Blogging similarities

So I am just about finished with this ssmemester and I am kinda excited yet sad all at once. I for once actually fully enjoyed this English class more than any other English class I have ever had. I finally after two classes with this teacher have realized that she utilized a teaching techniques known as the Montessori technique. I experienced this technique back in elementary school in Wisconsin. I had no idea until recently that this was the method they used but I had an inkling with the differences in style. I can say without a doubt that I thoroughly enjoy this style for what it provides to both the student and the teacher. This is a style that encompasses a more group effort that is tailored to the needs of the individuals and can change pace based upon those needs. I got these subtleties in elementary and hadnt been faced with it until this fun-filled english class. I have now become almost excited to write especially if its on a topic I feel strongly about. I have even been faced with a couple topics I don't like to discuss generally which makes me have to write and is truly essential for the developing of good writing. I am "Magnoliaed" out but at least it wasn't an overyl terrible movie. I did enjoy how an impossible set of angles could be taken with the movie but I am so over it. I almost wanted to purchase the movie for archival purposes but I think I shall wait till my mind can withstand to even think about it again. I did enjoy the multitudes of short stories and poteries that were given to us in spurts. The in class discussions are priceless of course and I truly lvoed seeing a few bulbs birghten when someones eyes were opened ever so slightly. I am not the smartest nor the wisest of people ever but I revel in having a somewhat wonderful general knowledge of things and the things related to things and so on. I don't like to live in a closed minded box ridden world where nothing can exit or enter. Of course those that know me or those that really know me that is truly what I feel and believe.In the words of the grewat Lupe Fiasco I won't "Dumb It Down"

Just a bit of a test

This is a mere test to see if this facebook application will allow me a simple way to combine a few blogging accounts into one continuous feed. I am sick of having so many choices for blogging but no simplistic way to combine and associate them into one singular service while still having full control over privacy and feed concerns. Perhapos this little app can be a start on the road to fixing this goofiness.
