Week 3

We can all admit that week three of Sweeney’s English 102 was pretty pointless. This week consisted of three main events. Truly only one of these events were enjoyable. The three events consisted of Monday: going to the library with the entire class, Wednesday: having a snow day and Friday: a lovely class discussion on our reading. I am sure you can guess which one was enjoyable!On Monday the entire class took a trip to the community room near the library. Once arrived we found out that we were going to be participating in a lovely scavenger hunt throughout the library. The whole class was overcame with joy in the news of this to say the least. Sweeney’s class was then separated into four teams, which we were not allowed to pick ourselves, then sent out into the library to find a series of things.  Once completing this scavenger hunt, each team had to present their findings in front of the class. This whole activity was completely pointless because I am sure each of us had the same presentation in English 101. It was so incompetent that I felt as if I were in high school again. Then on Wednesday the ground was covered enough that RBC actually closed school, which was quite shocking. I thoroughly enjoyed my day full of snow. Last on Friday we actually meet for a good reason. Behind in our discussion though, we discussed Monday’s reading. Monday’s reading was “The Chrysanthemum,” which like past stories, was difficult to understand. After a long and hard to stay on topic talk about this story we came to a conclusion. The main woman was frustrated with her life because her husband only saw her on the outside.
Week three started off slow but began to pick up the pace on Friday. Even though it was hard to discuss the story because we were all so chatted we manage to get to the main point. What a lovely week!
