Dear Angie's Spring 2008 Students:

First of all I would like to say that I really learned a lot in this class and actually enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. That is something to keep in mind throughout the semester.

I really enjoyed working on a real client based project. The client for our class was the American Haitian Foundation. For the client, we first had to prepare a proposal for a new Web site. After a proposal was selected the class collectively created the AHF Web site. Writing the proposal is a task that takes time and thought. My advice to you is to start working on the proposal as soon as you get any information. My group did this. We met once a week to work on the project. At first, I thought I would hate doing this. However, we had our proposal completed a week ahead of time and I was never once stressed out about it. The quality of work was also better since we were not simply throwing the proposal together at the last minute. Our proposal was chosen and is the basis for the new AHF Web page. Even if you do not think you have any computer skills that would be useful in building a Web site, do not worry, I did not either. However, there is a lot of other work that goes on behind the scene to build a Web site and there is something for everyone to do. It is very rewarding to know that you helped build a Web site or do a project that is going to benefit a non-profit organization worthy of support. My advice to you is to be a good group member. Volunteer to do work and have your work turned in on time. This makes everything go smoother.

As far as other work goes in the class, such as your resume and presentation, do the work as best you can when it is first due. If you need to make changes to it, then make changes as soon as you get feedback. If you do it right the first time, it saves you a lot of time and trouble throughout the rest of the semester.

Lastly, my advice to you is to spell Web page and Web site like this: "Web page" and "Web site" not website or webpage. That is immediate points off.

Good Luck and Enjoy Business Writing with Angie! She is a great teacher!

I WILL GO

I love how when you are going through something in your life there is always a song to get you through that time. This song by Hillsong Church London has made my day and week because it is upbeat and continuously reminds me of the Lord's love for me. Here is the song. I hope it is as encouraging for you as it is for me.

I WILL GO

I have found myself in you
Your purpose for my life
I have discovered who I am
As your spirit touches mine

Every step I take
Every move I make
You are by my side
And I will be strong
My strength is in you

I will go where you want me to go
I will do what you want me to do
I will go where you want me to go
I will be who you want me to be
Anything for you

When you ask me I will go
You sure went before me
In your word I find the truth
You lead me on this journey

Every step I take
Every move I make
You are by my side
And I will be strong
My strength is in you

I will go where you want me to go
I will do what you want me to do
I will go where you want me to go
I will be who you want me to be

I will go where you want me to go
I will do what you want me to do
I will go where you want me to go
I will be who you want me to be
Anything for you

Those who trust in you
Ever praising you
Will find their strength in you
Their gonna make it happen

I will trust in you
Never stop praising you
Will find my strength in you
I’m gonna make it
Make it
I will

I will go where you want me to go
I will do what you want me to do
I will go where you want me to go
I will be who you want me to be

I will go where you want me to go
I will do what you want me to do
I will go where you want me to go
I will be who you want me to be
Anything for you

This also reminds me of one of my favorite scriptures.
Philippians 2:13 - Because God is working in you to help you want to do and be able to do what pleases Him. (New Century Version)

Be encouraged! HAVE A BLESSED DAY!
