    I remember sitting around with my friends before the semester started, and reading them the email Marlen sent us all.  They all laughed at me because they knew the course was going to be miserable.  Once the class met for the first couple times I only got more scared because I saw how tough it was going to be.  But I told myself I was going to do it and stayed up on all the work and made sure I did well.  I am an english major and this course has definitely helped me become a stronger writer.  My goals as a future researcher are to go to grad school and be freakin’ brilliant.  My proudest moment was most definitely when I finished my novella.  I got to see all my hard work pay off.  I think this whole course will stick with me long after this course.  I learned a ton and I’m going to use it all as an english  major so I don’t plan on forgetting it all.  This was that class that you hated the whole semester, but as soon as it’s over you are realize you’re so glad you went through the experience and you love it.
