SNOW DAY

Hoping everyone is just as excited for this day off! I just woke up an hour ago and it has already been the perfect start! Im catching up on a bit homework so I don't leave everything till the last minute but we'll see how much I get done.. Today is defiantly looking like a sledding day😊  The only downfall to all this snow is driving! I'm stuck on campus and desperately want food! Also, buy some extra sleds. It was a pretty stressful week with multiple papers due for multiple classes, multiple quizzes, and multiple exams that are being pushed off too next week! I was so excited to get pass all these tests but I have a feeling everything is going to be due the same day next week😩  I love having an extra day off just as much as the next person but I desperately want/need summer! We just started this semester and I'm more stressed than all my last 3 semesters put together.. I would say history stresses me out the most! I absolutely hate history because I am so bad at it, ever since grade school I struggled with the subject. And now, chances are that both my criminology and history exam are on the same day next week, Valentine's Day.. wooo! I truly believe that the history courses here at Lewis expect too much, theres essay papers before, during, and after the exam! That class is truly driving me crazy. However, my friend from Western University came out for the weekend and he had said that they did not even receive 2 inches of snow! I would hate to look at all my friends on social media enjoying their day off while I'm stuck in classes. Time to take a break on homework and go enjoy the hill behind my building, everyone be safe, have fun, and don't get sick!

Final Reflective Post

Dear Past Self,  I want you to know how far you have come since the beginning of freshman year, and even last semester, as a writer, presenter, and person. From freshman year, you were terrified of showing your work and letting teachers use your written work as examples to the class. You were shy and embarrassed of your writing, for what? I have no idea even now. However, you are not that same person anymore. You enjoy writing and sharing with others the pride you have for your work. You most defiantly strive and earn your grades.  I admire the picture above for numerous of reasons. When I saw it; I right away thought of myself. I know past self never valued the writer in her openly, but secretly she always did. This semester you have learned so much within yourself. I can honestly describe my growth as a writer as a; caterpillar throughout its stages into transitioning into a butterfly. To succeed in this class, revising, being prepared, training, communication, time ma...

Projects overview

Lately we been spending time with the textbook and getting into groups to write up proper written reports for our mock trials, our past project of different reports for Law Enforcement, and now we have started a new project of using non-fiction clips of lawn enforcement incidents, and basing a whole report as we were the officers on duty. We have to write a report on any of the 4 types of written reports offered and basically tell the story to the "public". With that we have include all information but try to be as concise as we can. Concise and gets to the point. I like how we have to use our imagination and practice typing these types of reports so that we can avoid grammar errors and avoid huge conflicts/s scandals in the future. I really like how again we're not individually writing a report or writing a 5-7 page paper on a incident. I think it's more efficient to work together and write the report together so that we can teach each other and learn from one anothe...

End of the Semester

The end of the semester is literally right around the corner! For our final project in class we are conducting another police report on a different set of videos. I also like these projects compared to writing an entire 5-7 page paper layout. These writing projects will actually give practice for the future, because reports are a huge part of the criminal justice system. There are many types of reports, they're are type 1, type 2, type 3, and type 4. Type 1 is the most basic and type 4 reports are the most complex. With that they're a bunch of different incidents that could result in writing a report. One incident could have multiple reports to it. From doing these projects I have been learning the difference of these reports though they might seem similar. Type 1 reports solely records facts. It is not an arrest, it's all facts from witnesses, victims, and suspects. This would include incidents of a missing person and non-violent incidents. Type 2 is the exact same as type...
