School


Its been three weeks since school started and I have to say college really is nothing like how our old high school teachers used to say. I kinda of feel like that was their way into scaring you to get your act together and I have to say it did work. Definitely a different environment from high school and I really like the freedom you have. I feel like that makes you really wants to work harder because you are taking classes that you actually like and need for your major. 

Finally getting to college is so exciting. I feel like this is just the beginning to your adult life. So much is going to happen before we graduate, good and bad, this is all going to shape us for our future and it just super exciting. By the end of it all we are going to be completely different people and although it is super scary to think about it is also very nice to think about. 

I personally think the most difficult thing about college so far is keeping up with all the work and making sure you are doing your best to get the best grades you can. Even if you are super on top of your work you are going to have those days where it is nearly impossible to get out of bed and get your homework done, and when those days happen you have to remember why you are going to school and what you are working for.

Best Friend

 Growing up I was a very shy kid and sometimes I still am pretty shy. I met Anna when we were in first grade and ever since then we were inseparable. Almost every weekend we would hang out with each other with another girl we used to be really close with. It was our thing we had to look forward to after a long week of coloring and going to recess at school. I really believe we shaped each other childhoods and made them good because when I look back one of my favorite memories was when we used to go to Emmas house to stay the night and getting to explore the woods she had in her back yard, and when we were always a group when we had Issma for orchestra. I look back and I really think that this time was the best and happiest time of my life. For a while in middle school we stopped talking and that time went all the way up until sophomore year of high school when we started talking again. Ever since then we have become even closer and are each others biggest supporters. I am super gla...

Thoughts on Holy Hell

Image
  The Movie I watched for this project is Holy Hell (2014) dir. Will Allen. This documentary explains Allens time in a spiritual group called Buddahfest. While I was watching this film I found a few things that I would say disturbed me. One in particular was when they were doing the transfer of energy from the master. The scene of the girl getting this performed and her  seeming in pain and afterwards falling to the ground is so strange to me. There a point where David Christopher is explaining his experience with this and he says he begins to convulse. It confuses me how one man could have so much power over somebody.  Another thing that disturbed me was when Michele had to leave in fear of his group being called a cult and he took only a few people with him. It was very weird to see the the video messages his other followers sent to him. You can see in their face how brainwashed they were and how much they really did believe this man was sent from God himself. It really...

Halloween

 I feel like Halloween is definitely one of my favorite holidays, besides Christmas. I think the excitement when you are a little kid  getting home from school and rushing to eat dinner so you can get ready to go trick or treat really sticks with you as you become an adult, and although you aren't going trick or treating anymore I still find it very exciting to pass out candy and see all the little kids Halloween costumes. Getting to see the excitement you once had in another little just makes you feel so happy. Another thing that makes Halloween one of my favorites is the fun activities you get to do during the month like going to the pumpkin patch carving pumpkins or going to the apple orchard. Watching scary movies to make the nights pass by. I really think that Halloween will continue to be one of my favorites especially as I get older and eventually start a family. I think it will just bring all of those memories back.
