Today in our groups we dicussed the options for our essays narrative/story-like, informative/formal essay, or a combination of both. Each member discussed who their intended audience was and also the purpose of the essay. For a few of us the purpose was trying to get to members to join our community and the audience was therefor anyone interested in becomming part of the community. Only on group member wrote an introduction, so we read it over and decided that we needed a more clear purpose in order to make a less general audience. At first we thought that our essay needed to be more story-like because of the excerpts/essays we have been reading, but then we learned that we just read them to give a spin on the types of academic essays we are used to seeing.
As far as the week that is almost nearly behind me, I got a chemistry test out of the way (although it wasn't the greatest experience). I am looking forward to the weekend. Tonight I plan to attend the women's volleyball game and cheer on my fellow Hokies. The rest of the weekend will hopfully go to getting ahead in class and relaxing. I sure hope the weather clears up. Rain tends to keep me locked in the dorm room : (
