I'm now finally back from my first day at Trident Tech! I'm taking two college courses every Saturday, and today was my first day. It went great and I really liked both of my teachers!!
I'm going to confess that I was a little bit worried about the Psychology class because I didn't know untill about 12:30 last night that I had to come to class prepared for a quiz for the first 2 chapters! I didn't realize I was receiving emails already from my professors through the college's email system. So my sweet daddy stayed up late with me and helped me take notes and when I got there Iwas familiar with all the stuff she was talking about because I had read the chapters! That was a relief! Thanks dad!
In my English class we will be writing a paper every week and reading it aloud.
Not untill after we finished writing the papers did we find out we had to read it out loud to the class.
There were only two guys and two girls that read theirs out loud. The rest refused.... really they did! . I really would have preferred not to read it to the class, but I didn't want to seem like I didn't care so I volunteered. It wasn't bad at all! I actually enjoyed getting to share my paper with the class, and also listening to the others.
I thought it'd be fun to also put my writing on my blog every week.
Today we were writing discriptive papers, and it could be about anything.
I picked Nova Scotia, Canada to describe. We went there 3 summers ago... wow, it doesn't seem like that long!!!
This is what I mustered up in the 10-20 minutes given to us:
Second Paradise Nova Scotia

Second Paradise Nova Scotia
The Bright blue Nova Scotian sky stretched out over the glistening bay and looked like it went on for eternity. The sound of the gulls, the sight of the magnificent beauty of the cool ocean breeze was captivating. Such detail went into its creation. The cool yellow sand hugged my feet as I marveled at foam ingulfing the shiny wet boulders which sat by the clear blue water.
In the many days that were spent in Nova Scotia, Canada I noticed that this land only became more and more alluring.
While paddle boating one could look any direction and see what could be a painting. If you were to look dead ahead your eyes would see a never ending body of glass water. One's mind could drift away with the limp sea grass which has somehow managed to stay afloat. Looking to your left your eyes would find a lonely island just waiting to be explored. To the right you would see the rocky shores and listen to the rocks being splashed by cold water and that is a sight that southerners don't see very often. Once your eyes have moved in all direction you can look behind the little paddle boat and see a white farm house ontop of a big green hill just over looking the Canadian shore. My trip was beautiful in so many ways. It is an experience I would love to have again.
This is Peggy's Cove. We all have hiked around on these rocks.
This is where we stayed .
It is called Second Paradise.

Oh, Karis, I want to go back too. Second Paradise was amazing. My favorite thing I think was celebrating being married to daddy for fifteen years while we were there away from everything with my whole fam....and kayaking and seeing a seals heads popping up from the water. They were so nosy.
Oh, yeah, and remember feeling like we were in a scene from Narnia when that little moustached man came by with the oddly large horse pulling the blocks on that sled? We all just stood there quietly and watched him go by...heehee
So pretty Karis, it made me want to go there!
I adore your writing skills. Keep writing. God bless!
wow wow wow for that paper. You honestly made me feel like I was there with you (which totally would be awesome) and that is most certinley something all writers need. Are the classes early? And bravo for your courage to read it out loud...I would have passed out.
