Final Final Blog...
In class today, Brother Clarke asked everyone to raise their hand if they're stressed out. Everyone raised their hand. (End of semester stress...) Then he asked us to do something for someone who is more stressed out than we are and then blog about it. So I asked fellow student, Willow Kantrow (who works part-time and who takes 5 classes) if she'd like some dinner. She said "Yes!" So we went to Costa Vida, one of my favorite places to go. She said she loves it too! Willow has been so fun to get to know this semester. She is smart, funny, and was a great partner to have for our GoPro group presentation. I love going to BYU and the reminders we get from wise professors to look and see others instead of focusing on ourselves. Peace out MCOM320.

Final Blog
For my last blog I just wanted to write about this class. Communication has always been a weakness of mine. I worried about taking this class all throughout school, and I am taking it towards the end of my education for that very reason.
Being able to speak in a way that not only gets your point across but represents how you really feel is so important, but has always been so difficult for me. I've always done a little better in written communication. But after this class, I feel like I can do both so much better. My grammar and sentence structure is better, and I was even able to do a few oral presentations for this class. I actually quit college years ago because I didn't think I could give an oral presentation, and this semester I did two!
I am really grateful for professor Clarke. He set the tone at the very beginning of the class that made me believe I could do this. He encouraged us, taught us well, and has a great sense of humor. The things I've learned in this class have given me the most applicable life skills thus far. I can't say enough how much I've loved this class!
