Well, I'm not exactly seeing my advisory as a home away from home, unless you count me surfing the internet more there then at home. I see it more as a place to relax, take a load off and do something productive. I'm not very good at writing the essays, but they can be fun or unpleasant. I love the activities we do in class and the group meetings. I also think our spelling bees are pretty cool.
I'm not exactly the fastest when we make essays, getting sidetracked every other moment.If you were here, I would've just done that right now. I work better with music because it drowns out other distractions, but I have to be careful to not get caught up in it.
I like the activities in class because it helps me get a break from life and forget it for a few. I can relax when we are talking and listen to others and sometimes even put in a few comments by myself. It's probably the thing I get the least distracted in.
I think our spelling bees and other spelling related things are fun, but whats not fun is how I don't do the stuff. I plan to be (bee, get it?) more proactive this year, finishing my stuff earlier. In fact, if I did that, I wouldn't have missed the vocab and needed to get it from Michael whilst I was sick.
I think that this class has a strong potential to be a home away from home, it just needs a bit more effort on everybody's part before we can reach that goal (Hey, did you notice how you need to put an apostrophe after ever- just kidding.). I think that in a year or so it may just be my home away from home.
