Day in the life

Well, a day in the life of Alyssa Lauren Winkler. Monday through Friday, I get up at 5:20 to shower. Then I get dressed for the school day, then I wait until the bus gets to my house which is about 6:30. We drive all over picking up kids for school, I'm on the bus for about an hour and a half. When we finally reach school at about 7:25ish. Of course, 7:45 bell comes around and it's time for class. I sit through all my classes and get out of school at 3:20. I go to my bus and when it's time to leave I sit on the bus for another hour and a half or so, and wait until I get home. I get home, let my dogs out, get something to eat and start homework. Once I finish homework, I take a shower and get ready for bed. I go to sleep around 9:30-10:00 and start the cycle all over again.

On the weekends, I do whatever I want or whatever my mom tells me. I also do homework, go to conformation class at temple, and hang out with my family and friends.

Writing center learning

Going to the writing center was probably one of the best choices for the last paper. Although I thought my paper was perfect and nothing more could have been done, there were a lot of things I needed to fix. Having someone who is trained to read over papers to make them better makes me more comfortable with them reading and giving feed back other than someone else. Also I like that Christiane gave positive feedback rather than someone else saying that my paper is awful.

It also gave me a chance to have a second look at my paper. Christiane was not only helpful, she was relatable. She told me my paper was very good, but just fix a few things. She is relatable because she told me that she likes to be personal with the reader as well do I. So those are just a few things that connected us.
