This semester, we'll be trying to establish a class 'discourse' by creating a class blog. I'd like you to interact with each other and respond to each other's posts when appropriate.
Hopefully....it will be fun too.
First, I'll need to invite you to the blog.
Next, you'll have to log in through blogger.
After you've done this, your email address should appear in the top right corner of this page, along w/ the option to make a "new post."
When you've created a new post, click "publish post" and check to make sure it's up.
Make sure that you publish your posts.

I know this isn't where I'm supposed to post this, but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to post an entire comment, not just a response. The option to post a new link never appears. So for today, here's what I've got...
If I were to immerse myself into any culture for six months, I'd choose New Zealand. More specifically the Maori culture. They have a very laid back, simple lifestyle. Which is wonderful for me, because I tend to lead a pretty simple lifestyle myself. They speak mostly English so I think it would be pretty easy to be able to connect with them, and learn a lot from them on a personal level. They aren't much into religion either which is also wonderful as I tend to distance myself from religious institutions. I would try not to take too much from the US with me, in hopes of being able to get by with everything they use, and really get a good understanding of how they get by on a day-to-day basis. I might bring a classic novel from here to hopefully read them, and teach them something about our culture as well.
