Hi, my name is Nicole Martin. There was a point in my life when I loved reading but as for today it’s not exactly so. I do not dislike it, I just don’t have the passion as opposed to in my prior years. Lately I realize I have selective reading tendencies; to materials that is of interest to me. I normally liked writing reality pieces and poems too but I’ve become stagnant on that because I do not have the time sometimes among other things.
I am looking forward to what this class has in store for me and how it can help me to be better equipped in reading and writing.
As it relates to the poem we got on the first day about Christmas and Jesus, there were parts that did not come quite clear to me as I would have hoped but I hope as time progresses I will be able to understand various types of poetry and readings at large.
Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 102 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing, reading, and thinking on a weekly basis in an informal setting.
Thanks for sharing, Nicole. I'm sure that you'll get a lot of practice in both reading and writing this term.
