The Last Reponse to Course Material

Well, this is it, the final stretch! As soon as spring break ended, the pressure, anxiety and all the other wonderful (extremely sarcastic) things that come along with AP's and ending the year, quickly set in. Although I am not looking forward to these next few weeks and the work and stress that will come with them, I am looking forward to them being over and overall nearing the end. As of this class, I feel the extra practice we have been doing lately has been very helpful and I am no longer very intimidated by the essays. I think doing so many practices, although they have been a bit of a drag, have also been extremely helpful to me in the fact that we are able to go over them afterwards and thoroughly compare our previous work so we know what to focus on next time. We have also recently finished reading and discussing Ceremony, our discussions seemed a bit rushed which of course is understandable due to the snow days and what not, however even with the lacking of time, I still feel I am able to confidently say I understand the overall ideas of Ceremony and could potentially use it in a essay. As soon as we were done reading Ceremony we moved right on to the Weebly assignment. I think this assignment was fairly beneficial to do because as I went into further depth of the masculinity in Death of a Salesman, I connected some things that I hadn't the first time around. I also think the creation of the website overall will be helpful to study other students essays for the exam. To wrap it up, we have just began 5th Business. I am excited to read this book because I have heard good things, I hope we are able to discuss it a lot. Anyways, that's all I have for now, I will now be hibernating for the next few weeks studying my brains out...! Good luck on this and any other AP's to whomever that may apply!
