I felt better about my first out-class essay than my first in-class essay. I have more time to prepare. I have more confidence since I prepared more and read more information. I tried to connect the previous readings to the song. Although I proofread couple times of my essay, I still feel not good enough. I hope during the process in the class, I will do better.
I really enjoyed listen to the songs professor posted online. I love those songs. When I was writing, I kept playing the songs over and over again. From the tone of those songs, I could feel their depression and affected by them emotionally. I always like music, but actually never really pay too much attention on the lyrics. After this session, I gained more interest to listen to the lyrics more carefully and focus on the meaning of the song.
Maybe because my personality, I never really felt my life was very hard, even I start to live alone, and support myself since I was 19. I can understand the feeling that those lyric want to present. Living in a strange city or country with all the hopes, but reality usually is harsh and not everything goes to the way we want. The songs made me suddenly realize, although my life was full of hardship, compare to others I was really lucky to have my friends and my family with me in my heart all the time.
