- Learning doing what you enjoy is more important then the grades you get
- I am the middle child of three girls
- My older sister is becoming a doctor, she graduated college with a 3.98 and a 99% on her MCAT
- My little sister is incredibly smart and is looking at ivy league schools.
- Both my sisters and my parents are interested in science and math, while I love political science and reading (things they don’t enjoy)
- It was hard to feel recognized for my achievements because they were always achieving more.
- I started becoming a cliche and rebelling because I belived that was what was expected from me
- I went against my parents, wouldn’t come home/listen to them
- I didn’t enjoy it but I thought that was who I was
- I learned that my mom never wanted to study science, she loved history and English growing up but her controlling father said that was not a career.
- We were able to bond over that. I learned that if you love something and stop thinking about the the grade you get, you will excel
2. Something about mental illness
- talk about my town
- appearances are not what they seem
- meg and matt and recent
- should be treated like any illness
I am going to keep a similar passion blog but expand it. I went to fitness classes and wrote reviews, but I plan to expand this to a general health blog. My goals are to address all of the things that go into being healthy as a student and how to stay balanced.
Civic issues:
- political correctness (is it good or bad for society)
- climate change (the reality behind our situation and what we can realistically do to make a change, alternative forms of energy, relate this back to our current political situation and how Trump’s administration could effect this issue)
