Famous Last Words: Week 13

As the semester is winding down, things are kind of in a resting state. It’s kind of like the calm before the storm (finals). I know this calm feeling isn't going to last very long though because finals are looming in the near future and I am not looking forward to that. At this point, I’m just ready to finish off the semester and enjoy my summer and I can’t enjoy my summer unless I do well on all my finals and finish the semester strong. Hopefully all goes well and smooth these next few weeks!

This class has definitely been an intriguing class. I’ve learned a lot more from reading these stories and other people’s blogs than I thought I would. As the semester went on and the class progressed, I found myself looking forward to reading other people’s blogs because some people write so well and their stories just jump out at you and come to life! I think my best writing for this week was my storytelling assignment. I was pretty happy with the outcome of that after I proofread it and submitted it. Another reason I like this class is because it helps me keep my writing skills polished, which is never a bad thing. Writing has always came easy to me, but practice always makes perfect, or at least near perfect!


I really liked that this week’s project commenting assignment was actually voting for our favorite projects. There were so many to choose from but I already had my favorites that I would choose to go back and comment on for the extra credit commenting assignments. Overall, I’ve had a great experience in this class and I’m glad I wait listed myself for a whole semester before actually taking this class. It was definitely worth the wait in my opinion!

  1. Hey Parth!

    I definitely feel that “calm before the storm” too. I know that if I don’t want to completely die later, I need to step my game up now.

    Some of the things I have been excited about learning in this class are the characters. I have the wonderful opportunity to work in India this summer and I have already recognized a few of the names, which makes me really eager to go!

    Hope the next few weeks go as smooth as possible for you!

  2. Finals is always the most stressful time of the semester, and of course it’s when most people have no motivation to keep working hard. I wish you luck on your finals! I agree, this class has definitely been interesting, and I really have enjoyed it. It was nice to read some of the stories, because people are so talented at writing. Have a great rest of the semester, all two weeks! I like the picture you chose!
