Free write


I feel like this has been the longest week of my life. The weather went from being beautiful, back to snow and freezing walks to all of our classes. Its also one of my best friends birthdays this weekend. I always think that when you have something fun or planned coming up that it feels like it takes forever to get to that point. My Intramural basketball league started this Wednesday. I realized how out of shape I was after running up and down the court twice and finding myself huffing and puffing for air. This up-coming project has me pretty excited. I am debating on recreating a album cover for my favorite artists latest cd or putting a poster together for the TV series workaholics. I am a little confused on what the project is still and how were going to be using this first project later on. Im glad we got the opportunity to choose a subject that interests us. Right now im taking a accounting class and I think it is the worst class ever. I have zero interest in everything that comes out of my professors mouth and that class always seems to take five hours. Waking up knowing that today in English I was going to do something interesting makes it that much easier to get to class every day. In my writing I usually find it easier when teachers just assign me a topic to write about. I usually hate the idea of free writes. I hate free writes not because of the lack of imagination and ideas, I just can never choose a topic to write about. I hate the awkward moments when ten of us are all sitting around with tons of options but not one of your friends can decide on what restaurant you guys want to go to. I love how this class has options and is the complete opposite of my Accounting class.

  1. I love the show Workaholics, I vote you do that. and I like how this class is laid back. I feel we get more discussion with it being more relaxed. and I agree that this week has been long, it just needs to hurry up and be spring.

  2. I agree this was a long week. I personally did not find the weather to be pleasant at all. Also, why would you take an accounting class? Unless you are going into accounting and if that's the case it doesn't seem like you are very into it so might i suggest finding a different major that's fun. I was originally a business major and every business orientation put me to sleep so I changed to interior design and now I'm going into architecture. Just a thought. Good luck in accounting!

  3. I agree with you on all of your points.. except I'm not in Accounting, thank heavens. But I HATE when people cannot come to a decision about things and the weather could go back to being warm whenever it wants to, It's never too soon!!

  4. I'm really glad that you are enjoying this class and that English is of interest to you. I find that students (me, in particular) work much better and enjoy class better when you get to choose the topics. I hope that project one became clearer as we moved forward. I'm sorry it was tricky!

    Also, I'd die in an Accounting class. If you hate it though, you might want to switch to a major that is more interesting for you!
