Hi Sandra,
I thoroughly enjoyed my first day of class (Coms 361). The icebreaker went well, and you kept us all smiling. Good job!

I also a question for anyone who knows...when will the first posting be up for us to repsond? All I see so far is the previous postings for 2007...If i can think of anything else i'll make sure to post another comment...lol :)

Hi Communication Class World~
This is my first class back to school in a tid bit of time, sooo I am thrilled that Mrs. Sandy is such an energy filled positive teacher. I hope to increase my communication skills, as this will greatly impact all areas of my life. I would love to be able to learn how to get my point across in thirty seconds or less. If I can accomplish that skill...WOW..the world will be mine for the taking! C u all soon. ~ Tiffany Wall
