestly...who wouldn't?!). Even though I had my male readers graveling at my feet for a date, I could definitely improve on my bad news letter. I am breaking up with Bob Barker and I need to do some tweaking here and there so I don't come off too harsh. I don't want to break the man's heart! For bad news letters, you want to be straight forward but not form a bad relationship. This can be hard, but anything done poorly can come back and bite you in the butt. Polite and refined, but to the point are the things I got out of my peer editing sessions.
I am going to work hard to edit my papers to the best of my abilities so I can successfully break up with Bob without any hard feelings, and gain a date in the process.
Wow. I didn't know it was possible to get an accent back that quick. That's cool. I think that the library lecture was SUPER helpful. The resources that BYU offers are very useful.
