You might be (or might not be) familiar with "Cuentos de la americana en España," my study abroad blog, and now a year after I first left for Spain, Whatever Works is ready to be the next chapter.
So what does this blog exactly entail? For starters, it is in conjunction with my JOMC 256 Feature Writing class, but I'm picturing it will include some news roundup, a dash of journalism-related things, a little bit of Mad Men obsessing and a whole lot of music. Of course there are bound to be other topics as well, but my hope is this blog will provide an introduction to the current entertainment I find myself enjoying.
Now to the title, Whatever Works. It primarily comes from a Woody Allen film of the same name--I happen to be a Woody Allen aficionado (go see his latest film, "Midnight in Paris," you WON'T regret it). However, I also feel that it is an accurate description of what my college life has become. Sleeping in the library during finals? whatever works. Ignoring that 200 page reading to go out with your friends? whatever works. And keeping a collection of rambling thoughts in a blog-like fashion? whatever works.
Here's to a semester of blog commitment.
