I'll Say She Is!

Coming out
ciao

I came out about this blog today to one of my professors. He asked us to write our contact information on an index card, and if we had a web page, and had ever created a 'zine. So I wrote down the address to this old blog and proudly proclaimed that while I had no 'zine, I was a blogger.

Say it with me: I BLOG, THEREFORE I AM!

I like blogging so much that I wanted to do my graduate research on blogging as a teaching tool - and in a cruel twist of fate, the school that gave me the best offer is deleting its composition and rhetoric program, because death claimed two key faculty members within the last year. I talked to a Ph.D. candidate in comp/rhet here today, and he said I should have gone to Texas A&M (or some school in Texas) - who knew? But don't worry, I'll find a way to get what I want out of this place. Oh yes, I will.

In an unrelated note, someone stole the school's two national football championship trophies from their case this weekend.

Oh - "Welcome to the University's Enlgish Department". Heh.

My friend Mari can't stand 'blog' so she calls her, um, blog a "thingie." Mine I call a journal, so I guess I'm the snob of the bunch. Go fig'. =)
I like journal too. I was kind of excited to see that they call it a blog here in class! In fact, I have to make a blog entry at least once a week for one of my classes - however, my work here doesn't count. Pooh.
