Second Day of Class
Today was the second day of class in Human Geography. We
didn’t get a lot of work accomplished, because almost everyone in the class
including myself was having computer problems. However some people had a LOT of
more problems than others. While, Mr. Schick was catching the class up, I talked
to the students sitting around me .I want to say the class period was a waste
of time , but if we didn’t get the whole class on the same page today , then
who knows how lost the class would be.
