Andry: introduction & opinion

My name is andry, I 21 years old. I live at Veteran Street. I’m not like an ordinary college student. You think that I’m big headed, I’m different because if ordinary student busy with their task I’m not. I just have fun with my fantasy. In the night while they study I prefer go to my friends house and played all night. In the morning they had already in the campus I still under my blanket and had party in my dreamland. It all my bad habit I think. In all my bad things I had little hobbies that make me alive and still had plan for the future. I like graphic design and basketball. Just two of that that can make me survive from the stressing moment of being student. At noon I always played basketball with my friends, off course if I’m not tired and sleep. I do it everyday. After that in the night after I played in my friend’s house I make design until dawn, if my eyes still open. I designed for fun and I made it for my friends or people who want me to designing something. Like clothing, picture, web etc. I can make money too from that. But in all of that’s I still think about my study too, even I rarely study. I wish that I can graduate soon and had a good mark. It just can happen only in my dreams.

In my opinion using blogs in writing course is kindda good things. I agree about the aim of using blogs can give experience of having a wider audience rather just the teacher that can only see the writing. And using blogs can give us more knowledge about writing skills that others people had, not just other people but people around the world, because we globally connected in the internet. We can also learn toward the comments about our blogs from others.

Hello..
I am Wana (Tribuwana). I am studying in Faculty of language and literature in SWCU in Salatiga now. I want to be a teacher and a journalist one day. I like sport, listening music and watching television. I'm happy when I found someone who like to talk about religi, pshycology and phylosofy. I live in a boarding house. In addition, I always miss my parents, and my sisters. Especially, my favorite foods. my main hobby is snacking, so if you come to my boarding house it would be better if you bring some snack ok. I thing it is a good idea:}
Using blog in a writing class is a new experience for me. Actually, it is interesting. In addition I can learn more how to writing well from your comment or critisms. I like to write a letter to my parents in Tegal and I really enjoy it. Yet, it is different if I have to write in “blog”. I hope there is always somebody who would like to give me a/some comment or “good” critism. So don't forget to give me critism or comment ok:) I appreciate it.
THANK YOU B4.

The first and second tasks

Well, this morning I broke a nerve-racking news to the students of this class: they have to post their essay in this blog. That, I think, almost sent everyone to an instant heart attack :) because none of the students in the class had an experience of blogging before.

Yet, I'm so proud of my students because they took the challenge bravely, and I'm positive in any ways that they will produce interesting pieces of writing.

The first task that I set for them is to write a paragraph of their introduction containing their bio and a paragraph expressing their opinion of the use of blogging to publish their writing piece. The second task is an outline of their five paragraph essay, containing a thesis statement and three topic sentences. The deadline is this Friday at 10 AM (West Indonesian Time, GMT +7). Good luck, everyone!

To our curious, faithful and critical readers, we will appreciate if you can leave your constructive comments to the students' postings. They will have to write the essay on Wednesday next week at 4 - 6 PM, so we expect to get your comments by Sunday/Monday.

Thanks for stopping by!
