GLEE!

Like Enich, I love Glee! I reserved my spot in the lounge over an hour before the program started. Anyways, also like Enich, I wasn't exactly sure how to connect Glee to American Conversations. Luckily, I got some mail from my parents today, which included a StarTribune article titled "How joining the 'Glee club' might just save the world". I really enjoyed the article and I was able to correlate it with our American Conversations discussions. Glee is about a diverse group of teenagers, generally considered "misfits", who all have a passion for music. I think this can be paralleled with Americans feeling spirited about freedom. The Glee members all have different musical tastes, but are able to coexist in a way that essentially fits everybody's needs. Similarly, freedom means different things to different people, but Americans are able to work together to bring the greatest amount of good to the greatest amount of people. We fight for our freedom, just as the teenagers fight keep the Glee club alive. I encourage everyone to watch Glee. Tuesday nights at 7:00pm. Meet Enich and me in the Hoyme lounge!
