I was not enthused about going to a crappy community college in Cambridge but I would have
to make due.
I had taken a summer course to try and ease myself back into school life and I was pretty nervous
about having to walk in that day. Things were definitely not what I expected them to be. Most of the
students in the class were pretty laid back and so was the Professor; besides, American Politics and
Government, how hard can that be?
All in all it was an uneventful FIRST day. I am going to attach a file to this blog that I would like people
to check out though. This is an essay I wrote my first FULL semester at ARCC about a learning experience
in my life. It is much more entertaining than this blog post so anyone who cares to check it out...cool. (I also
won the ARCC writing contest with this essay so yeah, its that good!)
Grade: 7/10

• Should be 10
• Words like "high school" and "professor" don't need to be capitalized because it's not a proper name. You would capitalize if you were saying "Cambridge High School," for example. Also, the names of classes (like those of school departments), don't need to be capitalized. X4
• Spell out acronyms (ARCC) the first time you use them and put the acronym in parentheses behind it. Don't expect your readers to know what you're talking about. This is the way to write the sentence: “My first day at Anoka-Ramsey Community College (ARCC)...”
* Good for you for making that giant leap to go back to school after being out for so long. I hope you become a lifelong learner, Michael.
