Share a bit about yourself. Here are some ideas to consider in your 150 word post. What are some of your (not your parents or your friends) goals (personal, academic, professional). What are some personal experiences that led to your success or struggles last year and how might this insight help you this year? What do you hope to accomplish this year? What will you do differently this year if anything? Discuss a seminal summer experience that changed your life (this is not "what i did on my summer vacation"). For full credit you must insert a picture or a video and a hyperlink to your favorite (appropriate) website. This post must be completed by August 21st by midnight-- that's Saturday. All other posts will be due by midnight Saturday.
Also, when you set up your profile please use your first name and not a nom de plume.
My name, obviously is Micayla Tatum, I had to put that as I wasn’t sure if it would show up on the blog, now that that’s over I can say that I am a person who is very goal oriented. Ask Ceci what my main conversation topic is this year and I can guarantee you it will be college and grades, which is the main focus of my life at this point in time. My obsession with getting into the right school and having the perfect resume could take hours to explain, fortunately for you, the reader, there isn’t that much time in a day.
ReplyDeleteSummer was cool for me, I spent some time traveling visiting, you guessed it, colleges. My decision is of course already made up since I’m just that kind of person, but now I have to spend the next year and a half stressing about it. My vacation was also full of hanging out with friends and having my official “debut to society” or my cotillion. My life was changed by the viewing of Ferris Buehler’s Day Off and The Breakfast Club, during the viewing of which I killed my phone.

My name is Jill Marie Fraebel. I feel a little bit intimidated about following the amazing Micayla Tatum, but here it goes. One thing about me is that spell check always says my last name is spelled wrong and it is not. My main academic goal right now is to get into a good college, but I really don't know which one I like right now. I am trying to do a bunch of extra curricular activities this year to look good for college applications. One thing that happened to me this year that I will try and avoid this year is getting behind in math class. I'm awful in math but I will make a good grade in it this year. My short term goal is just to do all of my work and make good grades this year, without going crazy.
ReplyDeleteMy summer was truly amazing this year and I did a variety of things but this asks to me to tell which of these experiences changed my life. That's an easy question for me, I went to Yonglife camp in Virginia and it was so amazing. I did crazy, fun things I'll never forget and made a lot of new friends. I don't know if we're allowed to put more than one experience but I also went tubing and water skiing for the first time this summer.
