GEEZ PEOPLE!!! READ MY BOB # 2 AND VISIT THIS BLOG MORE OFTEN!!! I WAS EXPECTING 10 COMMENTS, BUT I'VE HAD ZIP!!! PLEASE VISIT MY BOB # 2 >='{
Anyhow, that's my ranting for today. I'm bored, so I thought, why not do the BOB now and not worry about it anymore? So here it goes.
Resources. This blog will be about the definition, purpose, and use of a resource.
Webster's defines a resource as a source of aid or support that may be drawn upon when needed. We often say in our bobs or comments that we don't understand a certain question, topic and so on. That's valid because we're not Einstein's (yet), but as responsible students, we are supposed to do all we can to find the answers to our questions. We can't just sit and wait; we have to scrutinize our notes, maybe ask our teachers or parents, go to our blog, read the book and so on. These are just some of the resources available to us. The concern is, we aren't making use of these, isn't that right? Mr. K, in the beginning of the year, said that there was a student who claimed, "Mr. K, I don't know what to do. I'm failing your class, although I listen intently to your lectures...", or something to this effect. "Well," Mr. K said, "have you been doing your exercises? Have you formed a study group? Have you tried to ask me for clarification on some of the questions you have?". To all of these, the student said no. This student only has himself to blame for his failure, because all the help he could have gotten was around him, but he did not make use of them.
Well, it's the same for us. Point is, WE HAVE MR. K, WE HAVE A BOOK, WE HAVE THE INTERNET, AND WE HAVE A (FRIGGIN) BLOG! Let's take advantage of all of these. I must keep this in mind, as much as all of you do.
oh oh and... READ MY BLOG # 2 AND COMMENT =)

Hi lani! Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it. I wasn't yelling; I just highlighted and blew up the headings of my bobs to get attention.
Rest assured that I don't mean to be an expert, it's just my style of writing. Probably a product of my English classes here, which has influenced the way I write greatly. English isn't my first language, so I just probably didn't have an inborn style. Haha, if you visit our class (which would be amazing), you'll know that I'm not, and don't mean to sound knowing.
I thank you for your comment for reminding me that this blog has a WORLDWIDE audience. It's just hard to grasp that. I'm still stuck on thinking that only my classmates and Mr. K read the posts, and I think they know me enough not to come to the same conclusion as you did. Thanks again!
