not a good start

Well I had a good week long break from English. I had a chance to apply for some jobs and get some rest. Now it is back to the usual English every Monday and Wednesday.

I am back for another installment of Business communications! After passing the last course with a 55% I am hoping to improve my mark this time around significantly. I enjoyed my short break from classes and feel rested and ready to give this class my all.

As some of you may have heard from me during class I spent my break hanging around my house and playing video games. I really improved my skill at killing terrorist on Counter Strike (a Half-life mod) and I stole lots of cars on Grand Theft Auto Vice City. I also went down to the USA with my Dad to fix and maintain our lot in Paradise. Paradise is just a few hours south of the border; we have a small undeveloped lot we use for camping. Another reason we went was to light of some fireworks and spend some time together. Me and my Dad don’t get to see each other as I would like.

We talked in class about ways to get to know people and some good questions to ask potential group members. I found that when I actually tried to ask the questions to Arluene when I was trying to get to know her they seemed very interview-like and I felt awkward asking them. I ended up just talking with her about common interests and I felt I got to know her better.

Posting my blog late was probably not a good way to start things for this class. I was very busy and didn’t get around to posting until now. I will try to get all the following posts done on time.
