These last six weeks have been very jam packed. I like starting off my essays during the first week so I can give myself time to get everything done without rushing, however this term I fell way behind. I have been so stressed out because of my tuition being raised an extra $120 (especially with me not working) and stressed about finding out that my career choice may be impossible to reach because of the fact that I cannot find a medical school that accepts online degrees. On top of all the stress this has been the worst term so far when it comes to the most work. This is the first time I have had to write two essays and the first time I have had to write a persuasive essay. This Comp class has so much work that it is hard for me to get caught up, for example this week we have an outline and a draft to turn in. I am not very good with outlines and it is hard for me to write a draft and make it completely different then my final paper because usually my drafts are pretty close to what I turn in. I really feel for the people who have to take care of their children and/or work because I know there is no way I can do it. I am on the computer working on my school work every day throughout the week about ten hours a day and I can barely keep up.

I have not completed my draft yet but I have had new ideas about my topic, in fact I just changed my topic again yesterday. I know this blog is probably suppose to be written when I am done with it but I really don’t think I will get finished with it until late next week sometime and I want to make sure I have this turned in, in case somebody wants to give me some advice on it. I believe I have an idea where my paper is going to go and I am starting to feel more comfortable with it. I am going to put off my draft as long as I can because I have an outline for this class and an outline for my anatomy class and I know those are going to be my obstacles for both classes and I need to give myself as much time to work on them as I can. I would like to get both outlines done by the end of the weekend which would leave Monday for my exam in my other class and do my draft on Tuesday so wish me luck on everything.

My ideas about the topic are very influential in later research because I want to get into the field of surgery and anesthesiology is something that all surgery requires. I wanted to learn more about the steps of the surgical procedures and this is usually where it starts. I have already learned a lot of things about anesthetics just by the researching that I have already reviewed and hopefully this essay will show that I did learn something.
