Favorite Book

I do not read books frequently, but I did like Of Mice and Men when we read it in 10th grade. Also, I have read the Harry Potters and they are all good. My favorite was probably The Deathly Hallows.

Flip

It's amazing how portable and easy to use cameras have now become. How many cameras would we have for the class? If there are a good amount, we could break up into groups and create some sort of ad, commercial, or whatever. I'm not sure if you'd be willing to lend them out though...

Crystal Ball

I intend to graduate from college with maybe my masters or a 4 year degree, and seek a job in the engineering field. I hope to aquire a job in the biological field, since I very much enjoyed biology throughout high school. When I was young, I guess I dreamed of being a fighter jet pilot. I think that's what I had my mind set on.

The Economy

The economy today is not doing so well, but, as every other time this happened in history, it bounces back. Today's economy effects stockholders the most, I believe. With the stocks going down, people getting layed off, gas prices fluctuating, it makes it hard for some families to make a decent living. It sucks, but it should bounce back, so I am not that worried.

Technology

Technology plays a major role in our every day life. If it were not for computers, entertainment systems, cell phones, tv's, i'm not sure what some of the human population would end up doing. One thing I was thinking of yesterday, when discussing the english regents with some juniors, is the fact that we should be able to use laptops in school and on exams. I, personally, would be able to write, much neater, faster, and would probably encourage me to write better. This would help in taking notes also. But, it would've been great to have on the english regents, I would've worked way more efficiently and my hand would not be hurting after the first essay.

Hockey

I love to watch hockey. I wish I had started playing when i was younger, but I did not like it back then. I did not see it's potential. The hits, the dekes, the shots, everything about hockey gets my blood pumping everytime I see it on TV, or even better when I am at the game in person. It's great to see Henrik Lundquist get deked out by Derek Roy, or Patrick Kaleta line up a huge hit on someone. There is always a thrill and suspenseful feeling of watching hockey, and I can't get enough of it.
