Time really does fly!

Its hard to believe we already are into November, and winter is right around the corner. Looking to the start of my blog, I had first read Bill Cosby's autobiography "Time Flies." Indeed it has! Sometimes it drives me crazy how I can get caught up in so much commotion at school and let time sneak right past me. One thing Bill talked about was how he was a young, athletic man constantly on the run, and in the blink of an eye he became the old man he thought he could never be. In a way, I feel the same these days. Not that I am falling apart or becoming senile, but that younger people around me are getting older. I still can not get a grasp on the idea that my younger brother is driving, and soon graduating. overall, reading Cosby's book has helped me take a step back and realize that I am getting older and need to accept the changing times.

Reading and Responding Reflection

Well, so far I have not kept up on the blogging end of this task. The reason is that I have misunderstood what a blog is about this whole time. I have been under the assumption that each post needs to be a well thought out writing response, like essay form. Now I am kicking myself for not asking for help sooner. BLOGGING IS EASY!! When I read my books, I obviously take much away from them but this is not a class where we circle up and discuss them chapter by chapter. Previously I was annoyed because I would have lots to talk about, but not a single other person had read the same book as me. Now I am excited to be able to blog about my books as I am reading them and not have to worry about writing a well thought out and crafted response. I can simply talk about how I am interpreting them. This is going to tremendously change how I can read for this class now. Prepare for many more posts!
