This semester has been a very demanding semester in terms of the assignments that need to be completed by the end of this March, which is two weeks away. All in there are 19 assignments that each and everyone have to work on, of which 7 are group assignments. Frankly speaking I dreaded group assignment for reasons that time management would not come easy and it can be emotionally daunting. As human I can handle the mental and physical stress but not very well in handling my emotion when come to accomplishing the group work.
And for those reasons of this semester’s assignments for the first time, I enjoy very much of the literature courses that I am taking particularly this one EDU 3234 Reading and Project Work for Teaching Literature in ESL Contexts. I am autonomous of my researching with ease of communication of my findings, discussing them via telephone or sms with my friends, the way I like it done- self paced, self-directed, self-learning. I can do a lot of reading as time suits me which I always enjoy very much, getting myself very good understanding of what I should know and learn.
Since last Sunday after I managed to accomplish assignments 10 and 11 then submitting them to PPL, I began mentally planning to write on my position and research papers. I realised quite late that I am not supposed to write of the same work for position and research papers. I was planning to write on “Rhinoceros” for my position paper. And I knew very well I enjoyed racing my mind between “Rhinoceros” and “RUR” as I read “RUR” last week.

Speaking to Zaini over the phone yesterday however inspired me in a very motivating manner. Zaini is one very hardworking friend I have ever known throughout my life. Here I am going through poems that I enjoyed reading for the course EDU 3216 Teaching the Language of Poetry; “Sir Patrick Spein” (I love this poem), Robert Frost’s “Mending Walls”, “Desert Places”, “The Road Not Taken”, "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening", Robert Browning’s “My Last Duchess” and Matthew Arnold’s “Dover Beach” to name a few.
Well, to finalise I might be writing my research paper on “Rhinoceros” and “RUR” while my position paper on one of the poems that I have already analysed of the previous Semester.
