0_o ??? Oh no!

It'll be March this Monday and i haven't started my term paper yet(Oh! no). Last Wednesday and Friday, there's no class in English 2 because last Friday is a Muslim Holiday and Wednesday, i don't know why there is no class.
It's really hard to find references for my term paper, I've searched in the library and in the internet but i only got few reference book and not less than ten(10) references from the internet. Hope that I could make my term paper before the dead line and do it right as well. "May GOD help us and guide us in making our term paper."

..another group activity..

I was absent last February 5, 2010 because i got sick. I really thought that the outlining group activity was done that day. Last Wednesday, February 10, 2010 we have another activity (outlining activity). We were divided into groups again, new group members and new friends.
I really forgot who were my group mates in that activity. I got scared that I would not be able to join that said activity. Thanks to my marker, group 4 accepted me as their group mate(hehhe...joke).
I really was thankful to group 4 and to my friend who belong to this group for accepting me as their group mate. Each group showed and explained to the class their works and the other group who are next to them would evaluate their mistakes and ask them.

...i must start making my term paper now...

This is really the time to start our term paper. Last Wednesday, February 3, 2010, Ma’am Lynnie checked our thesis statement for our term paper. She asked us individually. In order to defend our term paper, we must have a strong thesis statement that could support our research and to make (10) ten pages of it.

At first, she explained what a strong thesis statement is. A thesis statement should not be too descriptive so that one could support his/her research paper.
I was really very nervous when ma'am stated to speak. She started asking people at the back and asked many questions why they have this thesis statement. We were asked one by one and when it's nearly my turn, I almost torture my classmate who is sitting beside me (joke..haha) because of nervous.

I really have to work hard to be able to finish my term paper on time. I really wish that my MaƱana habit (I’ll do it later habit) and my sleeping habit will not disturb me in making this term paper.

..January 29, 2010 activity..

Last week, we discussed about the APA (American Psychological Association) format of references. This reference format is use for our research paper. Because we are not so familiar of APA format, our professor teaches us the new and proper format for APA. We even had an activity on writing APA format last Friday January 29, 2010. Before the activity started, ma’am gave us a photocopy of APA format-6th Edition which we pay 3 pesos. This library guide has a lot in it. There are many examples of APA format for book, journals, magazine, and newspaper and etc. We are grouped into 4, ma’am gave different books to each different group representative for us to search the important details of the book and write it in APA format in the Manila paper. After checking our works, we only got 8 but it was really fun and we learn a lot from it.
