Well this is my first official
blog post in quite sometime. I suppose if it was not required as a grade, I
would have not initially done this, but shit happens so I’ll just have fun with
it. My name is Jessica (what an original way to start an intro). I love cats,
my cat’s name is Valentino. My mission in life is to continuously learn and
grow as a human. I didn’t just take this English class because it was required,
but instead to keep me on track with my writing skills. So I actually do look
forward to writing this semester. I must say it has been quite some time since
I have written an argumentative paper, probably not since junior year in AP. So
there is a lot of refreshing to do, but the results will be bountiful.
The first two weeks of class were how I imagined them, slow but steady.
The readings that were assigned were eye opening, even though everyone else
said it was boring. Personally I thought the papers were well written, there
were many examples, and texts from other authors and artists included in the
argument. It’s not so important to me how it was written but the message that
was intended for the reader. The question on the thought of originality, is
being original possible? I believe in order to be a true artist your very
essence or soul must be intertwined with your work. That is how something
beautiful is created. No soul is ever the same, so if your work is true it will
stand out all its own and be deemed something new and innovating. We can’t
explain fully the emotions and feeling that are tied with being original, but when
something new is presented it is evident that it is a work of its own.
