Final Assessment

Dear Kim,
In spite of your continous technical problems you have posted some nice assignments. You need to get used to using the spell check because you have difficulties with spelling and mechanics (capital letters and punctuation). This is a simple skill that will improve your writing tremendously. Your English is very fluent. Well done!
Your final grade is 85.
Yours,
Karen Noll Stanger

diary

Diary :
10/5/09
Dear diary:
now 14 days 28 min & 8 seconds after my mothers death i decided to believe that my mums death is because of me ,maybe i didn't put enough pressure on her, maybe because i didn't take it seriously.
I'm scared mummy i need you & every time i look at the door of your bed room i fink i hear you mum ,& every time i go for a walk with Ellen i think i see you waving at me from the window.
Am i going crazy?
I fink Jason thinks I'm a Loony & the only reason he didn't break with me is that he pi
ttys me.
Maybe Ellen thinks that I'm also a loony?
I feel like the world is spinning with everyone inside it but I'm the only one that's not spinning with it.
I wish mum could read this and respond.
