Well, we’ve reached the end now. After weeks of pouring over stories, epics, and poems we have completed this semester. I really enjoyed this semester and all the stories we have read,especially Beowulf and the Tempest (they have to be my favorite) The class itself was fun, especially when we got into smaller groups to discuss something about the text. I found that when we did this, I liked having to bounce ideas off of others and was able to get to know my peers a little better.
This blog was interesting task, it was the first time I had to do something of this nature and for me, it was difficult to remain on top of updating it. However, I think that this aspect was difficult for me only because I had been trying to distance myself from the internet this term and I had to actively remind myself to write a blog post. However, when I did get into the swing of writing a post, I found that it was really nice to have a space where I could write my rambling thoughts that had some vague connection to the course. I think this was a really good idea, but I would suggest having various due dates or check in dates for the posts.
But now that we are done, I just want to say thank you for this term. I hope you have a wonderful holiday season.
