I thought my literacy narrative was proceeding smoothly. I thought I was almost finished with it, but after reading Dr. d's comments and realizing some huge errors, I feel like I am in a tragedy. The main point of my narrative needs to be fixed, meaning that I've got to come up with something different or changing/taking out something. I am a bit muddled as to how I'm going to finish revising the second draft by tonight. I also feel so stressed since I haven't started studying for my World History test tomorrow, either!
My group experience was fantastic. Everyone in my group gave me a tremendous amount of advice and told me things about my narrative that I hadn't realized before. Also, I was able to compare their narratives with mine and learn how I could incorporate some writing styles into my narrative. I think the writing group is truly helpful and beneficial. I hope we go through the writing group process for every major essay we are assigned to do.
For my outside reading, I read This is our Faith by Michael Francis Pennock. I haven't finished yet, but I'm really enjoying this book since I'm able to understand the basic principles of the Catholic religion that I never learned before. Even though this book is for adults, I feel connected to it and the good thing is that the book isn't very challenging to read, like the Bible. The very first chapter taught me things that I never knew about, and I was fascinated by the things that I didn't know.
This is our Faith, Michael Francis Pennock

I feel your pain, I always have another tab open and can never focus. My story seems to have about 6 main points to make, so don't feel as if you're the only one with a few errors. Good luck with it.
