Joe College

I think that todays talk was more or less a waste of time. I have already spent a great deal of time looking at colleges and have narrowed it down to a few select colleges. Cal poly, San Jose state, University of Texas, and some place in florida sponsorded by the navy. I would like to get my degree in aerospace engineering and then go through either Navy or Airforce ROTC officer training. Then become a pilot in whichever branch i end up choosing. I foresee many challenges and opportunitues to reach my goal. One is just how incredibly hard it is an complete the courses and get an Aerospace engineering degree. I have some advantages i know a lot of people  who are higher up in the education system to put in letters of reccomendation for me.

I am here

I am here! And yes I believe I have made progreso in my goals. I've read 5 literature analysis books this semester. And also getting good grades in all my classes :P I also think that fahrenheite was not so much as a good book. But more of a mediocre book of great themes and ideas :P

Essay post game analysis

I think I did alright in this essay, I had to revise a lot of it and im happy with the way it came out. If I were to make it better I would make it a little bit longer and maybe add more content from the beginning and middle of the novel instead of just the required ending. I had a few references to other parts of the novel but not as much as I would of liked. Also I would have added the part about the monk who self immolation for his beliefs. And how that ties into the story. I believe I deserve a B+ to an A.  :)
