And We are DONE!

I hope everyone is finished or near completion of the paper at this point. For this blog entry, I thought I would simply reflect on the semester and share my thoughts about our class. Not only was the small class setting something new and enjoyable for me, but also, the content was something that I was unusually interested in. While literature classes before this often challenged me, Brit Ren emphasized an even greater importance on the connections that we find between literature, speeches, critical reviews, art, and research, which we often to do not have the opportunity to do! Though the research at times was grueling, I found that it gave me a knowledge that expanded the complete topic which I investigated, making me a feel a small expert in a vast historical world. The majority of the favorite texts that I read came from the Elizabeth collection! I think I am going to ACTUALLY read it past this class because I found it so intriguing. I hope that heading into future literature and writing classes, we can all apply the connection emphasis and the dreaded enthymeme prep :) We made it and I'm so glad it was with this crowd of people! You rock!
