Graduating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am graduating this summer from Richard Bland College and will be attending William and Mary in the fall, I graduated from Thomas Dale High school last year!  I will finish up my associates degree this summer by taking 18 credits and then start my degree at William and Mary.  I am more than excited to start and leave Richard Bland.  Transferring out has been such a difficult process and I have had a difficult experience getting everything together.  My advisor and professors have helped me the most here but everyone in the upper levels here do not know what they are doing at all.  William and Mary has been extremely helpful and they are allowing me to try out for their cheerleading team on april 19th which I am super excited about!  I cannot wait to be at William and Mary in the fall and actually having the college experience.  I'm taking classes at 3 different colleges this summer to finish my degree because they do not offer certain classes here that I need.  With taking 6 classes I'm relieved that majority of them are online!  This will help me with dealing with vacation, and working this summer so I don't have to take time to physically be in school.

how to become a writer

This was a good short story because it was easy for the class to relate to.  Francie the main character was a college student which we all can understand.  I wrote my essay for relating to a character on this story.  Francie was really easy to relate to because she explains the trouble of college life.  She describes living in a dorm and trying to figure out your major.  She also says how she changes her major and was doing something she ended up being unhappy with her major.  Everyone always has trouble deciding what their major is, and will always change it.  Rarely there are people who stick to their major.  The influence of your friends and peers can effect your major choice too.  When she wanted to write her friends and peers were asking what she writes and questioning her.  Being in college is the best time of your life, but you work very hard.  Having fun is always important but figuring out what you want to do for the rest of your life is a hard thing to do.

the glass movie

The glass movie was about a crazy mom and the son goes away and tries to leave and is always"the movies", the daughter Laura is obsessed with glass figurines, Laura goes in the park to hang out but is supposed to be going to business school.  There were many lessons in this movie.  You should not lie to your crazy mom because once she catches you she'll go even more crazy.  This movie took us three days in class to watch, Sweeney ended up falling asleep in class on the last day…This movie was an old movie, and kind of boring obviously.  I thought that this was a weird movie, when the son would always say he was going to the movies because it's a form of adventure for him. I think the kids wanted to get away from the mom because she was crazy and they would find things to do just to get out of the house.  We did a review game in class today that helped us go over the movie.  This helped once we finally got in our groups.  My class is very difficult and doesn't like to do what Sweeney likes to do.  This game helped us know the movie/story better.
