Perspective
Something I really enjoy about our peer feedback session is being able to see how differently others can analyse and think about the exact same text or information. It's actually kind of exciting to see amazing opinions and ideas coming from the people around you. I feel like being exposed to all of these amazing perspectives allows me to grow as a thinker and challenges my ideas about subjects. I think this is really important and I think that you should participate in debate and discussion on issues surrounding you throughout your life. I feel like this is something missing in American culture for the most part. It seems like the average American just accepts whats going on around them and keeps their ideas to themselves instead of conversing and debating about important issues.

I'm glad you feel happy about the peer feedback - some students don't like it - but I do think we have a particularly nice class this quarter. I like reading all of your papers, too, for that very reason - all the takes on the same texts. I agree that we Americans are not really very good at discussion, at least not intelligent or thoughtful discussion. That's a great thing about college - it's an environment that fosters discussion. Enjoy it while you can! : )
HI Emily, i was picked to comment you back on your blogger. My name is Sun and i'm pretty sure we met before. I remember we both were assigned to peer feed back one another. ANyways, i really like your blogger page. Mine background is black as well. hehe however i guess i'm not here to talk about they way it looks but they way you made it look. I like reading your entries and all the things you did during this quarter. You seem pretty intresting and hard working. I admire that in a gurl, anyways i did not learn alot about you from it i just got a clue that you was hard working and love you sisters alot. You also mention time in your one of your entries as well, and i think that we all need ,more of it when we need it and need less when we don't. hehe if that makes any sense. Anyways i am very happy to have gotten to know a little bit from your blogger and i go think that you sound very intresting. well its nice that the quarter is over huh... hopefully see you around campus.
