Outing #1 Chesterfest

Today was the event of Chesterfest. Chesterfest is a community event for all the businesses in the area to promote themselves as well as have food, games, and bounce houses for kids. I took my boyfriend and we walked around and looked at the different vendors. Some of the vendors were scenty candles, Chester Fire Department, Sand Art, Soy Candles, Thirty-One, Kings Korner BBQ, and many more. It was nice to see a lot of the Chester residents there supporting the community. It reminded me a little kit of Hooray for Hopewell.

Peer Editing

Peer editing can seem monotonous at times but in the end it is helpful. Even though when we read our own papers it looks good to us, it can be hard to pick out our own errors. That's when peer editing comes into play. Our peers can help locate our mistakes especially grammer and punctuation. Plus it gets us out of talking about the stories we read!!

Monday tour of the library.

We toured the library this past Monday. One of the librarians showed us how to search the RBC library website for literary research. She also showed us how to use and move the stacks machine. I learned that Richard Bland has a good variety of books, research, and a helpful staff.

A good man is hard to find

I thought this story was annoying at first. The grandmother got on my last nerve, she had to look her best no matter where she went, and her opinion also had to be heard. I think she is the main reason why they all died. Even though it wasn't her idea to go to FL in the first place, she still led her family down the wrong road. 
The misfit was a very confused person. I think he had a good heart, but i'm sure he had a lot of hurts growing up that's why he ended up like he did.
