Coool Cucumber

So I'm kind of upset about the quarter ending because well first off, it's one of my easiest quarters and second, I enjoy the classes I have right now. One thing I have really enjoyed the most are the Cool Writing presentations. I think it's a really neat way to get to know people and some of their favorite pieces. I like listening to people when they have analyzed a specific song or book, it's interesting to see what they take from the particular piece. It's especially intriguing if I have ever read or heard of the song so I can compare my thoughts with theirs. Mostly though, I haven't really heard of the songs people in our class were talking about so I couldn't compare, but it was just as fun to listen to their take. Haha.

Another thing I've enjoyed about the class were the blogs. I liked the blogs because it gave all of us the freedom to type out what we really feel about things on our own time. We didn't have to contribute in the class discussion on a certain day about a certain thing. The thoughts going through our heads sometimes can stray off into another land, but the blog gave us a chance to regain ourselves--talking about something we had discussed in class. I also liked how we could read what the other class was saying as opposed to asking Mr. Kunkle what the other class thought. It's really fun reading people's new posts, and I often just surf during study hall checking out blogs from weekends. I think this activity was an extremely good one and I recommend; Mr. Kunkle-- that you do it with all of your incoming classes. I give it a 'thumbs up'!!!

Peace =)
