YOUR JOURNAL ONE RESPONSES

Great job. Sounds like you're all at least somewhat interested in Queen Elizabeth I. She's a fascinating figure -- Viitel points out, in his entry, how much she had to overcome and how, despite the doubts about whether a woman could run England, she left it in a better state than it was when she took over! We'll study this more (as well as the lives of women who weren't lucky -- or unlucky -- enough to be queens) these next few weeks.
As for this blog, it looks like we're getting the hang of it. I think that from now on, we should do the responses as new posts, as opposed to comments. That makes it easier to edit (for you), and easier for me to make comments on your individual journals. Rafi and Viitel (the boss) have already done that. The key will be to label each entry with a number -- so the title of your next entry (due Monday) should be "Journal 2". We'll talk about this more in class. Good first try!
