Though the Blog's purpose in this class was to help students practice their argumentative writing style along with tighten their writing, I think the most important thing I got out of the blog was an increased sense of thinking critically regarding Seinfeld and other aspects of popular culture. In blog #13 (regarding gay and lesbian t.v. characters) I had to really think outside of the box as I went to a website that I would normally go out of my way to avoid, as well as learn alot about television shows I do not commonly watch. In blog #3 I compared Seinfeld with curb your enthusiasm, having to make connections between Larry David and George Constanza. In blog #6 I didn't even talk about Seinfeld, but rather the movie I had seen earlier that week, "The Bucket List", and how that movie impacted me personally.
Overall, the blog was a good change from the traditional English classes, and though I was careless with my participation, I feel that overall it helped me learn more about the subject and get more involved with what was happening inside and outside of Seinfeld.
