blog blog blog

Finally I get a break from work to write some stufff on my blog. I'm going to start writing on my personal blog page that I created freshman year, but what i have to say deals with this class so I guess we can post one on here.

To beging with I thought Modest Proposal was absolutely sick. I don't know if the author was joking or not but it sure seemed serious. I learned that the word papists means disparaging term for Roman Catholics. I also learned that people could be used for the "Art of good bacon." Ya I dunno buddy.

The Second article dealt with subjectivity and in me dictionary came out to be Bias. The author is just talking about bias. I didn't like when on pg.29 2nd paragraph she quotes "Nobody has ever asked us for our personal response to a book." I wrote a side not to myself saying what planet are you all from? When she talks about understanding symbolism in order to be considered good readers the author is thinking, or speaking from a linear point of view. In other words concrete thinknig and meanings. What she's looking for is for people who are going against the grain. My final thoughts on this piece are that this author wants us to enter the stroy, become the story, not read it. Yes, there's a huge difference.

The 2060 blog really got me thinking. Is that even a real year? Attainable? Yes? No? freaked me out a litte. This weekend started off a little bad. I get home and my laptops been crushed. I bought it when school started, and no HP will not fix it since I did the damage. Nope wasn't me but you get the point. I think I worry about things that aren't that important when I consider what will be going on in 2060. I'll get better soon. I guess I need a new laptop and maybe a nextel so I can beeep my classmates on where Fridays lab will be. I called a classmate and he didnt have service so he didnt answer. As soon as class was over I get a OH MAN SORRRY! ya ya. Blogging really helps get rid of that frustration. My 20 yr old PhD teaching me business cal that wants me to submit my HW online?!!??! and my Cal book that never arrived, like I said this and other personal issues that we go through are just small bumps on the road. We have 2060 to look forward to.... Damian out
