Expectations

So far all of the expectations I had for this course have been unfulfilled and in a sense exceeded. Now...that doesn't really make a lot of sense, but I'll explain. I didn't expect that this course would have such a strong focus on the geographical aspect of text and the concepts of place and space, and in that way, my expectations for a essay based, classical literary English course have been unfulfilled. I did however find that, moving through the course, some of the experiences went beyond what I expected and exceeded what I would have expected had I expected the goings of the course thus far. In that way, expectations, which I did not have, would have been exceeded.

Experiences include:
        1. Maps (Crime Map, Sexual  Assault Map, Arcade Fire Map thing..., and Hypercities being my favourites)
       2. The talk about The Edmonton Queen, and further, meeting Mr. Hagen and hearing his response to the multitude of questions we all had)

Therefore, my suspicions, my many expectations have been exceeded and discounted, shaped and deformed, by this class. I am looking forward to the future. And the future literature. I hope my partners map isn't too far of a drive....or walk (as I think I might be out of shape...)
