Here we are . . .

Last blog of the year. ::sigh::

I can't believe this year is coming to a close.

In some ways it feels like we just started, and in some ways it feels like we've been here for 2,304 months. Do you feel that way too or is it just me?

One of the things I like to do at the end of the year is post some of the strange things that have come out of some of our mouths in this room.

Things like:

1) Dalton! You're distractable! It's like being a Decepticon Transformer, except not.

2) Why is Control W so close to Control S? - Jordy

3) No more talk of loins! @ Benjamin

4) Dede! Don't do drugs in my class! Kthx!

5) This babies' leg . . . Ugh! (I don't remember who)

6) Can I say something? His crotch was so difficult to fix! - Daniel

7) Get my pig off your foot! @ Benjamin

8) I'm restoring the hell outta these bricks. - Wilson

9) If we sing "Out of The Box" Imma jump outta the box. - Faith

10) The ambassador of crazyland doesn't know what's going on back there. - Benjamin (He was obviously busy this year . . . talking. Lol)

11) Can you make that work where you can't tell his head's not in the drawer?

12) Ms. L, Imma leave my sword and my shield here. - Uriel

13) I don't have time for you Cheese. - Dalton

14) Mrs. Lanham, Dalton couldn't remember where your class was and in his confusion ended up here. We went over a map of the school . . . please excuse him. - Mrs. Ferrell

15) Move that Ninja over just a little bit to the right. - Chito

16) That DUDE is in EVERY SINGLE ONE of my screens . . . he won't leave . . . he won't leave . . . he won't leave . . . - Nora

17) Drew (editing Katy Perry) - What about PMS? Me - I'm ok with PMS.

18) Me - Is it just me or does Rihanna sound like a drag queen when she's slowed down?

19) Shhhhhhhhh - Carlos, everyday when I take my diet Coke can out of it's Koozie.

20) Ms. L, is Oklahoma City in Oklahoma? - Tristan

So for your blog credit this week, I want you to do one of two things: 1) Log in and give me your favorite memory from class. OR 2) Log in and leave a piece of advice for next year's class (ala Ms. Christian).

Talk to me . . .

Blog 31 5/2/11

Howdy!

OK, folks. Time for some honesty.

I've been a bit disappointed in the blog this year. Instead of open discussions about where technology is going I feel like it's just another grade for the week. I'm trying to figure out how to get back to making this a forum for exploring technology.

Please help me do that.

Log in and give me an open honest opinion about where this blog should go. How do I make it more discussion-like without mandating how many times a week we log in, etc.

If you have a valid opinion about this topic, you can give it today. Otherwise, please think about it and let it work on you until Thursday.
