LAT1_TASK 4 and 5

     I took off Wednesday to run some errands, and to put the final touches on my rough draft paper.They were looking for 10-15 pages, mine came in at 14 (including cover sheet and reference page). Using the track changes feature in word, I highlighted my errors, and than produced a short summary of  the resources I used to proof it, including Peggy reviewing it, and advice from my course mentor.I submitted it later that night and first thing in the morning, I was greeted with the news "Passed-excellent work". I love starting my day off with good news from the graders!
     Task 5 was basically the finished, proofed, corrected thesis paper. Using track changes once again, I just clicked on the apply option. I also had Peggy review it one more time. She was able to catch some errors I had overlooked. This gave me some extra time to review my conclusion and add some other facts to the paper. With baited breath, I submitted my 14 page thesis paper Friday night to the graders around 8:00pm. We than sat down to watch a movie. After the  movie I just had to peek at my email so see if there  was any response from the graders; I received the following response: "interesting topic, excellent work" "congratulations on your passing of this course!" That is the way to top off an evening!
    Now on to Introduction to Natural Sciences1. From what I am reading on the forums, it is a bit of a bear. Will probably start that Sunday or Monday. Have to work on my Honey-do lists today.
