This past week in class we went over our poems we wrote, talked about stories out of the Mercury Reader and started talking about certain phrases that are specifically known to certain groups of people.  Writing the poems was kind of fun.  I wrote mine about snow days back home in Grand Blanc.  The stories out of the Mercury Reader weren’t the most interesting.  Especially story number 5.  That was weird.  Talking about the different phrases was pretty fun though.  It was interesting seeing how people knew exactly what was being said at one minute, then the next have no idea.
