Blogs!?! Not Thanks

The incorporation of the blogs have been borderline useless to me. It's just been "homework to me and I didn't approve of it from day 1. Even now, I am typing this long homework assignment and wishing I could just end it on this note. But no... there's questions to answer! In a nutshell, I'm not a fan of the blog assignments and here is why.

1. I did not benefit from meeting anyone online. If anything... having to comment on their blogs made me as annoyed at them as writing my own. Call me old fashioned, but step one for communicating with someone new is to actually communicate.

2. It didn't give me any new outlet to express myself. Seriously, in a class of 100 people there pretty much only existed 3 maybe 4 different points of view. In other words if I didn't share my thoughts it was because 8 other people already raised their hands to pretty much say the SAME THING... in a different accent.

3. The professors goal of "outside reading" should've stayed inside, cuz nothing from these blogs helped me on any test. (See Exam 1 and 2)

4. I did not feel in control of my grade's 20% because I had to manage it in a sloppy and confusing website.

5. After this class, I'm gonna stick this blog in a roofless limo... have it parade down the boulevard at 25 miles per hour, as the blog waves at spectators... them I'm gonna throw my groups little "egg"(that could) at it.

Kennedy pun aside, I feel the blog should stay for the simple fact that if I had to do it every one else should too. Bitter... I know.
