AUDIENCE WHO?

Wow! The discussion of getting to know your audience is really something. It tremendously shows you just exactly how different we all are. We all have different ways of life, dreams to live, views of change and religion, and so much more. Doing this discussion made me realize just how impossible it is to make everyone happy. You just cannot do it. Everyone strives so hard to be an individual and they believe so many different things, and you go off of your own beliefs when you talk or write to them. So how do we not offend them? You don't offend them. They offend themselves. You cannot make someone feel a certain way or answer a certain way. This is why the Know Your Audience assignment is so interesting. It shows you just how different everyone is in the class. Some are reserved and follow the beaten path and others want to spice it up and live on the edge. I myself prefer to do both. That way I get all experience I can. Doing this assignment has made me realize that I like to push peoples buttons. I like to break them out of their comfort zone and get their true opinion. I noticed this from some of the responses to my question I asked and also the responses to my answers. This assignment, I think, even helped us to know ourselves. I catch myself re-reading what I wrote before I submit my response. I giggle everytime always thinking, is that really how I feel? This assignment was enjoyable. I learned a lot about my other classmates. I saw just how different we all are and how some of us want the same or similar careers. I took an online class so that I would not have to interact with my classmates, and now I am being forced to. I hate having to do assignments like this, but I did like getting to read the answers posted from each individual. It was quite entertaining. I wonder to myself if anyone else felt the same way I did? Did they like reading the responses or not?
