“Against Our Will”

Just so everyone knows, I am in a very good mood right now because I got accepted into the elementary education major! So writing arts is now my coordinate major, and I am so excited because I have wanted to be a teacher ever since I was little. And now I can graduate on time! I’m sure no one really cares but I needed to say it.
So anyway, reading Lisa’s blog, it made me very interested in Second Life. It is interesting that you can create your own identity by making up your own person. It is also good that no one can judge what you are saying because I am always afraid to say what I think, in fear of what others might think. A lot of times when people voice their opinion about something, other people always disagree, and it is very discouraging. This website seems that people can just be theirself without being judged which is very good for kids, teens, and adults in today’s society.
Last week in class, we used online chatting to discuss topics in our groups. This was a good way to have a discussion because you were unsure of the people you were talking to. This made it easier to stay focused on the topic we had to discuss. Although most of us put our first names down, it would be interesting to have a fake name, so the others would not know who they are talking to. I think this method of class disucssion was very helpful, and we should use it in the future. If this module was not ending I would we definitely should do it on Fridays! =]
