Theme week sixteen

Me as a writer option #4

I loved this course but I was not really prepared to just think of things and go with it. I never knew what a vingette was or even a juxtaposition. I have learned many things this semester about myself and my writing. In fact I am taking another creative writing course next semester. I never liked english or writing in high school. I started college and had to take a intro to writing course where I learned the five paragraph essays and parallelism. Then I went on to eng 101 and loved every minute of it. I pulled out a 98 in 101 and was extremely interested in writing and english from that point on. I would love to major in english and teach writing some day but I dont know if I am really teacher material. I enjoy coming up with things off the top of my head. I am a bit more "creative" if it doesnt have to be non-fiction writing but then again arent we all. I have enjoyed this course but I think I would have enjoyed working with John Goldfine on more of a face to face basis. I like the fact that John sees the humor in some of my writing yet can see the seriousness and the tears coming out when I write about my best friend Mickey and his death. This has been a great experience but I am sad to say that i am glad it is finally over. Back to my kids for the next couple of months... YEAH!

Theme week fifteen

Made from A Series of Carol Burnett Quotes

Only I can change my life.
No one can do it for me.
When you have a dream
you've got to grab it and never let go.

I have always grown from my problems and challenges,
from the things that don't work out,
that's when I've really learned.

Adolescence is just one big walking pimple.
Comedy is tragedy plus time.
I liked myself better when I wasn't me.

Giving birth is like taking your lower lip and forcing it over your head.
I don't have false teeth.
Do you think I'd buy teeth like these?

People invite me to dinner not because I cook,
but because I like to clean up.
I get immediate gratification from Windex.
Yes, I do windows
