After semester 1 of english has speedily flown by, I am going to have to go with true on that statement.  I really enjoyed English 213 and had fun with the many things we have done in class.  The topics that we have done in class are very interesting and thought provoking and I loved hearing and participating in class discussions on these topics, such as evil.  All of the different people in the class really lead to some interesting views, which is really important to a learning enviroment.  Another thing that I really enjoyed was when we did the MacBeth project.  Having a competition really motivated me and my group and made the project much more fun.  I really enjoyed working in groups and talking to people that I had never really talked to before.  By working together for a common cause of defeating McGeary, it really brought the class together.  And of course the blogs are a large part of sharing ideas and getting thoughts into writing.  I feel that the blogs really help in expressing ideas with worrying about being too informal for an essay or whether or not the ideas fit into the essay.  Writing blogs has helped me enjoy writing a lot more in the short time that we have been using them because it is much easier to share my ideas and still be open to ideas of others.  English 213 was awesome and I am sure that under Mr. Wasserman’s guidance, English 223 will be just as good or better.
