FRANKENSTEIN

So, I began reading Frankenstein last week. It was suprisingly an interesting read. I am a science fiction lover at heart. Sure, I knew Frankenstein began this genre but, I never thought the book would be that interesting. I really like the way it is wrote. It begins in letters, which remind me of the "Dear America" books I loved as a child. It is then the account of Victor's life told by Walton. I thought this was a very good way to write a book. It added interest because you know Walton was writing it as he remembers Victor telling it. Therefore, there could be a bit of error!

Forever and ever and ever and ever and ever......like in the movie "Sandlot".

The world today is so insane. I am sitting in the library discussing my online english class with my best friend forever...Amanda Berry. She is also in the english class with me. So, we got way off subject. We started talking about the year 2013 and flying cars. Then, we jumped to Britney Spears and her british accent. My point for this blog is, you know you have been friends forever when you can talk about nothing, well, forever. This is crazy. Have you ever played the game where you say one word and the next person has to say the first thing that word makes them think about and you go back and forth? It can last forever. Much like conversations with a good friend. That is how you know you are truely friends with a person, when you can just keep talking. Forever and ever and ever and ever......

Nicole the RoCkStAr

It has been a long first week of class. But, I must say having no classes Monday was wonderful. I was going to try to get a lot accomplished early on this week. Well to say the least, that didn't happen. Maybe next week! I have got so much homework to get done not to mention started on. On the brightside, I get my guitar today!!! I cannot wait to learn how to play. I know it will take me a while to learn, knowing me....probably a long long while to learn. But, I have a lot more important things to do and learn right know. But, for some reason I just want to learn the guitar. I need to get motivated for school.

Looking to Tomorrow

My name is Nicole. I am currently a sophomore at the University of Central Oklahoma. I am majoring in Elementary Education. I hope to teach any grades 4th -8th. I just started back to school this week. I have 15 hours. I currently have 3 online classes and I have never had an online class before. I think it is a bit overwhelming to be honest with you. As if this wasn't stressful enough, I lost my job last month. I waited tables at a restaurant that burnt down. So, I just started a tutoring job today. It is not what I expected, but it is fun. I hope it works out. I hope this semester works out, too. But, we will just have to see what tommorow holds.
