This past week, our English class has been working hard on our global issues projects, with a plan to have the final draft of our paper due sometime next week. I am enjoying this process, because of all of the things that I am learning while researching. Because of my trip to Boston, I was a little tripped up while working on this project, but luckily I have pretty much straightened everything out. I spent about 1 1/2 hours on my plane ride up there working on my paper, but it was helpful to have already done some of it in the class time allotted. I also worked for about 45 minutes on Sunday night, just making sure that things were on the right track for my rough draft.
Along with the G.I.P., we are also starting another book, Nervous Conditions. It is narrated by Tambu, a Zimbabwe native, as she tells us the story of past events in her life that have, in a way, rid her of her nervous conditions. I read chapter one in about 30 minutes, fully annotating and looking out for important things in the book. So far, it is really interesting, and I am enjoying this book a lot. I can't wait to get into it a little bit more!
