Opening new windows, (not really it's cold outside)

This week we were given the topic of blogging about blogging. At first, I was mind boggled about the complexity of this assignment. First off this assignment included creating a blog. I am not one to use facebook a lot, or social networking for that matter, so being on the computer was never my , thing. So this was my first hurdle to conquer. After climbing this mountain, I had to face figuring out how to use a blog. Not being the blogging type, I looked up a couple of blogs to see how they were formatted. From what I found there are not rules to blogging. Just like people, each blog can be unique in their own way. After writing a blog this semester, I felt I was opened to new windows of literacy. I also accepted new ways of writing that made me come out of my comfort zone of the literacy that I was used to. Also it was a new way of connecting and learning more about my peers in the classroom with being super embarrassed to talk to new people in class. I feel that it was a new way to get to know someone without coming off as a "dumbass". Also if someone is shy in class, its a way for them to show their thoughts and feelings because they might not be able to express them in a classroom setting. I think this is a great thing for a English class to do and a great way to improve writing in a modern sense.

Weekend

Well today I am going to start my blog off by letting yall know that In the next few weeks you might get attacked my water guns, so heads up. A few of my brothers and I are fighting to win the gold in homecoming week and one of the events is a week long water gun fight. We are teamed up with the lovely ladies of ADPi and we will not lose. That being said the week is coming up and that usually means one thing… when Monday rolls around I hope I am still breathing and hopefully my brothers will fill me in on a what is going to be great weekend. For yall who are new to UNCC Thursday is the day that the big parties happen. So that is the first obstacle to make it past. Then you have Friday. Fridays are tricky there are many things that happen on Friday the can range from a small group of about 30 to 50 people hanging out or massive event with around 250 plus people. Saturday is the same as Thursday pretty much. This Sunday is super bowl Sunday which I can’t really go into right now. I was hoping to get a lot more sleep tonight, but yall know how it is. When about midnight comes around the phone starts going off wanting to watch a movies, and me being the nice guy that I am accepts the offer. So it is now about 3am. That means I get to see yall in like 6 hours! I am pretty pumped up. So I know I just kinda of rambled a bit, and it seems like I do not have a point to my blog. But I really do!! My point is that I hope everybody will go out and enjoy their weekend to the fullest because we have earned it by working hard. Have a great night as well.
Goodnight and Sweet dreams.
