I know you are busy but....

Please don't forget to keep up your blogging. Your site should have everyone else's blog sites listed on yours. How about a blog on the lecture on Love? Any thoughts?

DOES ANYONE STILL NEED A LECTURE?

In today's newspaper (Saturday) I noticed an ad for a very prestigious lecture given by a very well known Montreal human right lawyer.  He also used to be Canada's Minister of Justice. He is giving the lecture at McGill  on Monday at 6:30.  The topic is "Pursuing Justice:Confronting Injustice". I booked 4 seats for any of you who want to go. It's first come, first serve. Let me know.

DON'T FORGET TO BLOG!!!

 

Just a reminder that you should post a quick blog about your experience giving your book presentation. What do you think about how you presented? What did you do well and what do you need to improve (we all have room for improvement!). Was your book worth all that work?

Also you need to go and visit other classmate's blogs too and leave comments. There are some amazing bloggers in this group!!! Your blogs are beautiful, funny, musical, poetic and one of them will make you hungry!

Movie Lovers,

Here is a good site if you like movies. It is two movie critics who review the latest films. There is also a large archive of reviews of films to watch also. For those of you who are doing the Kite Runner , they have an interesting discussion about the film. They also review the new film on the Rolling Stones.
