Family, Friends, and the Weekend!

Today I had a sociology exam and lets just say I am now more than ready for the weekend to be here. I get to go home and see my family and I am beyond excited. As much as I love it here at WMU, it's going to be really nice to have a little break from everything. Another amazing part is that we are throwing a surprise party for one of my family members who just finished her fight with cancer and is now in remission!! It's going to be a phenomenal weekend with friends and family and I wouldn't have it any other way. Making memories with my family is something that I will always hold near and dear to my heart. I hope that you all have an amazing weekend as well! I will see you all tomorrow, and hopefully it's a little bit warmer as well!

Thursday post... On a Friday!

I know that a late post is not a good thing, but why make things negative? This week's Wednesday class was very interesting. I learned quite a bit about themes and how they each play an individual role within a given story. I enjoyed working in the groups and I think that the lessons were intriguing and fun to learn about. I think the essay is going to be a fun project and I really like the fact that we get to choose what movie to use for the essay. I look forward to sharing my work with the class and I will see you all next week!

Have a great weekend!

It's only Tuesday?

I got done with my classes today and I realized that it's only Tuesday... However, that's not a huge deal since I have some great plans for this weekend. I never really know what to write on these Tuesday blog posts. I hope the rest of you that are in my class have better inspiration than mine. But either way, I do think that these blogs are a great idea for an English class such as ours. It gives each student the opportunity to share their own individual opinions and ideas in an open and inviting environment. I really hope that my Thursday blog is more interesting then this one, which I think it will be. I hope you all have a great week and I will see all of you tomorrow!

What I learned this week?

This week I learned that there are many different ways to characterize someone within a story, whether it be the narrator or characters. I learned that the setting and mood of a story can have an extremely influential impact on the way that the story is told. I think that going through the different pieces as a class really helped us to express our individual views and ideas. This weekend I will be working on quite a few different projects for a couple of classes. For this class I will be working on an essay about a place that is special to me. I think this is a great topic because it allows us to really express ourselves as individuals. It will be interesting to see who or what everyone writes about in their essays. So I guess that's it since I should probably start working on my essay. Have a great weekend everybody!

This post is LATE...

So far today has been fairly boring, but since it's Monday that shouldn't surprise anyone! It was pretty chilly when I went to my first class this morning and it's supposed to rain while I walk to this class, so hopefully the weatherman was wrong today. Hopefully today's class is as interesting and funny as the other days have been. And of course, I plan on actually blogging on time for the rest of the semester! I'll see you all in class tonight, hopefully it's a dry walk!
