Weekly review, Week 14

 How did the reading go for you this week? What struck you the most in this week's reading? Were there ideas you struggled with? 
   Readings this week were interesting as I continued reading The Big Sleep.

Where did you do your best writing this week — in this class? In another class?  Have you discovered some good strategies for helping yourself focus on writing for this class?
     My favorite writing this week was for my Theatre class as we wrote about our favorite actor and did some research on them.  I also had to take an exam in one of my History classes that entailed 5 short answers about a book we read for that.  I was happy with how I did on that as well.
   
Did you read something excellent written by someone else in the class? What made it stand out to you? 
     I read some interesting interpretations on the book we read in History as we have weekly discussions about our readings.

How are things going in your other classes? Are there any connections you are noticing between your other classes and stuff you are doing for this class?
     Struggling with my math class at the moment otherwise all are going well.

What are your plans and hopes for next week in this class? In your other classes?
     Starting smaller assignments early this week since I have an exam this Thursday.  I want to make sure I plan out enough time to complete everything and have study time.

Literary Analysis Week 6

     Josiah Royce wrote about the early settlements of California and the atmosphere within the built up cities. He speaks of the structure of businesses and working men within these cities. What drives them, their vices, their motivations and their downfalls. We get a glimpse into the lives of early California settlers and the San Francisco area before it became the area we know and love today.      John Muir writes more about the landscapes and the beauty of untouched nature. Lands that have been previously undiscovered like Yosemite Valley. His many journeys throughout the country undoubtedly left their mark, but the Sierras also left their mark on him. He says the Sierras should be known as the “mountains of light.” He says that every rock in Yosemite seemed to glow. His connection to nature clearly drove him to continue exploring so that he may appreciate more of the lands untouched by men.      George Sterling also seemed connected wi...

Introduction

Hello Everyone,    My name is Rhiannon Pinson.  This will be my second semester at LMC as a Journalism major.  I am currently working full time as a restaurant General Manager and taking 19 units online.  I was born and mostly raised in California (lived a short period in Washington).  I have lived in several places in California including Santa Barbara and Martinez but now live in Brentwood.  We visited Seattle in Spring last year and seriously considered moving back to the state of Washington after this visit.      I am one of 3 children.  I have an older brother and a younger brother.  I have a daughter, three nieces, three nephews, and two cats.     I appreciate reading a variety of books but my favorite series is still "Harry Potter".  "Memoirs of a Geisha", and "The Help", are also in my top 5.  I enjoy watching baseball and hockey.  My favorite teams are the San Francisco Giants and th...

Week 8 Reading and Writing

     I still find navigating through all the different sites a little frustrating because different pieces of information are all in different places. A lot of the bigger projects or assignments don’t sync with Canvas and show on the “to-do” list so it takes some extra work to keep everything organized and finish on time. Having the extra credit available is helpful.  English has always been my strongest subject yet I seem to be struggling with this subject the most this semester.      Just staying organized will help with the rest of the semester as well as taking advantage of any and all extra credit available to make up for missing assignments or missed opportunities.
