Writing is anything that comes to mind. Some may write to express their feelings, some may write to send a deep message, entertainment, comedy, or some may free write just to do something for fun. Most writing I see comes from stories or newspapers. I believe writing is just a longer way to tell a story, it gives you time to think about things instead of just looking at it.

A remix is taking an original copy and adding your own creativity to it. I understand remix in terms of music, but if you think about it a remix can be for anything such as computers, phones, clothes, and cars. A remix is just a way to make the original have a little more flavor.

Writing and remixing have a connection because when you remix you are transforming, editing, and correcting the little things you don’t like, making it more interesting. In writing, you have to draft at least three different times, but you’re only transforming the text and adding to make it better.

During this course, I expect to gain more knowledge and learn more about English. I expect to engage in every class activity to show respect and complete all assignments with no problems. I will give my undivided attention in class so I can sink every knowledgeable lesson into my mind. I expect you to learn from me as much as I will learn from you Mr. Maynard. As for my classmates, if we follow everything the civility clause says we will have an astonishing semester.
