Thlog #2 redo

Alright guys so I’m redoing this thlog because I just don’t feel like the first one captured the truth about what has been happening.  What I really needed to talk about was what I am learning in my classes.  Alright so where do I start.  In my writing 2 class we are starting our WP #1.  We have to write about a topic and then identify a certain genre with that topic and talk about its conventions and why it can be explained through this genre.  At first I had no idea what to do, how to do it, or even know what was going on.  However, through careful work, steady examination, and a little help, I was able to get a grip on what my class was talking about with our genre topics.  I hope I will be able to be successful on my first WP #1.  
In class we were also studying the difference between hyphens and dashes.  Now i thought this was kind of off the wall, just to be teaching us this randomly right before a big paper, but I know it will probably come in handy when I have to use it.  We also learned not to plagiarize, because we could get kicked out of school.  And I do not want that to happen, so i think I will use a proper works cited page so that I don’t have anything bad happen to me.  
One thing that reminded me about my writing assignment, was the lab I had to do in oceanography.  I realized that labs can be its own genre…..I think.  But, anyways after that I identified that some of the conventions were that labs had the math problems, and the conversions, and the examples.  So after identifying this, I felt pretty good about myself.  
So as always thank you for reading and I hope to see you again next time.
