This first blog I read was Julia's. In her blog she talk about Alan Alda's essay and how passionate Feynman was about his work. She talked about she wishes that she could be that passionate about things in her life. She also talked about how her classes and her job were allowing her to do this. This is what I said to her:
"Julia,
Reading this blog post, I totally agree! When we were talking about Alda in our group and how he only focused on what he liked to do, I thought about how cool that would be in my life. I then, like you, thought about my schedule this year and how I'm only taking classes that I really want to take. I also am not taking a language nor a science this year and am thankful because, like you those never really agreed with me. Also, I can relate to what you are talking about with Pigtails and Crewcuts because I have also worked there and that is genuine fun that would be amazing to have while working on school work. Overall, I found that our thought processes in reading the Alda essay were similar."
The second blog I read was Amy's. In her's she also talked about pursuing her interests. She, however took a more long distance approach to it. She talked about how in her future she didn't want to end up in a job where she didn't like what she was doing. This is what I said to her:
"Amy!
I could not agree with you more on this post. I just read Julia's post about almost the same thing. It seems that the three of us all want to live our lives following our interests. I, like you, fear ending up in a dead end job where I dread going to work everyday. I want to work somewhere where I can wake up every morning and look forward to work. I also agree with you when you say that you are envious of the people who are doing what they love for a living. All in all, I thought that this was a super post that described my thoughts too."
