Reading David Foster Wallace commencement speech “This is Water” was eye opening in how we truly aren’t in our own world and to take other’s perspective into consideration #ECL220

“Shipping Out” was so ironic in how David Foster Wallace was in a luxury cruise yet he felt manipulated and couldn’t truly enjoy it #ECL220

“Vortextique” by K.S. Ernst and Sheila E. Murphy was interesting due to how I was allowed to interpret an actual vortex by a set of lines #ECL220

The way that visual poetry can be expressed in a variety of ways and taken in different interpretations amazes me #ECL220

I have never read any comic books, but after reading Maus and all the work that has to be done in order to help the readers visualize and read it in a certain way makes me upset that I haven’t done so… #ECL220

I related to what Katie Walrath explained in how a read may feel disconnected in realizing it is something that occurred because that is how I felt until page 100 where the “Prisoner on the Hell Planet” comes out with a picture of Art and his mother. #ECL220

The poem “Marriage” from this week made me realize that it is normal to be afraid of the pressure and fear one may feel towards marriage #ECL220

Reading “Variations on a Theme by William Carlos Williams” really gave me the perception of a toxic person trying to jeopardize and control another persons life #ECL220

Reading “The Yellow Wallpaper” and how the husband kept on dismissing and denying the fact that his wife could be unwell or ill really annoyed me due to how he paid no attention to her comfort, I know I would have left even if the house was not finished yet. #ECL220

Reading “A Pair of Tickets” and how Jing-Mei felt was relatable, growing up Mexican American I felt very conflicted on who I was. I was to American for my Mexican family and to Mexican with the American side #ECL220

I truly enjoyed John Green’s video due to how he expresses that writing/language should not be dreaded but viewed as a way to communicate not only experiences but ideas as well. #ECL220
