Revising

I have been working for the past week or so (before thanksgiving break not during) on my final portfolio. I decided to give myself a break over thanksgiving and I didn't work on revising any of my essays. On Monday I received a lot of good advice on revising my website. I will try to work on the fixes that everyone in class gave me ideas about to make my website better. I want to use my website, research essay, and personal essay in my final portfolio. I have done the grammar and basic fixes to my personal essay. I still need to fully revise it and put a "new face" to it. I have done some of the big revising already to my research essay. I did Dr.Ballenger's idea of cutting up the essay and moving paragraphs to make your essay more cohesive and help it flow better. I did actually move around a couple of paragraphs. I think my essay makes more sense now and I am happier with it. However, I still need to work on changing both of my essays more. It is hard for me to do more than just the easy to see fixes. I will try to use more of Dr.Ballenger's tips about revising from the blog.
