The PWP Grows...slowly but surely.

I missed class and the assignments last week because...well because I bit off more than I can chew this semester, and I'm still trying to get a hold on it. I wish I had a better excuse (I stayed up for about 4 days working on the first chunk of my thesis), but I don't.

I have, however, been racking my brain for ideas for the PWP, since the ones I've come up with so far seem either implausible or just not that good. Therefore, I've given up on trying to double-dip, sigh.

I've been toiling with an idea for a blog for almost two years now, and I've decided to use this frustrating situation to just take the leap and do it. It's called WILT (What I Learned Today), and I hope it's not been overdone too much before. It'll be a (daily would be ideal eventually, but for now just as often as possible) blog about just that: what I learned today, and my reflection on that knowledge. I promise it will have cool interesting facts, links, videos, etc. The other aspect of it would be things I learned about myself or how I perceive the world around me, so kind of a daily intellectual devotional with a psychoanalytical twist. I can refrain from the second part if it's too rant-y for this class, but I suppose we'll talk about that on Thursday.

Sorry for the text wall! Next one will be better!

  1. Laura: there'll be time in class for you to ask me and your peers the myriad questions within and raised by this post. Don't let me forget to attend to them.
