Hello everyone! It's been a bit of a slow week on my end, not a whole lot exciting happening. I had a few job interviews which is a nice change of pace, but right now I'm in the process of waiting to hear back from them in one fashion or another, so that's just something slow on the side.
The main topic of this week had to do with punctuation, which is something that's been covered a lot since middle school, so a good deal of it wasn't all that new to me. Going over the semicolon again is always helpful. While it's something I've been over many times, it's also something that I forget constantly, so a reminder every now and then doesn't do anyone harm.
However, what I didn't realize until now was the differences between hyphens and dashes. To be completely honest, I figured they were just two different words meaning the same thing, given how similar the two look to one another. But no, hyphens are used to join words together while dashes are meant to be used parenthetical statements. So that definitely was something new I learned on the punctuation side of things.
As for the rest of this week, I'll probably start the five paragraph essay due next week in the next few days, but besides that it's really just getting the work done for my other classes as well. Nothing to really write home about or anything. Just an average week of getting all the work done.
