Studying for the Midterm

     I really have no idea what to post here, since all we talked about was information for the midterm.  I am working on studying for that now.  

     I did my first interview already, and the person has written the paper.  We've both been busy, so he hasn't given me the information yet, and I haven't been able to do the second interview.  

     I realized something about my own writing last week.  I like helping others fix their errors, but I hate fixing my own.  I have always had a problem with tense.  I flip between past and present often throughout a paper.  Teachers have called me on this, but none have helped me fix it.  Last week, I finally went through a paper and highlighted every verb.  I found there was no logic to my switching, it seemed very sporadic.  Unfortunately, I noticed another problem with my verbs - lots of passive voice.  It took me over an hour to do all the corrections, which was more than I am accustomed to working on verbs in my own paper.  I feel it helped me though, because now I'm having an easier time catching these errors in others papers.
