Hello class of 2006-2007!

We have begun a new “adventure” in English… blogging. We'll be using blogging as an educational tool to share and build understanding of the topics we discuss in class.

Just a reminder about the rules:
- Every Sunday I will post TWO blog writing topics.
- During the week, select one and post a response to it.
- The post must be in 5 or more complete sentences.
- Find two responses that you like or dislike and comment on them.
- If you do those three things, you will earn 20 points for the week. Each journal post counts for 10 points and the response counts for 5 points.
- I will check the blog postings on Saturday morning at 7:00 a.m.

Let’s get started!

1. If you could change one thing in the world right now, what would you choose to change? Why?
2. How well do you think you know yourself and what makes you unique?

You may begin posting for the week. And remember – 1 post (5 sentences) and two comments. These are due on December 1st. Email me if you have any problems with the blogs or the class.

Enjoy your time!

Your teacher

Hello!

You're asking me what I would change on this world...well, free beer to start with:)...I am not trying to create an alcoholic club here or something like that,I think drinking is bad and the less you do it the better...but I like to drink every now and then and I end up with a hagover and empty wallet...so free beer for everyone and one probem solved:)
As for the secound question, I can only say that I have no idea what I am going to do next:) probably people around me know me more than I know myself...and what makes me unique?I'm just a lazy,sleepy, black-dressed guy with nothin to do with his life:)the only thing that is left in your memory after meeting me is: This guy is odd... but has good sense of humour:D

Urban, people cannot be judged by their appearance or the amount of beer they are able to drink (free or not):)

By the way, you're supposed to choose only ONE topic and post a response to it (at least 5 sentences)... You should have read the rules...

Well i can only say Urban for the president, so we can all have a free beer :)
And urban you have the wrong opinion, what people think about you, i know you, and you are not odd. But you are right about the other part, you are funny ;)

Urban said...

Tnx aleš we'll talk about our personalities over a beer:) just kidding:)

M!h4 said...

Well now Urban, I agree about the free beer u know me :D
But about you being odd, well sometimes you are sometimes you aren't but one thing is for sure you always make us laugh.
Oh and free coffe would be appreciated to :)

Gašper said...

Urban, We'll talk it over a free beer (= you treat)....?

Gašper said...

Plus coffee + pizza + .... and we'll all say you're the best, you're the most handsome, the most intelligent ..brrr.....but having these qualities you can't become a president. So let's keep to a free beer for each of us...ok?

Unknown said...

hm.. let me see...

Right now.. in this moment I'd change everything that's boring to being fun. So I could study math.

Unknown said...

If there'd be free beer you'd be unable to bet for it because It'd not be worth anything.

Unknown said...

Sometimes , sense of humour is most important.

Aleš said...

What would I change in the world?
I don`t know realy. Maybe i would reduce the price of the gasoline, because I like evryting that uses gasoline for working, and I waste a lot of money for gasoline. I can`t imagine how much i will spend when i will have a car.

Gašper said...

By the time you have your own car solar energy will be used in cars...:)

Hmm... I know, its probably too late but anyway...
1. What would I change? If that would be possible I would make day long 30 hours ... why? 24 hours is not enought to watch a movie, go to school, have fun, sleep 12 hours and learning. I think even 30 hours is not enought.
2.I think I know myself good, maybie a little better than good, becouse that is me :). What makes me unique? Smiling all day long makes me unique :)

Matej said...

If i could change somethin?
Gee, i want some snow, i'm going out with my camera in a few moments and i want snow for that:)

Unique?
nothing. Standard looser.
