Post #1: Introduction

        

The template that I chose for my blog space is from the “Awesome” section.  I chose a drawing of what appears to be a vine in a variety of colors, growing in a variety of directions.  The vine reflects my personal growth and the variety of colors reflects my openness to new ideas.  I chose a template from the “Awesome” section as I always do my best to have a positive attitude and be happy.  As I have grown, my life has evolved in many different directions.  I am a firm believer that there is a reason for everything, and am willing to accept challenges with this in mind.

            My health and my family are the most important to me.  I have learned that I need to take care of myself first, in order to be healthy so that I can be a dedicated mother to my two young children and a dedicated wife to my loving husband.  I am passionate about raising my children and preparing them to be successful on their own when they become adults.  I am also passionate about always striving to do my very best at everything including my education.

I am in school as I have grown to appreciate and value education, want to set a good example for my children, and use my education to obtain a good career to support my family.

I hope to get a lot out of this English 1A class.  I hope to become a more attentive reader, and improve upon my reading comprehension skills.  I also hope to improve my vocabulary and writing skills.

I see what I value most helping me with my college career as I have a great desire to be successful, therefore believe that this desire will motivate me to dedicate myself to my college education and be motivated to study hard.  I also hope that my openness to leaning new things will increase my desire to focus in areas that I may lack interest and/or gain interest in areas that may be new to me.
