The discussions in class have been great! I was a little surprised at the quiz on Wednesday but maybe we should expect that from now on. So after the stress of the quiz I was excited to continue our discussion on architecture. It all tied together nicely with the individual groups reviewing the book. That helped me so much and I think it helped everyone put the book in perspective and get a grasp on it concept. I really enjoyed watching all the buildings get blown up too. What other class gets to do that? I guess one that is studying how to blow up buildings but the point is not many. I was sad when we transitioned into art but I actually liked it. When we saw the paintings with the solid blocks of color I really felt different with everyone. I didn’t realize that colors could bring out such emotion in us. Artist must be really smart people if they are to know how their audience will react to a certain color or shape. I learned a lot today and a lot of information was thrown at us like always but it’s all valuable and I hope I can remember it all if there is a quiz Monday!
