I have been a non-traditional student for three semesters now. I have not decided what I want to do "When I grow up". In the past I have thought of becoming a teacher to small children or students with special needs. Being in college, after all the years of being out of school, scares me at times. At this time I am a full time employee at HHS and for the most part, enjoy my work.
When asked about what I like to do with my spare time, I say I like to read. The writing has to be just of the top of my head. Writing assignments are a hard thing to get done. I think that this class might be able to change that for me.
Hi Kelly,
ReplyDeleteWelcome to 104. If you have taken English 100, than you can expect that this will be a much different experience.
While I cannot relate to your fear of college, since you have been out of school for some time, I can understand it. If it makes you feel better, being a nontraditional student affords you life experiences that your traditional peers may not have, which will allow you the opportunity to voice as such in class.
You mention that you like to read. Were you able to read anything over the winter break? Is there a particular author or genre you enjoy?

The ad that I have chosen proves that things have changed from the 1950's till now. Chase and Sanborn Coffee is the first coffee that claimes it was the first coffee to be packed and shipped in tins.
ReplyDeleteIn the 50's, your husband was the dominate person in the family. It shows that a woman who tries a new product might get into trouble with her husband for buying this packaged product instead of buying fresh beans. He has come home from the office, wearing his dress pants, shirt, tie aand suspenders. His anger is shown by the way he has her laying across his lap getting ready to spank her. she looks like the young housewife of those days. Wearing the below the knee length dress with the full slip and apron, that makes her look like she has been in the kichen cooking dinner, low heels. This couple looks to be in the early 20's, white, in the middle class.
