Unit 5 blog response personal writting


         Discuss your personal writing process and see what others have to say about your style.
1.       When writing a paper I first do the research and read each piece of my research. I then begin to just write. After I have finished writing my thoughts and what knowledge I have gained I then go back and refine my writing and add cited material.
         If there was one thing about your academic challenges, what would it be?
2.       My number one academic challenge is time. I have three boys who each have their own schedule which I have to adapt to mine as I have to get them to whatever it is that they are doing, I also work full time nights, and I have a farm that needs tending to. My family tries to help as much as possible so that I have time for everything but sometimes it is just not possible. I have researched time management and strategies to time management and tried to use a few some days it just seems like there is just not enough time in one day to do everything.
         How is school influencing your life at or up to this point?
3.       School is influencing my life at this point as a good thing for the fact that I am trying to better myself. But also it has its disadvantages for example I am at my sons soccer game working on the computer because I have work that has to be done and not enough time to complete it so I have to do it there. It is frustrating to me I have always put my children first and lately I kind of feel like I have put them on the back burner for school. In some ways I know I have to, to better my life and theirs but at the same time I hate to do it because they will only be kids for a while and then I will have missed everything with them growing up.
