Hey! My name is Amanda Mitchell and I am a freshman from outside of Philadelphia. Although the first thing I learned on campus is that many many people are from ‘outside of Philly,’ so if Blue Bell means anything to you, that is actually where I am from. I am undecided within the School of Communications and when I came for New Student Orientation I had the hard choice of deciding between SC200 and Asian Art and Architecture. After quick advising I knew that SC200 was very clearly the class for me.
I will never be a science major because I am a strong believer in doing what makes you happy. Science for that matter does not make me happy. Why be in constant continuous search for answers to questions when instead you can know solid answers. With that solidification I feel comes confidence. I never had confidence in my labs and school, or success for that matter. Yet in English and TV production classes I could be myself, while doing what I enjoyed.
I had the privileged of MCing my schools homecoming prep rally this year, which actually got me out of a full period of Physic, making the experience even better. The picture exemplifies a lot of who I am with school spirit, a mic in hand, and a smile!
This link is a great video I found last night while Facebook stalking!
