A brief word – This is not meant to cause offence in any way, shape or form.

Now I can get away scot-free with being rude and intolerant.

So my year level is divided in opinions on this subject. Some love the lack of boundaries we have, myself included. As Adrian voiced today, some are grasping desperately for non-existent scaffolding. I know that he was in favour of accepting their ways but-

“What’s the point in us going to a class on blogging when we can just do it by ourself?”

Just because you can manipulate clay into a pot or bowl, does not mean you shouldn’t take pottery classes. Or visit a gallery of local sculptors. Also-

“I don’t think he can force us to be creative.”

He’s not. Note: you can blog whatever you like. This is an unlecture. We are inventing this as we go.
Force implies boundaries, restriction. I’d say there’s a lot less of that than in other courses.

“There’s no use in doing this.”

Look – if you were a PR student, and you had a subject on Public Address, would you think twice about practising talking to an audience that isn’t necessarily interested in your developing persona? Goodness, it’s as though the dirt track changes to grass and you suddenly are incapable of running along it.

I’d rather a scar to a tattoo.
