Our Awesome Fieldtrip!

When Mr. Kunkle announced to the class that we were going to go on a fieldtrip, I have to admit I was pretty confused. A field trip?! For AP Comp? What could we possibly go do that would be relevant to that (and anyways, we're seniors in high school, we don't go on field trips anymore!) However, was pleasantly suprized to hear we were going to be sitting in on a class at UW-Madison, a school that I am considering attending for my undergraduate education. :) Not only that, but we were going to an art museam dedicated to defining america through pictures, paintings, and sculptures. It was a perfect idea! It turned out to be one of the most stimulating field trips I've ever been on. The class was very interesting, even though we hadn't read the book yet. Also, it calmed my nerves about college english courses, seeing as this one was very laid back. Once we got to the art museum I found the art to be beautiful and insightful. My favorite one was the horse that appreared to be in pain (but more on that later next week!) Overal, I really enjoyed it and I'm so glad I chose to go! Yay Mr. Kunkle! :)
