The Birth of my Blogspot
Thursday, September 4, 2008 // 2:31 PM
So here we are, at my first Blogspot post. It has been a while since I last started up a blog (and actually commited to it), but hopefully this one will turn out at least halfway decent.
Grade 9 hit me like a ton of bricks and sadly, I now realize summer'08 is over... It was certainly one heck of a summer and I sincerely miss it a lot. With this new year, came new responsibility. A lot of things changed for me, in my family life, friends, academically and in other areas of my life. Moreover, we are getting lectures of how much Grade 9 matters and how it is the key to a successful future and blah blah blah. Honestly, my brain is still too sunburned to process all of this "change".
A little about me... Well I absolutely adore the subject English, and I love writing & reading. Snuggling up with a good book and getting lost in its pages is just amazing. Other pastimes I enjoy are shopping, Facebook, MSN, sleeping (oh, LOVE that one), talking on the phone and hanging out with friends. My favourite food? CHOCOLATE! Yum. Some of my favourite movies are Napolean Dynamite, Day After Tomorrow, Breakfast Club, Clueless, Mean Girls, X-Men, Titanic, Moulin Rouge, Thirteen, Harry Potter, Pirates of the Carribean, and more that I can't remember at the moment. Through my many years of reading, I have collected a list of my all time favourites that I do recommend you to read. I really can't quite understand why people nowadays don't read so much. True, there are a lot of distractions, but reading is reading and it can give you an experience that TV, music and other technology cannot. Some of the books I adore include His Dark Materials Trilogy by Philip Pullman, Awake & Dreaming by Kit Pearson, Harry Potter Series by JK Rowling, Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini, Bridge to Terabithia by Katherine Paterson, Guardians of Ga'Hoole by Kathryn Lasky and Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer.
So why choose Business & Computers class? Honestly, I couldn't understand my choice at first. I mean, I never quite envisioned myself dipping my toes in such a highly competitive and everchanging industry. However, I realized that my unconscious had made a choice for me when I chose business. I mean the purpose of highschool courses are to help you explore your options and why not explore this area of knowledge? Who knows? Maybe something good will come out of it. Nevertheless, I do look forward to a great year of incorporating business with technology.
Until next time,
Serena
