Week 12 English assignment

Throughout my life I have always hated English class; It has always been such a drab and the stories have always bored me. However, this year I can't really say the same, as I've actually enjoyed English so much that for once that it's actually my favorite subject. I have actually learned to analyze stories or poems and I try to understand the meanings instead of just allowing it to go in one ear and out the other. The stories and poems were also interesting this year, I'd have to say i enjoyed Young Good men brown the most, probably cause it ties into witch craft and that's sort of interesting to me. 

They both die in the end, they go their separate ways, what do these sentences remind you of? Perhaps a sad or bad ending? I've noticed that a lot of the short stories and poems seem to end in a sad ending. I mean it's not a bad thing but it is kinda like reading a emotional child's diary. As for essay i think I've taken a lot from this course. For one i actually think i understand how to write a thesis statement, so i guess the essay writing workshops were a huge help for me and being able to get a grade and then get it revised for a better grade is a great feature.

As for blogging in this course i actually think it's wicked, it brings something new to a course that were used to of just reading and writing over and over again. I really enjoyed this course and I've all ready told anyone taking English 1080 to get Mr. Parsons as a prof. Thank you for actually making the course fun and your a great teacher sir.
