Memorandum Thoughts

I already blogged about the Memo but I will update my blog. Upon reflecting on the blog, I feel that I could have written a better paper than what I produced. By the end of writing it, I had the feeling of being so burned out. I spent 3 hours with my group in the library writing the beginning of the paper and then probably another 5 hours on my own time. SO, needless to say, at the end I was done! I think I could have done this assignment better if I just wrote about the articles I read. I felt like in my memo, I spoke the best about the article I read. When I was writing about the articles my partners read, I felt as though I did not have complete understanding of what I was writing about. I do like how in the end my works cited looked really long as though I was really smart and had a lot of knowledge regarding the topic, hehehe. I like how I was able to use a lot of reserached material throughout the article, but felt like I was BSing at times in the article. Anyhow, I definitly spent a lot of time writing this memo and felt super stressed by the assignment because I felt like I was working just outside my zone of proximal development (as talked about in many articles). I guess it's good to challenge yourself and feel slightly uncomfortable in your writings because then you better yourself.
