Writing

This past Saturday, I spent the better part of three hours writing a simple 250 - 500 word summary of an educational summary.  Why did it take it so long to complete?  Well, I have not written in the APA style since undergrad, almost 12 years ago, for one thing.  I analyzed and over analyzed that I was plagiarizing my work as well!  Grand Canyon University has a policy in which all students submit papers to a website called Turnitin to check the validity of the student's work.  The lower the number, the better, just like in golf.  My first submission came back with a score of 3 - I was so excited!  I just hope that my next writing assignment will not take as long :-)

Modern day slavery - enough said.  What are your thoughts on this atrociousness?

I am so proud of my sister, Heather Nicole Fipps Hardee, for passing her first major exam in Nursing School!
