bringing it together

presentations went well this week. we could have put a little more time into it. The presentation was a good learning experience for all of us, next years class might be able to put something a little more fancy together. The students paid good attention, better than i thought they would.

Test essays were a drag with aweful topics of discussion. Having limited computers that worked because of virus problems was a pain. i did learn that i enjoy research papers much more than essays, being able to gather information and putting it together is much easier for me.

DC trip was hella tight, I'd love to go again. future classes should invest in going

overall the class was not bad, i enjoyed the small class. wish people wouldnt ask me to buy them a book then drop the class and never pay me back.. grimmy

1/27/10

A SS soldier covered in pus soaked bandages with openings only for his mouth and nose, lies in his death bed with only moments before death. This soldier has a new perspective of what he has been apart of and fleas for a jew so he can revel his guilt and die in peace. With Simon being the Jew retrived by a nurse he is caught up in the story of the soldiers life. Even though Simon has been through so much tragedy and death at such a young age from men just like this one he cant help but stay..and listen.
