The Beginning

I ponder what to write here. Time passes. This class is definitely quite the mix of people, and hopefully it will result in something enlightening. I have faith and I would bet on that. As for the teacher, I am not really sure if she is Mrs. Cardona or Ms. Vernes. The first day I was not sure if she had become married or gotten a divorce because she was not wearing a ring and referred to it as a name change, but the "Mrs." allowed me to catch on. *sigh* only the third day and I am already missing Summer. I didn't accomplish or do much this Summer but it is the freedom that I long to have again. Since I can't control the seasons or schedule, might as well focus on what I can do in my current situation.

So, in other words, make some goals.

1. Improve my writing so I can feel confident when composing essays for college applications as well as my Post-Secondary Enrollment Option (PSEO) essay for next year at the University of Minnesota.

2. Improve my writing so that it becomes more enjoyable to read, even if it happens to be a research paper of all seriousness.

3. Learn 117 new vocabulary words. Why 117? Well why not?

4. Uncover new ways to express my inner thoughts that dwell deep within my mind, buried under a mass of material and shallow obstacles.
