Blink - first week of 4th marking period

ok basically it is monday and I am required to blog on mondays.

THE FOURTH MARKING PERIOD IS UNDERWAY!!

I have decided to read the book Blink a by Malcolm Gladwell. It is a very contemporary nonfiction piece dealing with a field of popular science and psychology. Though I don't know much about the book as I just started, I believe it is about the differences in between human subconscious thought and human analytical (conscious) thought. I love reading about our species.

I am not sure yet what to do with this final project but I believe I have a good jumping off point with this book. Perhaps I could conduct a little experiment of my own and write about it? Who knows. I will make it my duty this week to find out exactly what I should do. In the meantime I will continue to read and look for more books dealing with this topic (havent found one yet other than The Tipping Point another book by Gladwell)!
