I'm just going to reflect on the first month of this class since this is my first post like this. This class is challenging, that's for sure! I am a person who would rather throw all technology out the window, run into the woods and just live outdoors forever. The wild in me, and me in the wild. Not necessarily, but I am going through a steep learning curve with having to use blogging, Pinterest, website-making, etc. This semester also started at 100mph for me, so the whole "getting ahead" thing... yeah, not working out so far. I plan to, oh yes, I plan to. But we'll see how that goes come week 14. Hopefully extra credit stuff like this will help!
I don't want to seem like a negative Nancy, though. I am loving the writing aspect of this class. I enjoy writing a lot, actually. No, not professionally or as a grammar Nazi or anything. Just writing. Words are powerful! I am not sure who came up with the saying, "sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." Bull. Words have the power to tear down or build up. Let's do our best to make it the latter, can we?
So to whomever is reading this, if anyone, or maybe even to myself as I write this: You. Are. Incredible. I don't need to know who you are to say that, because I have a hunch that everyone has something good to give. So take heart, you are a world-changer. Be yourself and contribute to this crazy world, everyone else is taken and we need a little more of you, anyway!
This past week I got to eat at Vast on the top of the Devon Tower for a petroleum conference!
