Bob Dylan: "Blowin' in the Wind" (1963)
"I love Bob Dylan. This song went really well with what we were talking about with the cold war and such."
Abby Muller replied to Gary Anderson's discussion Modern Art"I liked the modern art a lot because some of these i've actually seen in person and the artist are more well-know in this time period. I feel like they're more vibrant and colorful."
Abby Muller commented on Kayla Rae's group Heard Any Good Music Lately?"the band Beach House is one of my favorites right now."
Joaquin Zuniga commented on Abby Muller's blog post Just Me"I think that things that define you are the decisions you've made or unfortunately made for you. You can strive to be a better student, but not study or do your homework, but still try to be a good student. Does that make you a good student?"
Grace Stapleton commented on Abby Muller's blog post Just Me"Everything defines a person. People judge and they may not know the whole truth. No one should be defined based off other people. They should only be seen as an individual."
Jessi Jorgensen commented on Abby Muller's blog post Just Me"To me, what defines a person is the way they can hold themselves in public. Personality is the most vivid part of a person and before looks and and how they dress (all the superficial stuff) I always see personality. Are they approachable? Self…"
Duncan Brown commented on Abby Muller's blog post Just Me"It's odd to me that people try to define themselves; definitions only applies to words and ideas, actual objects are described. I won't venture to even describe myself if I can avoid it. Rather, people can see me as they like.…"
Abby Muller commented on Gary Anderson's videoLangston Hughes Meets Nike
"I really like this poem, and the video goes great with it. It's quite inspiring."
Abby Muller commented on Megan Teschner's blog post What's the point of summer reading??"I think that summer reading is a good thing. I like the fact that i'm forced to read a book because I'm not sure i would otherwise. I often feel overwhelmed when trying to find a book to read just because there are so many. This way i can…"
Abby Muller commented on Connor Bieda's blog post College..Ready or Not?"I personally am ready for college. I'm ready to be on my own and do my own thing. I mean i bet that there is plenty left to learn about being on your own in college, but i'm prepared to learn those things and i'm prepared to make…"
Abby Muller commented on Michael Weber's blog post Should Finals be Important?"I agree that finals shouldn't be worth as much as they are, but i do think that it's a way that we can recap the entire class. some teachers go way to indepth with their finals though. It's really annoying to have to study the little…"
Abby Muller commented on Carly Mckay's blog post Hello, Youtube! Welcome to Fremd."I think that allowing students to access youtube has been one of the best ideas that fremd has ever had. we put them in presentations all the time and it tends to help get the point across well. The only down side is that it's an easy…"

Abby Muller commented on Kristina Lopez's blog post Volcano"I think that this kind of news would make the world a little more entertaining. I mean I might even start actually watching the news. I also think that people should just stop trying to guess when the rapture is going to happen because no one…"
Abby Muller posted a blog postJust Me
I would define myself as a follower of God, a person of wonder, cautious, confusing at times, an explorer, and maybe a few other things. What I define myself as is different from what you define yourself as. We may share things in common but we’re not the same. Defining yourself comes from you’re hopes, dreams, and what you value. Some things may define you more than others. What others define you as, also has a role in who you are. Other’s can sometimes see what you can’t. Have you ever…See More

whitney cummings (caleo) commented on Abby Muller's blog post Be Proud of Your Past"I was suprised to find out some very interesting facts about my family's past.

Be Proud of Your Past
As an assignment we American Studies students were asked to learn a little bit about our family history and present it to the class. Almost every person who presented started with..." nothing exciting really happened in my family." or "my family is pretty boring." After they spit out somthing along those lines they would tell this stellar story of how their grandparents were smuggled across the boarder or something. so why do…

Everyone Can Be A Singer With A Little Help From Technology
What’s up with the auto-tune these days? Seriously! Like in the movie High School Musical, they just sound so bad. The girl, Vanessa right? She sounded like she was choking on something the entire time or sucking in helium. That in turn will kill her brain cells.
Nowadays, it seems like many artists…

Taking Time To Smell The Flowers
On a daily basis how many times do you stop for a moments just to focus on what is going on around you? Recently I've been noticing how I often rush through things and don't think much about it. This world has so much to offer and we don't even take the time to appreciate it. As the next season falls into place, everything in nature starts to change. Like the color of the trees, or the temperature. You can see all the little squirrels gathering food for the winter that's yet to come. Not only… Continue

What's up fellow ningers?! :D Happy New Year! Somehow I ended up on the Ning this morning. Don't know if Mr.Anderson and Mr.McCusker remember our American Studies class from 09-10. Great times. It doesn't seem like this Ning has continued on over the years. What happened?See More
Rachel Izydorek posted a status"randomly thought about the ning today... every once in awhile i miss high school and how much simpler life was."
Adam Babcock left a comment for Bridget Babcock"There are many options out there, but to standardize is to tell a lot of teachers to learn something new or unfamiliar... it's a tricky subject. That's why I'd love to start my own school, powered by Edmodo, Ning, etc :)"
Bridget Babcock left a comment for Adam Babcock"I'm overloaded with social networking for school. They should make something exclusively for high school. Million dollar idea right there. Consolidate and simplify. "

The Civil War in 4 Minutes!
"This amazing video has been removed from Youtube, but--at least temporarily--you can find it here."
Justyna Chlopecka posted a blog post9/11 Skylines and Turnstiles
I'm not usually someone who writes a lot , not publicly anyway but I do love to express my self through art, usually visual art but most of the time the art I make is influenced by something . In this case it's a song a written by one of my favorite musicians as a response to the feeling of horror and disbelief as he watched the Twin Towers in New York go from icons to ruins on 9/11/01. The song is sad,…See More
