2nd-Post 6

The next week after we lost the first round school was crazy. We began work on our research paper in College English that counts a whole lot of our grade, so of course it was very stressful and time consuming. I liked the way Mrs. Thompson broke it all down though. She gave us several steps to follow and spread it out over about 2 weeks. The topic was numbers and I chose 2012. More precisely, December 21, 2012--the end of the world. It was a very interesting topic and I learned a lot about the ancient Mayans who are the ones that first predicted the end of the world on this date. I spent a lot of time on it, but of course the most time was spent the night before I would be turning it in. :) Which I must add that I turned it in early and got 5 extra points. I made a 97 on my 2,020 word paper and I am darn proud of it.
