A mi me encanta muchos animales pero yo tengo tres son que mi favorito. Elefantes son más importante que los tres para mi. Elefantes son un símbolo de buena suerte cuando el trompa está arriba. Tambien, el […]

I really enjoyed reading this. The way it is written is very poetic. I like the comparisons being made between your life and Thoreau’s. Where you could have criticized or complemented Thoreau I think you took an […]

I completely agree that Thoreau was hard to read. His language is oftentimes dense and I found myself disagreeing with many of his ideas and most especially his attitude. Not many people can take the luxury to […]

The people who commented on my Wikipedia plans suggested that I add pictures and replace bad sources. They also warned me to remain unbiased because my topic can quickly become biased. As far as pictures go, I […]

From the authors that we have read I relate the most to Annie Dillard. Pilgrim at tinker creek is beautifully written and it doesn’t feel like a chore reading her narrative. The two things I love about Pilgrim a […]

When reading Annie Dillard’s Pilgrim at Tinker Creek, I was struck by her sense of constant observation. I found this book relatable to a startling degree–I’ve never seen my own thoughts reflected back at me, […]

The writings of Bill McKibben have had a particularly profound effect on me. I hesitate to label his impact on me as either positive or negative due to how I agree and am moved by his sentiments, but at the same […]

Saturday mornings I wake up slowly, letting the headache of sleep fall away from the bed and the covers and the cold. When I roll over to meet the light sifting in from my window, I can almost see the singular […]

Of all the authors we have read in this course, I would have to say Dillard interested me most. I appreciate her well-roundedness and many references to sources or case studies I otherwise would never have found. […]

The author that had the most impact on me was the first author we read, Bill McKibben. He opened my eyes to how much of nature is altered by humans, and even things we consider natural are regulated by people or […]

I will admit that reading Walden was not always easy for me. Half-way through “Economy” I found myself getting constantly distracted by my own thoughts about deadlines, social events, and meetings . I would have […]

I was sewing my pants last week using your words as my thread. As the needle moved in and out, I read each stroke as it plunged into the fabric. My haphazard tailoring hid the damage on my second hand corduroys. […]

I have always viewed going out into nature as a way to escape. As an only child, I am not quite sure what I have always been trying to escape from, but into the woods, I continued to go. My first solo “hike” I rem […]

When I write I often do so in large brushstrokes. I cover entire mountains in a moment and write like I am running out of time. I sometimes feel like I am running uphill when I write. Adding more and more just to […]
