Thinking back
Favorite assignment.........
Personally, my favorite assignment would have to be the buried life project because it was a fun and you got to be creative with it and it sort of made me think what I want to do before I leave the physical world because before I didn't really know what I wanted to do I just went by day to day living my normal kind of life going to school and not really thinking what I wanted to do . This has really changed my mind set because it let me think and do thing that I don't normally do and sort of kind of explore and think WOW I'm just living a normal life like everyone else . Well that;s going to change because I don't want to live a normal life I want to be different then everyone else and do things no one else has done before I don't like being the same I like being different and I feel like by going day to day and not even relaxing that school , work has got in the middle of it and I just get caught with everything that I don't have time well today is the day that I'm going to make time and change the way I; doing things because I want to be able to live a long life and be able to accomplish everything that I ever wanted to do.. Personally , I think why this assignment is TBL because it has opened up my eyes and made me realize that I was just as normal as everyone else and now I just want to be different form everyone else.
Least Favorite Assignment
Personally, my least favorite assignment was the twitter fiction because for one I don't really like twitter to begin with and it wasn't very fun and I had a hard time keeping up with it. Even though its easy because its a click of a button but I don't like it and I think that twitter is over rated and everyone has it even though it fun to get connected to celebrity we weren't using it for that we used to to create twitter fiction which I didn't like because I thought it was boring no offence it was just my least favorite overall I enjoyed every other assignment. Why? I think it was just not very fun because I had a hard time creating a fiction story because I didn't know how to start it every time It didn't sound good or I wasn't a fan of it so if I didn't like it then who would kind of thing because I tried writing a story over an over again and I wasn't confidante with it I didn't think that anyone would enjoy my twitter fiction story if I didn't enjoy writing it at all .
Fridays reading\/
Personally , I really enjoyed the Friday reading classes because they were very relaxing and a good way to end the week with a nice and settle quite class. All though sometime it was hard staying on track I was able to because it was a nice soft atmosphere and I loved the book I was reading so I think that helped stay on track with the reading classes and I think the fact that our reading classes were on Friday was a good day to have them because it was the end of the week and a good way to end ti because during the week personally I was so busy with work and other thing it was a good break from all of the normal work that we had been doing in class which was good becuase once again it was very relaxing
Mondays Reflection?
Personally I thought that Mondays reflection was a good way to start the Monday of because I found that it was were easy for me because I had used all of the different sort of strategies throughout the Fridays reading classes so it was easy for myself to complete the assignment that we given and not only that but because I was productive throughout the Fridays reading classes which had helped though the long run because
The writers notebook
Personally , I had a hard time keeping track of that and I didn't really like it because I personally wasn't very organized with it so it assent my favorite thing in creative writing .I think if I was more organized with the writers notebook it would of been easier to keep track of it because I would of been able to pick out thing that I like and didn't like .I thought that the writers notebook was a creative idea and a good way to keeping track of these throughout the course even though I didn't keep up with it I think that its a good idea.
Blogger - Personally I enjoyed blogger but overall it was kind of hard keeping track of everything because we got a significant amount of assignment per day that it was hard getting everything updated on time all though I pulled it off I had to pull a lot of all tightener other wise it would be submitted at a later date which I had to do a couple of times but everything had it own way of working out . Over all I enjoyed using blogger I thought It was a good way of keep track of all of our assignment thoughout the course. The assignment that we got for the most part we fun to do.
Tweeting / technology - Personally , The tweeting portion of creative writing I wasn't a major fan of because I'm used to going on twitter on my own account even though I not a fan of it I have an account costume made how I like it and I thought that twitter was to much because I thought that this course was going to be more about creative ways of writing and more physical activity not using the internet so much . I would of enjoyed more hands on projects because I like being creative . Not only that but because my image that I had coming into the course was a little different of the out come in terms of during projects and being creative because throughout creative writing we used a lot of technologies which I wasn't a big fan of because keep track of every single site and page is hard when you have a lot of things to do and other classes all though I pulled it off it was harder then I thought all though the assignment were fairly easy just keeping track of everything was sort of difficult even though I pulled it of . My though on the technology portion . I think that we used a lot of technology and I feel as if that I would of been fun doing more hands on projects and less technology don't get me wrong I enjoyed most of the assignment that we had done thought the course I just sort of wanted more hand on type of projects because coning into this course that's what I had in mind and I didn't think that it was going to be a bunch of technology
What I've learned - Personally, throughout this course I've learned a lot about myself that I really like to write but only thing that I enjoy doing and such . I also learned that I really do like reading but it has to be something that I;m interested in otherwise its a no go because before I wouldn't of thought about reading or to to pick up a book and read but I enjoy it now because I just had to find something that I really liked and being in this course I was able to do so. As a reader I found that I just need to take a chance and find something that I really liked so I was able to finish a book and I ended up doing so While reading it made me think a lot about whats next and opened up my mind because it made me think more .and helped me become a better creator though this course everything tied up and every little project helped tie in with something which is why I like that about this course..
