More than an ordinary class.

When I compare this class to any others, it's obviously different than many other courses we've taken.  And I'm not merely talking about the fact that weget to play video games.  No - the social aspects this class has afforded me (among others) the chance to build stronger friendships that otherwise been only to the extent ofmeeting in class every Wednesday.   I've visited the Second Skin viewing hosted by Andrew, Megan, and Billy where others shpwed up as well. I've gone on the D.C. trip which is no doubt going to be a fond memory, having the chance to spend the day with most of my classmates.  Furthermore, I've attended a WoW party put on by Bethany where we all had a lot of fun interacting in the real world while simultaneously being in the virtual world.  And lastly, the 300 viewing Teang and Heather orchestrated has brought a lot of us together in a social setting outside of class that likely wouldn't have been done otherwise.  That characteristic of the class I am thankful for having available to us.
