Thoughts on all the thoughts so far

It’s crazy to think that this semester is almost over and that I’ve basically read a book for almost every week of this year so far. I have to admit that I didn’t join this class for any great or noble reason like some others, rather it was a suggestion from a friend that it … Continue reading Thoughts on all the thoughts so far

Hasta la vista

Unfortunately, the class has come to an end but it has been a remarkably enriching journey for me. As a student of political science and economics, my academic journey has largely been dominated by the necessity to engage with texts on theories and models, aiming for academic success in my exams. Initially chosen to fulfill […]

Concluding Post – Week 13

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 […]

THE END!!! (at least my literature requirements are completed)

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 […]

end of a journey

This has been one of the most unique courses I have ever taken at UBC. Every single book was such a novel challenge. At the beginning of this term I was scared that I wasn’t going to be able to keep up with all the reading, and was especially worried that my comprehension of the […]

time fliesss

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 […]

Final Blog: farwell

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 […]

PEACE OUT HOMIES !!!

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 […]

FIN

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 […]

Conclusion

Time flies, three months have rushed by, and this blog is surprisingly the last one of the term. I’ve really enjoyed reading, writing, and discussing with all of you this term, and have heard so many interesting ideas and perspectives. My expectation for myself at the beginning of the term was to read as much […]
