what the hell.

Ok, so I have a lot to say, here I go. First of all, really like the literature we are assigned to read in this class. It really helps me listen to myself.....I think we are trained to only listen to authority and the most objective of ideas, yet in our heads, our ideas are subjective.
I really want to do well in this class, and I think that as the first college-level english class, we should really utilize this fabulous opportunity. I'M CEREAL ABOUT THIS!!!!!!!!!! Think about if we had remembered and worked on all the skills we have ever learned from the get-go...let's say second grade. Where would we be? I will be the kind-of obliged first to say much furthur probably. But, we are finally to a point where we are told to do what we want rather than play by the rules.
Here's a question that arises when I use the internet and a classroom to take a class;



How does the use of the interenet and the facilitation of it change the way we interact?
I think I want to look at the "cons" in this one guys. And the reason I want to do this, is because I don't want it to happen. Okay, so here we go, I think that we tend to communicate less seeing that our writing is exhibited, so because of this, we may have less of an incentive to communicate less face-to-face. And please remember , I am only being pessimistic to create awareness. I can't change the world with my blogs, no one can...but blogs/literature/songs can change people. What if I were to post very personal writings on my blog...then how would the way we interact change? How? It would be real writing wouldn't it? You see, eventually, we are all going to present this to someone else, and other people will read it. OUR GOAL IS NOT JUST TO WRITE A WELL-WRITTEN PIECE, BUT A PIECE THAT IS HONEST AND MAKES THE AUDIENCE FEEL SOMETHING. I think we all have a choice as to what to disclose in our writing...but who is to say we cannot present it as fiction, afterall, we already view most writing as a "Story." I don't want to get comfortable.
