I just wanted to take the time and say....

This has been a really great class. I've learned a lot and had some good laughs in this English class. The essays really got me to think and write creatively yet effectively. The blogs allowed me to express myself and to voice my comment and opinions about the class. Peer evaluations allowed me to find corrections and mistakes on my own as well as my classmates essay in order to better us understand the concepts of grammar. Most especially that influenced and intrigued me from this class was the storytelling festival. I enjoyed very much. The people painting their graffiti was great and it was just really good to see people paint like that. Marsha, you did a great job teaching this class and I really enjoyed this class. Tim, you're a really good TA. You took the time to read through my whole paper so I can refine it to make it top notch; thanks for everything, even that day you taught the class, it was awesome. To my fellow students, it was great learning with you in this class. And to Section A, it was great have you guys this year. It was a really great year with you guys, we all laughed and had good times, but we also got through some beef that we had with each other. You are all really good people and I wish the best for all of you. See you around school next year and the year after that and after . Most importantly, wherever you guys go in life, I wish you the best and good luck. Thanks for being the best section in the world, so far. Take care. Peace and love.

Haha, oh Gian. Ok, well I also wanted to say that this year was pretty fun, and I did learn a couple of things. Even though I did not enjoy some things about the class, like the book Eat Shoots and Leaves, I feel like i learned something from The World is Flat. It was something that i usually don't have an interest in, but since I had to write about it, it gave me a chance to learn about something that I would never really care about. But this class was fun and interesting. It gave me a chance to write about what I wanted to write about. The narrative essay was my favorite essay to write. It gave me a chance to write about myself. In our Critical Analysis class, we always had to follow a strict outline of what to write about, but in this class, we get to write about what we think and how we feel about something. It gave me a lot more opportunity to put my voice in my writing. I just wanted to learn a little bit more on how to write better. I obviously have some organization problems that I need to fix, and maybe learn how to structure my essay better. But overall, I feel like I did learn something important. This class gave me a chance to learn about something and then write about it. It was just writing about nothing.

Haha. Oh Carol and Gian. I agree with you guys. i think that this class has definately opened my eyes to everything around me and my everyday life. I think i learned the most in the group discussions and getting everyones opinions and point of views. Honestly, this class was really easy but i think out of all my liberal classes, i learned the most in this class. I like how i got all the help i needed and tons of feedback. Tim especially helped a lot and he know his stuff. Tim, youre gonna be an excellent writer some day and im going to buy all your books! Thanks for everything guys!
