1/25/10- Parasites- I’m not sure why I never listen to the Radiolab before this class, but it was interesting to listen and think about parasites in a different context. There was also a realization that parasites might be closer and more relative to my life than I thought. The fact that my cat might be carrying a parasite that I could eventually carry is a little closer than I like to think parasites are.

The thought of signature that was brought up in today’s class was brings up the thought of who I really am once I put my name on paper. Is it really a reflection of me and that I agree with whatever is on the paper to which I have just signed. OR is just a mark someplace and the fact that I have made that specific mark significant to me; whether it is an actual signature, scribble or mark that I have made to represent me.

2/6/10-Ok, let's try one of these persona poems and see how this turns out.

Daisy

I reach to the sky with all eyes open

My skirt is fragile

Season is perfect, and the sun makes me smile

As long as I’m here, I shouldn’t waste time

My friends around me

I love pink and white

Stones at me ankles are snow white

My toes are being exfoliated all day long

Taking my time to bloom

My height is nothing compared to the others around me

I need to make sure I don’t waste time

You must have seen me

I sleep all curled up in the dark

O the quick days of summer

My head droops to the ground

And then no more me

Next test, i was busy watching The Office today and decided to try and take every characters first line and make it some confusing/ interesting piece of writing.

Wow, so this seemed like a good idea, but was so much harder than I thought. I tried to pull the first word from each characters line, no really expecting it to make any sense and it doesn’t, but it was fun. I have never paid that much attention to an episode in my life.
