5-5:10pm: How are you? Tell us about/narrate your day…
5:10-5:25pm: Review of last class… What we’re doing this semester.
5:25-5:35pm: Questions about the syllabus.
5:35-5:45pm: Freewritng. Not just how you begin an essay, or a reaction, or anything. Yes, you should always edit and organize your composition later, but there should always be a sense of FREEDOM, and a freeing feel to your writing. Writing is often taught from the riles of and calls for more structure, rather than expression. Even a critical essay, or “analytical” one, should be expressive. Expression should ALWAYS be free on the page. Thoughts? What has your experience been?
5:45-6pm: What’s an essay supposed to do, anyway?
6-6:15pm: When you hear “Composition”, what is the first thing you think?
6:15-6:35pm: Composition is a piece of writing, a submission that is composed, together, self-supported. A stand-alone piece, if you will. It should also be noted, that composition entails several parts, and a consistency of Art, expression, uniqueness and music..
Post your own definition of “Composition”, below
6:35-6:40pm: What is your style of Composition? Does it involve any Humor? Search for Happiness? Or, a strengthening of existing Happiness?
6:40-7pm: Close…. What’s on tonight’s page? What are you going to write in your journal?
Assignment: Write in your journal, OBSESSIVELY. And, more importantly, FREELY.
And….. please buy David Sedars’ book if you haven’t already.

Oh… and overthinking FREEwriting is the whole reason you freewrite, to free yourself from thinking and overthought. Sorry, I think that’s hilarious… AND YOU SHOULD TOO!!!

Movies are one of my favorite things, but my favorite composition style is music because there are just so many different kinds. Music can touch people in all sorts of ways, and even one song can mean something different to everyone that listens. Having something you can connect to and become a constant makes it the best.

Yes! when composition is expressed in songs or movies it really sticks with me, For example the song Joke’s on you from the Birds of prey movie had such an impact on me that I got a tattoo of it

While my composition generally is built up mostly of humor i still try to use evidence and speak from a position of reason and logic as i dont think random ramblings and things like that help a conversation or argument point. I dont generally listen to music as i personally dont really enjoy music all that much.

I think my favorite form of composition is music. The reason is because of all the different sounds put in a certain place to make a melody. Also, the various sounds that could be from an instrument or even synthetically made with a computer.

As much as I love humor i find it incorporated into how I talk more than anything I compose. My dad has showed me many comics that fostered my love of comedy as a child but I still find it difficult to intentionally insert that into any thing I am writing. Reinforcing my own happiness is the best explanation to give for what I think writing does for me and acts as a representation of how I was feeling at the time.
