Books, books and more books…this is how I felt when I kept receiving
books for my world literature class. Reading is something that I was never
overly involved in, unless it dealt with dog training or dogs. With age I have
become more accepting of books that didn’t involve dogs; they actually had to
deal with my classes and things I could relate too. I grew up in the little town of Pulaski,
Wisconsin which for some reason still managed to have a huge high school for
such a small town. This only meant that in order to be with your friends and
see people you had to drive about a half hour to see them.
Since we lived in a
small town my family loved to travel. We have traveled all around the United
States and we make sure we have a family trip at least once a year. As I started
traveling I have always been inspired by my family to do what I want in life. My
uncle, who moved to California and became a police officer, is now a famous
television writer. My mom, who lives in Green Bay, became a teacher. While my
aunt opened her own old time photo shop down in Missouri also followed her
dreams. This leads me to where I am today, Silver Lake College in Manitowoc,
Wisconsin, dual majoring in Special Education and Elementary Education. In this
blog you will be able to follow some of my own travels through school, starting
with my world literature class.
