OPENMINDED


I always had a problem with English class but since I had Caitlin Fielder I was excited because I had her before so I know how she was going to be and how the class going to be since last year I had her for class I pass both of my semester with C-. I wasn’t happy with that grade but it is what it is. I always have a problem with English class but since I had Caitlin I kind have known what we were going to do for this year but no everything was different. I feel like this year Caitlin open my eyes a lot why because is crazy how she was teaching this year. I saw Caitlin very happy this year I saw her excited always manic. It was a good thing I’m not saying it was bad because every time we always had a different topic or a better one. The concept of Invisible Narratives has taught me that there are always stories behind something. I always wanted to learn more stuff or more topic that would fuck with my mind and would confused me the hell out because I know that I would get the full understanding of what we was talking about. For example, I learn that is important to have Invisible Narratives because now we see things differently like when I see movies or any Cartoon character I see them different because every character they use have a different meaning. There was a time in Class that I was really confused and I was like “WTF” when Caitlin was talking about how we judged people all the time. I think it true we judged people everyday I think is just a thing that we learn or a thing that people just do. For example, I’m not going to be that person that just because you’re a Raiders fan doesn’t mean that I have to talk shit and be like they fucking suck, fuck Raiders there weak like I know if I said that to a person to there face I would get my ass beat or get shot. In reality people always going to do it why because is a normally thing that human do and that something that is never going to change.

  1. I also appreciate how Caitlin tries to bring energy to the class in the early morning. I like how you integrated your voice into this blog post; it makes it fun and easy to read. I was also most surprised when we learned about invisible narratives, but although the concept was a bit confusing to be in the beginning, I now understand and see some invisible narratives in the world.

  2. I agree with you regarding analyzing everything now, especially movies. Every time I come across a situation, a movie, a song, etc. I always think of what invisible narratives are hidden in each of these. I agree when you say"The concept of Invisible Narratives has taught me that there are always stories behind something." The fact that you explained how things in this class were not what you expected because you took the class already was really cool. It shows that Caitlin is an amazing teacher and doesn't go "by the books."
