Wow, I'm so glad work shops are all done.  It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.  Hopefully I can get all my re-writes done soon.  I'll try to look at everyones critical responses to see how I should I improve them.  It suck that we only got to get three poems in, when the portfolio is four poems.  How lame is that right?  And some people got to sneak in an extra poem by default.  That didn't seem fair at all.  Is anyone else having trouble getting all this done.  I have so many other classes asking for so many other assignments all in this last week.  So very crazy right.  I am almost done with my power point presentation  for tuesday.  I hope I am under 10 but above 8 min.  I guess i'll have to time myself when it's all done.  I think it was too much asking for 250 words for each 15 pages.  Trying to think about what to say in all that was in my opinion a big waste of time when i could have just been working on the presentation.  Or other work from other classes.  And on top of that, I had to remember to get this blog in too.  There are too many thing to think about getting in on these last weeks to worry about extra little knit picky stuff like this blog.  but here it is.   In my honest opinion, I didn't think the blog aspect of the class was effective at all, but more so distracting.  Most people are just commenting their two comments they need , writing some quick blog in the same way on pretty much the same topics.  Muse writes, workshops, presentations, and such.  all the same.  I doubt anyone other than the teacher is reading these except skimming to respond quickly to someones post just get it done.  This was my hardest class this semester and it was a gen-ed for me.  Why was this my hardest class???  It shouldn't have been.  But all these little extra things made me really hate poetry and not enjoy this class that much at all.  And that's the Double TRUTH RUTH!!
