ENGL 106 (DAY 1)
Wow, a on-line blog... never done one of these before. Well, here goes.
Let's see... what do I know about gender representation in society...? Well, one thing I know for sure is that females are respected more now than a few decades ago. I mean, women can now vote, join the army, get good jobs, and get a college education and actually use it instead of just being a housewife (not that anything is wrong with being a housewife, it's just you spent all that money for nothing). Although, even though things are better for women, they can still improve. From what I understand, in a lot of jobs, men get paid more than women for doing the same exact thing. I mean, there are even some places that don't even allow women to be promoted past a certain point (although they wont tell you that, they'll just say Mr. So-in-so is better for the position). I'm not saying I'm against men or anything, I just wish women would be given completely equal rights in regards to men.
OK, now that I got that out of my system...
What do I expect to get out of this class...? Hm... an A+. Just Kidding! Even though I'd love to get one, I'd much rather earn my grade. One thing I do expect to get out of this class though is (and I know this sounds corny) a greater understanding of writing. I've always been a math and science kid, English has never really been my thing. This, of course, is not to say I'm bad at it, I'm just better at math and science. With that being said, I bid you all farewell.
Oh, and before I forget, I'm sorry if my grammar was bad.
