Between assignments, juggling work and school, and catching a mean flu this past week, my learning journals, to put it simply, have gotten neglected. Oh, and losing my binder doesn't help a whole lot as well. I guess I wasn't expecting such a heavy workload, but now it's hitting me hard.
This is three weeks worth of learning journals condensed into one, but I'll try my best to keep it short and sweet :)
In the days I did attend class, I learned that catching up on missed work is not the easiest thing to do. This isn't like high school anymore where you can just cruise through and expect an easy ride. For example, I thought that once we compiled our articles and decided on the big Rwandan genocide one that we were going to move on to something new once that was out of the way. I'll admit that it did get a little redundant, but I feel like each prompt gave me a deeper understanding of the article and why Munyaneza chose to make the actions he made.
I also feel that people's opinions are crucial to grasping a concept. My classmates' input has not only helped me to decide my own opinion, but has also made me realize parts of a story or article that had never even crossed my mind before.
When I went to go see Doubt at the Playhouse, I thought I was going to despise it. The audience was mostly seniors, and that gave me an impression I wouldn't like the play. Once it started, I got kind of into it. Despite getting seats close to the front, I managed to fall asleep for a good 15 minutes. Good thing scripts exist, yay! The rest of the play was wonderful though and I really enjoyed the scenes with lots of emotion in them, like when Father Flynn and Sister A were arguing in the office. I know I am not supposed to talk about acting, but it was truly INCREDIBLE. That is all.
Be back next week.
