My First Week

               Hello readers. I was a little confused with the whole blogging process and posting to our G+ community, so this is a bit late. However, I vividly remember my first week, so the timing doesn't take out any of the truth or feeling in my writing. I would first like to say that although my first week of college was a confusing adventure, this English class surprised me even more. I didn't quite understand how science and writing could possibly be linked together, especially not in the course of an entire semester. 

               On the other hand, I also found this very interesting and I thoroughly enjoyed one of our first activities- choosing pictures and attempting to answer the questions posted on the pictures. It was a fun chance to test my scientific knowledge at random, though I know we weren't actually expected to fully understand the answer to the questions we were given. I may be wrong, but I think the purpose of the activity was mainly to provide "food for thought". This, along with our impromptu games and activities that helped us get to know each other, drew a definite separating line between this class and any of my other English classes in the past. I was expecting ten page papers; instead I've already found that this method may be more effective than others in showing me that writing is more of an expression, rather than reciting facts you already know. Maybe I'll even learn more about myself.
