It’s almost the end of the
semester. One more week left, and realizing now it felt like time flew by so
swiftly. English Class, hands down is
one of my favorite classes right now.
We’ve all been through so much this semester. Studying for midterms, doing papers, and even
competing for classes.
As I look back to this semester, I
remember the first time Caitlin announced to the class about free-writes, and
blogs. My initial thought was, “This is
going to be such a pain in the ass.” I was never a writing fanatic. I never took any writing assignments
seriously. As I got into free-writes;
however, I realized that it was not as terrible as I would make it seem to be. Free-writes and blogs were a great
experience. It allowed me to open up to
new ideas. It allowed me to let my
thoughts and feelings out. It also
allowed me to realize that writing is not as boring, and dull as it seems. As weeks past, writing actually became fun to
me. I would write on my leisure time, in
the bus, in my house, and heck even in my bathroom. This also factors into blogging. I initially
thought that blogging would be okay, just a do it and never look back kind-of
assignment. But as weeks past, sharing
our blog posts’ to other people became interesting. People talked about things we all can relate
to. Some were funny, and some were
serious.
Overall, English 114 was a great
experience. As I mentioned before, this
by far was my favorite class this semester.
I’m really going to miss the class, and all these blogs we’ve been
sharing together. I hope we all do well
for finals week, and may the odds be ever in your favor. Peace out!
Haha, I like the hunger game pictures. I felt exactly the same way you first felt about free writes and blogs and even how you felt after actually starting them.
ReplyDeleteI like this because I can completely relate! I too thought blogging would suck but it was not as bad as I thought because I could write about whatever and most peoples were really funny and interesting. The only thing I didn't like was the word count...which I tried to follow as best I could haha
