For this blog, I decided to stray from the norm a little bit. I think there is no one person that makes this English II class dramatically better and more interesting than my other classes. It requires a mixture of different people from different places. I'd have to say that Kirkland Buchanan is definitely one VERY interesting person in our English class. With him in the mix, the class discussions immediately become more flavored. It is always interesting to hear what he has to say, even if I am at odds with him most of the time (albeit silently). But in our class, it is usually Kirkland who sets the ball rolling. Not all the time, though. There is also Sohrob Moslehi, who I am also often at odds with due to his controversial claims on religion. I am rather in awe of him and others, however. I had never saw a brain that could connect the dots so quickly (OK, except for Christian Cattan, who also has much to bring to the table of class discussions). Behind the scenes is my good classmate and locker partner Zainab Abdullah, who can always show me the other side of the story. It is also very nice to have Shaponi Nalls and Kionis Watts in my class. They always crack me up, in a good way of course. Of course, there are others in the class I would like to acknowledge, but for the sake of length, the blog stops here. Happy Thanksgiving!
