I love to learn many things. I have had an attraction toward anything dealing with politics since I participated in the Trent Lott program for high school students. I like to learn about the things that affect me in my everyday life. Before coming to college, I thought that I liked Biology but that theory has been proven dead wrong. One of my favorite classes is Psychology, and I think that is so because it focuses on what makes us who we are. Psychology also makes me feel like I am in a medical class which excites me because I am a pre-med student (for now). It is a little odd to have politics and medicine as my two favorite subjects to learn, but I guess that’s what makes me who I am.
Overcoming Group Discussions
Today in our group discussions on The New York Times, I learned how other people maneuver the page and find articles that interested them. The other students that were in my group said that they decided on their topic mainly by what was appearing more frequently on the home page. My group also liked to write about things that dealt with them, including their religious beliefs or their home town.
