Week 9 Blog Entries

This week, you will need to write a short creative entry of your choosing, whose only restriction is to use five prescribed words within the entry. Your set of words will be common to only a small group in the class, each of whom will write his or her own entry; different groups will use different word sets. The groups and sets are as follows:

Sean, Nicole, Gigi, Nichole, Adam: cartel, harlequin, wakeboarding, pump, bumbershoot
Stephanie, Celeste, Matt, Brooke: severity, heroine, agreed, tax-and-spend, learn
Amy, Hannah, Kaitlin, Kyle: lode, boor, stonewall, coach, metastasis
Jewel, Elise, Christine, Will: flask, flight, makeshift, beadle, sequential

All of these sets were generated at random from the Oxford English Dictionary online (well, I disqualified a few really obscure choices that came up...). Your commentary should focus on the accuracy and smoothness with which the writers use the required elements, and as usual on any other things you wish to reflect back to the entry author.
