Fun

About five years ago I made my very first web page off of geocities, but I could not remember a single thing. Now I have learned again not only how to write up a web page, but what other sites offer this feature. I really enjoyed creating my very own web page except I don't like how the columns only stay one width. I could not resize them to my preference.

I have seen a few completed web pages from my group and I am very impressed with all of our end results. I never thought that getting people to respond to a group project would be so much trouble seeing that it is a on line class to begin with.

I will hate to see this class end so soon. It has been a lot of fun and one of the greatest experiences for a online class I have ever had.

My views are my opinions

It only took me five weeks into the class to really see the difference in my writing style to those of my classmates. I was raised by an extremely negative father who also happen to be very closed minded. The phrase "Its my way or the high way" was written for men like him.

Even though I am my own person, I can not change the type of person it is that raised me. When I read "Say it again", by Elizabeth Browning I could not see anything, but a negative point of view. I read other comments left and they all talked about how in love they were and how great the couples lives must be. Not I.

I think my views hender me from seeing more to the poems we read. I have trouble seeing beyond what is really meant. Unless the poem uses a lot of joyful words then of course I can see it then, but its not always like that. Some of the poems we read aren't even in English. ( to me)

My thoughts, My opinions

Having two history classes that are covering almost the same time period, I have learned what a big role religion was and how important it was to convert them to what you wanted.

That is why reading these poems over the last four weeks makes more sence to me. Religion seems to follow through out each time period first the Romanticism and now the Victorian age.

By far the most intriguing poet yet is Matthew Arnold. I love how he brought a sence of fantasy and imagination into his poem at the same time he made points about religion.

I am still uncertain about how , The Forsaken Merman all works together, but it was really fun to read.
