AutumnBangoura Thanks for the info. I wish my mind worked half as good as yours does

Discussion:
Although it is somewhat ungrammatical, (which seems to be a characteristic of tweets), this tweet shows communication directed specifically towards another MATSL student. During the second week of summer courses, I started to enjoy tweeting and realized it was a great forum for humor. I think that was a good thing, (usually).

 * 1) languathinking So is twitter a bridge between where you are going and where you have been, and you can go back again?

Here I am trying to go meta, thinking about how tweets sometimes bridge thoughts between people and because they are written thoughts, there is a record that you can revisit. I found that I liked the affordance of twitter. I like saying things as succinctly as possible, sometimes maybe too succinctly, so this was a forum I enjoyed. I'm not sure if my school allows this, so that would be a constraint I would have to try to remove, but I can see how this might be a fun and interesting way to communicate in my French classes
