Question c

A moment that was breath taking and I could not take a picture of was when i saw the meteor shower during the summer. There was so many but yet they were so small and far away it was hard to take a picture. It really was a moment that Was uncaptureble! I tried however to take some pictures of them but they came out terrible. There are moments like this throughout our life's and we need to take mental pictures of them because they are great experience that we need to remember in someway, it's just not through a physical picture, but it is something you will keep with you forever!

Character study

From today untill college, I believe I will have learned many lessons and be ready for the next chapter in my life. I am a pretty independent learner, but occasionally like learning in groups. School does not really appeal to something I enjoy, but I know I need to do it so I can enjoy my Job for the rest of my life. I think I will flourish in a college campus rather than in high school. I will be super independent, and hopefully won't be as distracted as I am now. I can't wait to live with my friends and just be in a different type of environment. From here tell college I am also trying to start to grow and develop my study habits, I know that when it get to college if I use my old habits it won't work! The college I plan to attend is long beach or

cal poly! My degree is patroleum engineering which is going to be very hard, but I think I am up for the challenge!
