Blog Entry 6

Look's like I'm off to Essay 2 in my Writing class. This week we are to create a thesis statement and begin researching our topics. I am so used to using the web to research, I am a bit stumped about finding other resources. It will feel odd going to the library to research using books! I hope I find as many resources as I will need. I will search my local library and the KYVL. I am sure there are many resources that I will find as I move forward.

Hi! I understand how you feel. I wanted to get stuff of of the web so bad it seems like it is easier and I find more information about a topic on there. I have never been to our library and I felt odd as well going there not knowing anything besides what I was writing about but I just told them what I needed and they showed me where those books were. It was not as bad as I thought. I still feel like I do better with web sites more than I did with those books I got but thats what I have to use. I tried the KYVL and I could not get any of the books to pull up all the contents. I could find books I just had to go to the library to find them. I also was told you can go to netlibrary.com and there are thousands of ebooks to view go check out. Good luck and if you need help with the web site let me know and I would be glad to help you if I can.

Hi, I'm Kerry, I wanted to tell you that I enjoyed reading your blog. I am so glad I'm not the only one who is nervous about the next paper! 5-7 pages seems like a stretch, but even when I get a 4 page paper assigned, I usually end up with more, so we'll see how it goes.
I'm glad that I wasn't the only one who was helped by the peer review. It would have been more helpful if you would have gotten more comments but at least it helped some, huh?
I am you and the other fellow students have an open mind when it comes to the paranormal. I think the more intresting and open the class is the better! Lets hope our grades reflect that !!
