It has been a relatively fun semester and I must say, while this class had its shortcomings, I really did enjoy it. Here are some of my favorite moments:
1. The Website
I was terrified of this, especially when I found out there was a second one as a group project. But after fiddling with tripod on the individual assignment, I actually had a lot of fun. Heck, I think I'll be using this for when I start making websites of my own!
2. Frankenstein
Young Frankenstein is one of my favorite movies, and to actually read the material that inspired the movie that inspired the parody was a real treat. I found myself laughing in hindsight as much of the scenes began to make even more sense, and jokes and references I previously didn't get suddenly became hilarious.
3. The Book
While not as fun as the website or Frankenstein, I enjoyed reading the introductions to the cultures of the different periods. As an aspiring writer, having an understanding of history is helpful, as it allows one to create a more believable and immersive world, and the main textbook had cultural notes in spades. My favorite was the different problems and struggles the new industrial revolution created.
And thus concludes my blog and this class. Hope everyone has a good summer semester/much-needed vacation, and good luck in the future.
