My Last Blog

How sad. I personally liked using the blogging system opposed to a journal. I never had a journal in school so I guess I would probably like anything besides that. I would like to say it's been an interesting journey through blogger and it will be missed, but I have all the memories to keep me going. Ok I'm being a little sarcastic but I'm serious about it being more effective than any other form of jounal. Goodbye blog.

Effectiveness of Workshops

I think these workshops were effective because I like to get feedback from different people. I think the feedback I got so far is really good so I'm looking forward to hearing about my RBAA.

This Weekend

Sucked. It was a constant headache and I felt like my head was spinning all day. No I wasn't drunk. My mother in law and my brother both flew in on Friday from Seattle. My brother flew in Friday morning in Sioux City, Iowa and we had to go to Sioux Falls, SD to pick my mother in law up that night. My brother stayed with my dad because my place was full. Let me give you a example of how the nights went: loud baby, loud house guest, loud arguing, and of course dinners with the whole family thats down here in this terrible place we call Vermillion. We had to run a lot of errands and my dad is the only one with the car so we had to work everything out and that was a headache itself. We dropped my brother off yesterday afternoon at the airport after we went to see my grandma in Iowa so I was on the road all day. Then when I got back the whole loud process started over for one more night and of course more arguing. My mother in law left this morning at 11am and now its back to normal I guess. Whatever that is.

Outline

I liked the concept of the outlines we worked on in class. After completing it I basically have my paper done I just have to add a few things. I think we should have this for every paper it really helps out.

Updated Thesis

Ursula Le Guin's "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas" represent how selish people can be in this world and also how very few people choose not to be in that category of selfishness by walking away.

Thesis

Ursula Le Guin's "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas" represents how selfish people are and for the ones who actually walked away represent the very few people in the world that refuse to be apart of such selfishness.

Reading Critically

This is the first time I actually went through a story and tried to find symbols or anything else that I thought had meaning. It's definitely time consuming but overall I think I did ok.
