Hmmmm... when I realized I had to take Rhetoric 306 AND 309..I got a teensie bit nervous. I will admit that I am NOT the best writer. I have my good essays and my not so much essays. What ran through my mind was, "Why didn't I just take that AP test and do those dreadful timed writings!" Oh well, it was my bad. For Rhetoric 306, I basically scrambled to just fit into a course and didn't consider who I was going to have to listen to for a semester or if there was a topic, but thank goodness it turned out well. I had little desire to write 15 more essays this semester, but I knew I had to. I knew I had to just get through it to finally get to my classes for athletic training. After surviving my first semester of college and rhetoric, I had to think carefully if I wanted to go through that again and there was one aspect that made me say yes...well maybe two actually.
While most are enjoying themselves and typing their lovely essays, I enjoyed watching shows with my dad focused on wars and history. For some reason I actually like American history, WWII, and all that fun stuff, but couldn't enjoy writing a research paper. Crazy, I know. History holds mystery, lies, and all the juicy details that always make life interesting, so when I heard that I can take a Rhetoric class that actually involves some history, I was kind of interested. I figured if I HAVE to take Rhetoric 309, I might as well learn some history along the way! I also wanted to actually know the reason behind the war and knew this would help me out since my time is so limited as a broke college student. Love for history + Writing is not too unbearable = Not too bad! I'm actually looking forward to gettting into Vietnam.
To seal the deal, who passes up the complicated name Krzysztof Piekarski?!
