Reflection: 1st Project of English 101

     I thought that for my 1st project in all of college I did fairly well and didn't procrastinate much at all. That thought lasted in my head until today when i finally got my laptop back from being fixed and opened it up to the blackboard only to realize that for the first time something was due on Friday, instead of Sunday and it just happened to be the biggest assignment we have had in class all year, lucky me. It is nowhere near being the professor's fault at all and I take full responsibility for not checking up on when it was due more often. I will now be getting deducted two letter grades on whatever grade that I do get and so unfortunately, I will not be getting a very good grade. But, I won't come out with this experience angry or regretful. Instead, I will take this as a reality check and realize that it is time for me to get very, very serious with every single class that I have in college and put school above everything. No more procrastination and no more BS'ing (excuse the language). My week will probably ruined to due to my ignorance and mistake but I will bounce back a much better, and more determined student. What I really liked about this project was being put into groups where we send eachother feedback online because we are all very intelligent students and I honestly found every piece of editing that my peers did for me useful. I don't really like the fact that everything is becoming online (like most people) but this is one of first, few things that I have liked that combine online interaction with the classroom. It is great and I would have no complaints if we were to use it again on our next project. It not only gives you feedback but it just simply keeps you writing and practice makes perfect! I did not really dislike anything other than my own mistakes, and I feel that this project was layed out very well, due to a very great professor of course!
