Class Reflection Blog








This class helped me in so many ways. Last semester I had a weak English Professor. In fact, a total of seven classes were cancelled. I was intimidated with taking another English class because I felt that I was behind. Professor Candia changed the way I view and read literature. I always had a constant fear in reading something that I would not understand, but now I have learned how to focus on the written work and analyze it successfully. I now really enjoy reading literature on my own time. I never used to be a "reader" until I took this class and realized how many different styles, genres, and stories are out there. English 102 taught me how powerful words really can be. Through these stories and poems I learned about the world, people and history. In English 102 I truly believe that I have become a better writer due to the assigned papers and a better critical thinker due to the Blog assignments. I learned how to write and speak based on fact in an academic way, and use my own voice to interject my opinion to offer a new idea. I learned that one day us students will be the source. I am truly grateful that I took this class, as it was a confidence builder for me. Thank you, Professor. Candia!

Kick line Personal Post

For 5 years I was on Deer Park varsity kick-line's competitive team. My love for dance began when I was three years old and began to take classes. I went to Nationals in Orlando 4 times. We won every time that we went, and it was such a good feeling and confidence booster. Dance/ Kick-line are forms of expression and a big stress reliever.

Cosmetology Personal Post

As well as going to college, I attended beauty school. Hair styling fascinates me, and making people feel good about themselves makes me happy. I competed in  the Long Island guild hair competition for Senior fantasy and won second place. Styles are always changing as well as your clientele.There are so many opportunities with business and traveling.  Another benefit is setting your own schedule you can personaliz e it and make it as flexible as you need.
