Cheers! (raise a glass of your favourite drinks pairing)

At the beginning of this semester, I was hesitant to admit something: this semester I’ve read more books than I ever have in even a year. It’s somewhat embarrassing, but it’s also been a revelation. It’s shown me that I am capable of reading a book a week, even though I’ve always considered myself a […]

Someone Que the Outro Music!!!!!

Hello my lovely friends! Or should I say…goodbye? 😏 All jokes, but it’s a bit surreal to think that 13-14 ish weeks already passed and I’m now parting with this blog and, consequently, the rest of you guys. It literally does feel like yesterday I was struggling to figure out how to use WordPress while […]

Goodbye RMST!

Hello everyone! This semester went by a lot faster than the winter semester, and it brought back my long-lost hobby of reading every evening. I enjoyed the structure and flexibility of this course, it allowed me to choose how many books I wanted to read this semester and provided me with readings that I would’ve […]

Week Twelve: Conclusion

    Reaching the end of this course, I am filled with an appreciation for the Romance World. Beginning with “Combray” and spanning eleven other great works, I was exposed to authors I would normally glance over on the shelves of libraries or bookstores in my native country; through the guidance of lectures and my peers, my […]

 Sadly, this will be the last blog post i’ll be writing for this class. I’m not going to lie, when I first signed up for this class I wasn’t expecting it to go the way it did. Firstly, I didn’t do much research as to what the course content was, I just knew it would fill my final lit requirement. I honestly thought this course had to be something actually related to romance, or what we refer to as romance nowadays. Boy, was I wrong. That being said, I am in no way disappointed with the outcome of this course. This will definitely land somewhere in my top 10 list for favourite courses! Although the “novel a week” idea seemed extremely intimidating at first, i found it to be much more manageable than I initially thought. Being able to pick what grade i wanted depending on the amount of work I was willing to do, really took a huge weight off of my shoulders. On top of that, I genuinely enjoyed most of the books we read too! Some of them were a little difficult to pickup, or follow but for the most part, reading didn’t even seem like homework. I’d have to say my favourite was Agostino; a very easy and engaging read! Another thing I really enjoyed about the course, was writing our blogs. I really liked being able to give my honest opinion without fear of losing marks. 

Anyway, I had loads of fun in this class and it was really nice to be able to meet you all in person, thank you for reading! :))

Goodbye!

When I first enrolled in this course, I’ll admit it was simply for the literature credits, and I had absolutely no idea what to expect. On top of that, I wasn’t sure how the whole contract grading thing would play out, as it is a new concept for me. However, I was pleasantly surprised. I […]
