We have had two weeks of class now and I am going to give this reflection post a try. I am going to start out by saying how much I dislike writing or journaling. I have never found it to be a useful way to collect my thoughts. I have always found that nothing organizes my thoughts like a nice long car ride. I love to drive and I especially love long car rides; the 3-5 hour ones are my favorite. It is like my Zen time where I organize my thoughts and reflect on what is going on in my life. In essence, I am typing this reflection under duress! I was rather nervous before the first day of class because of how the class and the syllabus were laid out. The impression I got was that this is going to be a class of busy work and that is the type of class I dislike the most. However, after two nights of class, I am no longer worried. Even though I am not a big fan of the amount of reading involved, I find that the overall class format of discussion and sharing of our personal thoughts regarding a variety of topics makes the class time go by quickly. And as far as the discussion posts go…I’d still prefer a long car ride.
