2008 Briggsy Awards:
Story Books, hands down .. oh and then probably these movies.
Most Boring/Useless Part of This Class:
The Hardest I Laughed in This Class Award Goes to:
I can't think of anything else, so i'm going to have to say the time brigs said something in a rather homosexual voice, then commented on how he sounded completely like a hair dresser, and then finally -- looked directly at joe and said " no offence " that indeed, was hilarious.
The Thing That I Learned That Will Be Most Useful to Know in the Real World Award Goes to:
Probably the fact that in time, if you want to be good at something, and if you practice something, it's true that you will in fact get better. No matter what it is. Never in my life did i think i'd be able to write a good poem, and then actually towards the end, they weren't so bad. So i'd say that, that if you want to do something, and work at it.. you will be able to do it. Oh and the fact that most highschool relationships are stupid. That you will get hurt, but its all worth it if it has made you who you are today .. weird how i got that out of a creative writing class, but yes, something along those lines.
The Best Thing About Brigs as a Teacher Award Goes to:
Brigs, seriously .. this remind me of when girl's make comments about how fat they are, or how ugly they are .. just so the boy they like will tell them something along the lines of " baby, you are the most beautiful girl i know, your beauty astounds me .. and that body of yours, is like a supermodel " ...but anyway, the best thing about Brigs as a teacher, is you get more outta his class then just how to write a poem or a story. My favorite teachers are the ones who will take the time to sit down and teach you something you'll carry with you way past your high school years, because lets be honest .. the number of poems i'll write from now until my death bed, are going to be pretty slim to none, but all the millions of small comments about relationships, and friendships, and family, and just living life .. those are the things i'll remember. and i'm sure those will be some of the things i'll still be laughing at, and still considering when i'm 90. and for that, i'll be forever greatful. so thanks, for that.
Thing Brigs Could do to Make This Class Better For Future Classes Award Goes to:
Help give more of a guide for things to write about for stories and poems, more prompt like things. Idk if there is a reason you don't do that .. but i think that would have helped. Half the time my problem was trying to think of something to write about, then actually writing it.
