10B: This is Me

                In my blog, I try to discuss different parts of my freshman year of college and ways to succeed, while incorporating personal experiences and tips that I’ve acquired, not just from my first few months at college, but over a life time. Though this blog post may be a little different. For this blog post, I will be answering a series of questions that talk about myself and different inspirations and values that I hold.  

                Listed below are questions that I’ve decided to answer this week:

1.       What is the first creative moment you remember?

2.       Was anyone there is witness or appreciate it?

One of the first creative moments I remember as a child was probably writing my first song. Though I was thirteen and had known nothing of “love” I as if I had lived it all before. I’d write about a man coming to protect me from all wrong and things along that nature.

My best friend from back home is actually my neighbor, so we spent all the time in the world together. So, for me, it comes as no surprise that I wrote this song while I was with her. We wrote of love we have never felt, and of heartbreak that would appear only in the scariest of nightmares. But we used to write together and see who came up with the best song (naturally I always won because I was the older of the two of us!) And with all of this being said, it is great to experience a creative moment with a friend, or someone in general, because they can verify that it really is great.

3.       What is the best idea you’ve ever had?

4.       What made it great in your mind?

The best idea I’ve ever had… well this is tricky to narrow it down to one topic. We’ve all experienced a few spontaneous ideas here and there, but my all-time top would have to be the choice of coming to college.

For one, in today’s society, it is hard to get a good job without a college degree. But also, I know the journey is going to be long and stressful but I know that in the end, I will be happy with my choice. If I didn’t go to college, I wouldn’t have been so independent and have made the effort to take control of my own future

And for the last set of questions today:

5.       What is the dumbest idea?

6.       What made it stupid?

7.       Can you connect the dots that led you to this idea?

Probably one of the dumbest ideas I’ve had in my life was taking a break from my job at the daycare I had previously worked at. I loved working there with the children, and since I am going to be a teacher in the future, it only helps my resume. I originally took a break because I was applying for school and I was getting stressed with all the senior school work on top of that. the thing that made it so tough, was the fact that I couldn’t return when I wanted to because they filled my spot. That was my favorite job, and I regret that I threw it away.

I’m happy to have shared a little information about myself with you this week, hope you look forward to more next week J
