Assignment 12: "txt me when u get here." "k." ...Yay progress.


To say that new technology won’t change the way things are written is kind of arrogant. It definitely changes things up. I mean, have you seen text messages? “k. Where you at? C u there.” And my all time favorite…”lol”. Gosh. If I could erase one thing from the written English language, it might be that. I don’t know why but it gets under my skin. I mean, even blogs change the way we “write” things out. More typing now than writing, but you know what I’m saying. I can appreciate where he’s coming from though. To say that we will go back to doing things manually, and treating it like it’s a new thing to us. I can relate with that but it had to deal with drawing. I had spent so much time over this past year on my computer designing things and illustrating thing with a mouse pad. And when I picked up a pencil, I was a little rusty and I was kind of frustrated with my level of drawing. But the more I drew the better I felt and my level of drawing increased to just about what it was before. This shows that old habits die-hard and are sometimes the best way to get things done. There’s no school like old school.
