Reflections: Week 1 and 2

The first week of class I wasn't registered for the class, so I didn't make it the first day of class. I did make it the second day, thankfully. We learned what Environmental Health is and why it is important. We also did a Star Wars activity with rope circles, where we tried to fit everyone into the circles and at the end had to fit everyone's feet into one circle. When we got to the last circle everyone just yelled out ideas until one was heard and we just did it. I think that this helped us to see that it can be like that in the world today. We can't all speak at the same time, or noone will be heard, which is why it is important that we elect the right person to speak for us and what we want to be done. As long as we are willing to all work together we can accomplish anything!

The second week was a little tougher, as we tried to learn about blogging. I am new at it and am finding it a little bit difficult. It is getting a lot easier the more that I am on it and just try new things. I think this will be a good learning experience and a nice change in the way of doing class work.

I am really excited to see what is to come in the class and all the topics that we will be able to discuss. I haven't taken a class like this before and am very intersted. Cant wait!!!!:)
