Initially, I anticipated the course to be predominantly focused on exploring themes of romance and love. However, it explored themes beyond […] read full post >>

April 9th, 2024 Here we are, the end of the road (or the course). This course has truly changed my approach to literature. It has helped me grow as a reader, and express my thoughts and opinions freely. I have been re-reading all of my blog posts throughout the term in order to take a […] read full post >>

I can’t believe this is our last post, I literally remember writing my first blog post on proust, on my way to Vancouver, this has been an interesting journey for sure. I took RMST courses both semesters, and I’m definitely looking forward to taking more in the future! This course was an escape from my […] read full post >>

Hey everyone! I can’t believe that we’re wrapping up and I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels this way. First things I’ll say are that the books I’ve read in this class definitely challenged me and that the freedom we had in this class was refreshing. Not only were certain vocabulary or syntax […] read full post >>

RMST really was a nice change of scenery in place of the usual academic course. I was able to learn while not feel immense pressure from the course matter. I really was surprised by a lot of the books in the course, they covered themes I was not at all expecting. I thought of a […] read full post >>

Yes yes, I was one of the students who took this class to fulfill my literature requirement. HOWEVER, I also chose this class specifically because after taking SPAN 312C with him (look at me promoting your other courses), I liked professor Beasley’s teaching style. Anyways, I have to say this course went by quite fast. Normally […] read full post >>

Well folks there we have it, another school year comes to a close!  This course has definitely been one of the more interesting classes I’ve taken in my four years at UBC, and I got to say even though I picked this course because I saw romance in the title and was very intrigued and […] read full post >>

And here comes the last week of classes of my first year. RMST 202 just may be one of my favorite classes I’ve taken this year, and it was such an eye-opening experience about university level classes in general. I’m not sure if it will be the same in the future for my remaining three […] read full post >>
