Assignment 6- Katie Taylor

 I have a lot of interests. They come and go, but usually there's a period where I get really into something and then drop it a month or so later. Earlier this year I got really into architecture, but then lost interest not long after. I took up drawing for a while, which I'm not bad at, but I haven't found the motivation to continue. I suppose in this way I am like a nomad. A few things are permanent, however. I could talk about jazz and instrumental music for hours, and I could rant about everything that goes into marching band for a while, too. (I know, kinda embarrassing) Another common theme I take interest in is comedy TV shows. I'm watching Community right now, and I'm loving their brand of humor, especially the characters Shirley, Abed, and Pierce (although Pierce is kind of a terrible person). I like Glee because it's right on brand for my humor, and it also has just enough drama to draw me in without getting tired of the characters fighting. Plus, it's got fun musical numbers. I love gossip, so anything related to celebrity culture is fascinating to me. The whole concept of being a celebrity is fascinating to me. I could go on for hours about celebrities I like, and what I imagine it's like to be famous. I definitely do not want to leave this Earth if my name is not remembered and admired throughout history. My dream life would to become some sort of TV writer/ producer, and have a nice apartment in the East Village in New York, a cozy yet grand house in Beverly Hills, and a country house somewhere remote. I've thought about completely going off the grid before. I kind of like to wallow in my loneliness, so I think I could get along just fine on my own. Last summer, my family took a road trip throughout California, Arizona, Nevada, and Utah. I could never imagine going the rest of my life without seeing the beauty of places like Yosemite and Zion National Park again. Something inside me wants to explore and soak up as much life and fame as possible, and another part of me wants to live alone in the middle of nowhere on a ranch in Texas and live a romanticized country life. Well, I went off on a few tangents here, but I guess along with interests mentioned earlier, I really like to dream.

Assignment 26 - Grace Barnett

 One suggestion that I have for future classes is that you should maybe spend more time practicing each essay that is on the exam. I know re...
