i have to start off by saying, THANK GOD WE ARE DONE BLOGGING! this was honestly my least favorite part of the course; with that aside. I can definitely say that this class has benefitted me in ways i never imagined. First off i learned how to look at literature in a different light, instead of reading and saying "this is stupid" i know sit and think what about what the author is trying to tell me, the reader. I was also very surprised at the amount of material that made me realize how messed up and dismantled our society is. Plenitude alone was enough to set me off, and make me realize that as Americans we really are NEVER truly happy.
I can also say that my own personal beliefs and morales have been altered after this course. Overall, i have come to the realization that technology may very well be the end of our powerhouse society. People are slowly drifting away from traditional ways of communication and interaction, which to me is a MAJOR problem. i believe strongly in the importance of face to face contact, without it you can never truly know how someone feels about you, or how the necessarily react to the things you say. I would be very curious to see how people would react without these now essential items (i.e. cell phones, computers, and Televisions). If you ask me sooner or later Americans will remain cooped up in their houses all day using their tech savvy devices.

Ha. .. I know what you mean I’m not a blogger. I have to be honest thou I really enjoyed reading all of your guys thoughts and opinions. I’m so glad you got allot from this class, I know I did. I find it funny it seems like allot of people say this is stupid but they really don’t know why or care to know why they just say it. Now literature isn’t stupid to you. Did you ever get tired of my plenitude connections? I sure hope America doesn’t take regular in their houses and only utilize there devices but who knows. Probably our children’s, children, but maybe we can change that?
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you on the technology part, just look at how it has changed literature. I loved working in a group with you! i'm sad to see this class ending because I feel that we all worked so well together!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm glad the blogs are done too hahaha. I liked that you realize we are losing face to face connection because it is something very important that we shouldn't lose just because of all the technology around us.
