English 101

Out of all the classes I have so far this semester I think I enjoy this one the most. I'm not quite sure why. I don't know if it's because I feel confident in that class or because it's so early in the morning that I just don't know any better lol. I like this whole blogging idea. It's a new experience for me mainly because I don't normally spend a lot of time on the computer. Which brings me to my next point..I'm not sure how to put in a link in my blogs so if anyone could tell me how to do that it would be great. I know how to put stuff like this-->http://365daysoftrash.blogspot.com/ but yea thats it.

I really like reading about the milblogging article that we read for class. I honestly didn't know that blogging was such a big thing with the Iraqi War. I am totally for it though. I think people need to know the truth about what is really going on over there without the media sugarcoating it. It's also a more effecient way to know that your loved ones are ok over there. What really blew me away was how every person the author talked about as a milblogger was highly educated. I mean that one guy he mentioned was like a genius but completely dropped his studies to pick up a gun and go fight for our freedom. It's not that I think that most military people are uneducated or anything it just surprised me because of how everyone pushes the idea of getting a good education and a high paying job. It actually makes me admire him. It shows that he chose to do something that he was passionate about even if it wasn't the ideal lifestyle versus the mold he was going to fit.

Anyways, I like class so far and am interested in what we read next.
