Grade

Last class Sweeney gave us a writing assignment that was to be done while in class. It asked us to grade ourselves on contribution in class. I believe that I did my part in class and deserve at the least a 90 for contribution. During discussions I was never the first to raise my hand and give my opinion or really ever put my two cents in. I did a few times, but not always. I am a shy person and do not think I should be penalized for that. Especially when I have gotten my work done in a timely manner. I am not really sure if that counts since we did not have REAL deadlines for our work. I procrastinate just like anyone, but try really hard to do everything I need to. I also went to class. I never skipped class just because I felt like it. I missed maybe two classes at the maximum. I always read the stories before class. The only thing I did not read and finish was the novel, but I do not think Sweeney even finished. I attempted it and read at least 200 or more pages. I believe that I gave my best in class and that is all anyone can do!

Last day!

Today has been my last day of English class with Mr. Sweeney. We did not do anything, but did the evaluations. I gave him a pretty good evaluations, because I actually enjoyed his class, unlike any other English class I have taken. English is quite a boring subject, but I enjoyed almost all of the stories we read. Some of my favorites were "The Glass Menagerie", "The Yellow Wallpaper", and "Hills Like White Elephants." The dog poems were pretty cool too, because I love animals. Although, I am more of a cat person! He should look into some cat poems for his future classes, because I'm sure those are enjoyable. I hate writing papers and procrastinate too much, but I got through the semester. The best class days were the ones where we played games. The winning team got the most extra credit points for their essays, sadly I do not think I was ever on a winning team! :( We played Jeopardy and Taboo. I never participated in Taboo, because I hate getting up in front of people or having attention on myself, but I enjoyed watching everyone else play. Sporcle was also fun, just to pass the time. Mr. Sweeney is an awesome professor and everyone should take his class!
