School
I graduated High School in 2001. I wasn't a very good student in high school for several reasons. I didn't like homework. I didn't like classwork. I didn't like tests, though I liked them more then homework and class work. I liked labs. I didn't like lab reports. I didn't like waking up early for school. I didn't like detention for being late. I didn't like all the structure and discipline. I like to apply my own discipline to myself, not get bullshited by others. I did like being in the band. I did like history. I did like music theory. I loved running cross country and track. I was also diagnosed with ADD. I used to day dream a lot. I would day dream and fall asleep during tests and other supposedly important activities. Another thing I didn't like is that although it took me a long time to learn how to read, when I wanted to figure it out, I figured it out. Since my mom read to me when I was very young it wasn't hard to learn how to read, but I was so stubborn I didn't want to learn how for a long time, once I did learn I was probably better than most kids at my age. What I didn't like is that we had to read and follow along as a class all the time. I was always pages ahead of the rest of the class, or in some casses, already done the book and or chapter. What sucked is that I would get called on and not now where the rest of the class was so I would always get in trouble for not paying attention and/or being insubordinate. As you have probably also noticed I'm not a great speller, never was, never will be. Usually people can decipher whatever I'm trying to say though.
I went to school at Gloucester County College from fall 2001 to fall 2003. I liked, no, loved Gloucester County for several reasons. No one forced me to go to school. No one forced me to do homework. No one forced me to study. No one forced me to pay attention. I could do all this when and how I wanted to. Another reason I liked Gloucester County College is because of the Athletic department. They were very supporitive, the traveling and running was fun, the coaches were awesome, and I made some good friends, a couple of which are most likely gonna be long term friends.
This spring (2004) I will be going to Rowan University. I'm am a Communications Major with an emphasis on Communications Studies. I am also going to try to pursue a minor in Politcal Science. After I get a BA, I think I will apply to law school. Some law schools I'm thinking about applying to are: University of Pennsylvania, Villanova, Rutgers, and University of Michigan.
Rowan University
Rowan University. RU is much different then Gloucester County College. Registering for class at RU was not a fun process. It took me 7 hours to get everything straight there. It took me less than an hour at GCC.
Currently I'm on the XC team and in the winter and spring I'll be on the track team. It's not much different from GCC. People say community college classes are easier then University classes. They're about the same, some are hard some are easy, just like grade school, just like high school, just like life. I don't really know where my life is headed right now, but I'm sure it's headed somewhere good. I try not to feel to high or too low. My boss last summer said I was very mellow. That's where I like to be, mellow. Sometimes I act like a goof off and very un-serious. You can't live life all tightened up all the time. So many people live so up-tight, I can't live like that. Not me. Hopefully I'll get a good job I finally focus on a career. I really like to run. I'm considering rooming with some runners after I graudate, depending on how things go. If I keep getting faster then why not.
