Reflecting on what I have learned so far is easy to tell you that this class makes me want to pull my hair out, but try and see this in a good way. Before, during, and after class my mind is constantly thinking. Aquinas hasn't failed to give me a headache twice a week yet! We read, we write, we discuss, and we fight; the fighting is the best part. Reading through everyone's learning blog's, Brittany A and Brittany M's blogs really fit with my outlook on this course. Although I love to read and write, we haven't moved off of the topic of Doubt yet. Each prompt allows me to explore my own opinions and beliefs. The discussion we have after bringing our assignments in also help me open up with how I feel. I love what this class teaches me which is to explore your thoughts and opinions, but it seems to be getting pretty repetitive.
Journalism without a doubt is my favourite class, but Russ and Thom, don't get offended, journalism is what I have always been interested in. I'm excited for our turning point presentations next week and I feel this will help everyone understand each other a little more. Each and every one of us has gone through something in their lives which causes us to believe, feel, doubt, and do what we do. This is going to bring our class together if it hasn't already. Aquinas is a great place for us to get what we have on our minds and say it aloud or write it down through ink shedding.
We can't force ourselves to stop thinking, but Aquinas forces us to think ten times harder.
