My 35th Reflection May 21st 09

Today, my strategy was to finish typing up my essay, then start editing since I knew I was gonna go over the limit. I took away the word count again, so I would look at how many words I had written. In the end, I did finish writing my essay, the only problem was that I had written over 1700 words. This meant that I had to do some serious editing. I had a bit of trouble actually editing my work. I thought all my information was relevant, so I had a hard time picking the bits which I didn't need. But I did actually finish editing my work and ended up with 1499 words. Which is below the limit so I'm not worried anymore. But now I have to go over my work and check for errors. When I stopped editing, I also started to slack off and started talking to my peers which made me lose valuable time.
