Well this week is the last week for blogging, so I felt the need to write a final entry. I’m going to miss the relaxing feeling of being graded on whatever’s kicking around my cranium. Blogging is a really enjoyable experience where you can talk about whatever you want and not necessarily back it up with sources and extra information.

Maybe I’m just procrastinating doing my research paper, who knows. I really enjoy creative writing and opinion papers more than research papers. I should probably go to some Arts Advisors to see about my major. The courses I enrolled in for my first year ranged from snooze-worthy to jumping-out-of-bed-to-go-to-class worthy. The courses felt a bit like Grade 13 at times but I think it’s a good way to ease you into University life.

I think the courses encompassing a CAP stream help you realize what matters most to you when it comes to learning, and what you’re most passionate about. I look forward to concentrating my studies more next year. Film Studies, and Music History were fantastic courses, especially due to my keen interest in them. ASTU was always jumping around with subjects that interested me, and some not so much. I really enjoyed reading Watchmen, for some reason it resonated with me. Women Studies felt a bit negative toward a lot of the things I love, like film, television, and video games, but still was interesting. Journalism feels a bit needless to me, I had hopes for more actual journalisitc writing instead of just the concepts of journalism. Oh well.

I have about two more months left of school after this upcoming reading break, and this blog will be really cool to look back on in the future. Hopefully I pass Psych, and enjoy the rest of my first year. Blogs have a capability to connect with not only yourself, but with others. I think that’s a great thing to encourage in a University environment where connections are fundamental for learning.
