In honour of my last blog post, I want to reflect on the many texts I have read. In this unique sort of course, I was entirely in my element.

We made it through the course! Congratulations to everyone! It’s crazy to think that throughout the span of this term I’ve read 11 books.

I had taken this class as a requirement but out of the courses I was taking this semester, this one was by far my favourite. Honestly, I don’t read that often so this course was a nice change. After […] read full post >>

Welcome back guys for the final blog! Oh my god, the last blog!! I cannot believe this is the last time I will be sitting on my desk and writing a blog for the class. This time, though it is a little different, considering I don’t have to write one on a book. But honestly […] read full post >>
