I began my college journey in the spring of 2017 at MSJC. My first semester I was enrolled in English-098 with Mr. Sisk and in the fall of 2017 I was enrolled in English-101 with Mrs. Miller. Before I enrolled, I had this urge to major in literature as I felt like my writing skills were strong. Ever since taking both classes I do feel like my writing skills have only gotten stronger. When it comes to my reading and thinking skills, I get frustrated because I tend to lose interest in certain subjects. I love reading fictional stories, but when it comes to reading articles about politics or history for instance, my mind loses interest quickly. I do feel like I can strengthen my thinking and reading skills.

I have always enjoyed reading and as I grow older, I find myself being interested in new topics, such as the brain. My favorite book is My Sister’s Keeper and I can honestly read that book over and over and never get tired of it. I also enjoy hiking. My friend and I try to hike a new place at least once a week. I have been trying to be a little more active for the benefit of my health but because of our conflict of schedules we have not been able to go more than once a week and I am too scared to go by myself because I fear getting lost or falling and breaking a leg and being stranded. Every semester I have enrolled in a PE class, which has helped with staying active and allows me to have a solid workout at least twice a week. I also enjoy long drives with no actual destination. There is something very calming about just being on the road with music playing and no actual destination. My all-time favorite drive has been taking Highway 1 all the way up north. Super long but the scenic view makes it so worth it. Those are just a few of my …show more content…
One goal I would like to complete before I die is to write a book. I do have many ideas and as of right now I still do not have a clue of where to begin. Sometimes I get so lazy to just sit and write, but it is only because I get frustrated at myself for not knowing where to begin. I do hope this class helps me become a better thinker and allows me to work on my writing skills.
I would be lying if I said I am not nervous about the workload for this class. Anything that has to do with reading requires commitment and at times I tend to procrastinate. For this reason, I have deleted all distractions from my phone, such as Netflix and Pokemon Go. I have even warned my friends ahead of time that I might not get to hang out as much this semester because I am taking a total of six classes, and I just will not have time to waste. I am excited about this though, because I have a feeling I will save a lot of money this way.
I am fortunate to have regular access to a computer with internet and access to Microsoft Word and Adobe. At this very moment, I do not have questions for you, but I am sure I will as we progress in the semester. When those questions come up, I will definitely ask you either in person or via
