Most interesting part of the class goes to the time when we first started, and I realized that I will actually enjoy this stuff.
Most Boring/Useless part of this class were a few of the stories we read.
Hardest I laughed in this class was probably when Timothy Treadwell was cussing out Ghost the fox.
The thing that I learned that will be most useful in the real world is to read and write about things you actually enjoy.
Best thing about Brigs as a teacher is the fact that we are constantly laughing.
Things Brigs could do to make the class better would be to break the chatty boys up. ha.
Favorite Quotes:
"Woman, go cook me a sweater!"- Brigs on talking about how women were treated unfairly.

names
Latinate feminine form of JULIUS. This name was borne by a few early saints and martyrs and was also used by Shakespeare in his comedy 'The Two Gentlemen of Verona'.
My parents named me Julia because my mom had always loved it and she had met a women who was really talented and my mom respected her. So she stole her name. ha.
If I wouldve been a boy, my parents wouldve named me Payton Andrew or Luke. Other names that my parents were thinking about naming me were Sarah, Leah, Audrie, and Jane. I like my name becasue I rarely meet someone else with that same name. I like the name Audrie, but I'm sure that if my parents had named me that, I would've wanted them to name me Julia so who knows. I have no idea what other names relate to me.

arranged marriage
oh god.
if my parents arranged a marriage for me it would be pretty lame. they would probably set me up with some perfect little church boy who was super sensitive or something. my mom and i sometimes see eye to eye on who is cute or not, so she might be able to pick someone out alright. but i still would rather not have my dad pick a guy out. that would be kind of awkward. my dad works with a guy who's religion requires parents to choose a girls husband. he said that shes not allowed to date, but she is allowed to say yes or no to whomever her dad picks out. i guess shes already said no to like 4 guys. thats so lame that they dont even get to date. you just meet a guy and talk to him and then decide if you want to spend the rest of your life with him. thaaat would suck.
