Class made me think of eggs way too much! But to comment on that, I definately never thought of breaking the egg open in anyway to do something. It just never did. Juggling was the first thing I thought of and it stuck with me until I did it. Eating a raw egg was something I haven't heard of in a while. The "nine things" were thought provoking. The egg breaking was a suprise event (oh so many eggs). I was happy to get some laughs out of my video. Keeps it from being dull and boring.

Brad Curtis The Egg And Eye

For my egg assignment, I decided to juggle the egg plus another one. I have never really juggled anything before, so it was interesting to try, especially since most likely they would break if I dropped them, henceforth not being able to do it again. I started out with the one just to give it a try and prepare myself for two. This proved to be not all that helpful since I did drop them. Eventually, one did break, thus stopping my juggling eggs as one was simple to do. This whole thing fits into the "round" thing as both eggs were round and juggling them around was in a round shape. Though short lived (I mean really short lived), I did enjoy trying something out again that I haven't done in a while. This still reassures me I shouldn't take up juggling as a career.

Class was interesting and does live up to the name "Seeing Sideways." This allows me to see things in new ways to think about. Sometimes it can be a way I have never thought about. The syllabus did made me think a little more about it, but I still will typically use it every week to look at the calendar if it has one. If it doesn't, well, I guess I won't be using it that much, now will I? Wayzgoose (am I even spelling it right!?) was interesting. I have never heard that before. One more thing to add to the new list. I don't see myself using that word outside of this class as probably most people haven't heard it before (hm, this matches the reaction in class when first hearing it). I don't want to go around saying it and have to explain it and/or have people look at me like an idiot. As for "round," this can be multiple things. Besides the obvious classroom and egg, one of the things first used by me was my sunglasses as I went home, which includes another thing by way of my steering wheel I used to even drive my car. The biggest one for me is at home with my remotes and analog sticks on the game controllers. I can use those a lot, which goes along with my interesting fact I said in class.

Here it is. It will be interesting to see (looking at sideways, I suppose) what new things I will learn.
