Assignment Two

World of Automatons
Make another post to your infant blog (and soon you will become a writing machine like the young woman in the image at left--one of my former students).

Possible topics related to the content of our first two classes include:
"I do what they tell me" ("If they tell me to sign up for Reading and Writing Advanced Essays," for example . . .)
"My Passion"
"School is not cool"
"Putting on Airs"  (Montaigne says he avoids it in his essays)
"My Naked Self" (Think:  Montaigne's aesthetic)
"Photos of Me"  (How do you feel about having your photo taken?  Do you have a favorite photo of your self?  One you hate?  One that brings up strong memories?)
"X" (whatever you want it to be)

Consider using a concrete particular (a specific image or experience, for example) to find your way into the topic.

Length:  You decide
Due date:  10 a.m., Wednesday, January 12th
