102

     This semester english class is definitely way different
compared to my class last semester. 102 is so chill. My Professor
last semester was very strict on writing and how she wanted this and that. You had to do everything and I mean everything the way she wanted. She was very clear on what we will be doing and when each assignment was due. Although I hated going to her classes sometimes
or I didn't feel like writing the essays, It did help me write better. Being in her class has helped me out a lot on my writing and helped me reach deadlines on time. However, I still love my english
this semester. Sweeney is more laid back and doesn't really take things too serious. Although sometimes I do catch myself slipping
in his class.....But I'm working on it though!

College..

        I seriously can't wait until I leave Richard Bland. The school is just boring. They really should

think about making some more buildings around here so there can be way more things to do and

places to go. I mean, I think It's a great college to start off at but I really don't see how people can

be here for 3 or 4 years. Hopefully I'll be able to transfer next fall or spring. I just can't wait to

transfer and be at the university of my choice. I can't wait to experience a whole new atmosphere.

New people, more places to go and things to do. They should really think about like having a

resturant on campus too. Even though we have the cafe, but I don't think people eat there often.

Plus I've heard people complaining about the food.. idk it's just a suggestion. But they really should

make some changes around here to make the school interesting.

"How to become a Writer"

     Okaaaaaay.... so I realized how late I am starting these blog post! Better late than never right? lol.

Anyway, I want to discuss how I feel about the first story we read in class called "How to become

a Writer" by Lorrie Moore. I loved this story the most because I felt like it was the only one I can

REALLY connect with. In the story Francie is debating on which career path she will take, although

she always knew what she wanted all along. She wanted to be a writer even though she has faced

hard criticism from her family and teacher. I can relate to francie's story because I have always felt

as if I wasn't choosing the right career path and I was always afraid to hear about what others might

have thought. After a while, like Francie, I realized that it really doesn't matter what anyone thinks.

You should do what you want because YOU want to. This story really help me realize even more

to not worry about what others may say, as long as you feel like you're doing the right thing for your

life, that's all that really matters.
