Which Subject do you hate the most this semester??

EssayMANIA?!

To distract your attention off MY last post (despair), which, obviously no one is interested enough to comment on lol, I have yet another completely random, demented idea.. you judge! :D

So here's the thing:

I've realised that -el7amdulillah- most of us have GREAT potential and alot to express and talk about but the problem mainly lies in the stage of "expressing" itself.

Our English could be -in most cases- not enough to express what we feel or really want to say. But that's what we're here in this very faculty for, isn't it? To be able to use the English language professionally isA.

One teacher (esmaha miss Lina, 7ad ye3rafha? :P ) once told us, echoing the words of a great leader of blue and yellow, " To get better at your English, you have to Just keep writing writing writing!"
So this is it! We simply have to keep on writing!!

So what's new about this "revelation" (lol) is that I'm suggesting a WHOLE WALL of essays !!! We could start a new blog just for essays or make it a "hangable" wall at college, whatever you'd vote for..

Why not a normal wall?

Because normal walls have always included short columns and usually have a short and not literary or, I don't know, artistically woven.
But essays, I think, are a better practice for our English. And since we have our two very helpful and sweet teachers available isA, we can ask them to help us correct our mistakes and keep this project on the right track! ^_^

One last reason for suggesting this is that I, personally, don't enjoy columns as much as I enjoy essays. They usually have a very interesting approach to the subject and are a great way to get some insight into someone's personality and way of thinking.


Wrapping it up:

>> Suggestion: An electronic (blog) or written Essays and short-stories wall.

>> What I'm asking for:

a. Our teachers' suggestions and any notes.

b. YOUR VOTES!!!
( Vote by commenting on this post and don't forget to mention your opinion and whether you're for or against this idea! :D )

You have my vote! However, i personally prefer creating a new blog just for a simple reason. Here, we'll be able to discuss a lot of different topics; we'll be free to just EXPRESS OURSELVES without having any kind of constraints. But, of course in college some "subjects" won't be that appropriate .. or i dunno people get shy n stuff. I was thinkin that other day to include some DEEP subjects for us to discuss in class, but i don't think I'm finding any kind of encouragement and enthusiasm from your colleagues ... :)

I am willing to help in any way! It's good to read others' opinions as it will enrich your prespectives, let u learn different sides of a single topic, and of course it will help you learn the right technique of criticism ;) I myself will consider sharing some essays with you:) ishta! lol

Go for it gurl! ;)

Mohamed!!!

I quote you :P

"And don't mind about others, when we wrok on something and they likes it they will join us "

Correction: :P lol

Don't worry about the others. When we work together on something, they'll be encouraged enough to start too. OR WHEN THEY LIKE (NOT LIKES) :@

hehe take care !

P.S
Malak, as long as u send me the link to the new blog I'll be ready to start the new topic :D
