Changing my major !


When I first started school my major was Early Childhood Education. I always wanted to be a first grade teacher like my mother since the age of 7. As I started exploring other major’s I became interested in Speech Pathology. As a child my brother always had speech classes so I want to help make a difference in people’s lives. This career will still give me an opportunity work inside of a school. A lot of people choose careers because of salary or the requirements it takes but I want to make a difference. I can’t wait until I can start helping children! 

First semester is almost over!


Well my first semester of college is almost over. When I first started college I was scared of what the outcome would be. Once I got adjusted to the whole college feel I started to enjoy it. When I was in high school English was my favorite subject. English 1101 was kind of a struggle for me since my writing skills were still on a high school level. I think the hardest part for me was maturing my vocabulary. Most of my word selections were very basic and needed much improvement. English 1101 has helped me get my college journey started. Now I’m ready for English 1102 next semester!

It feels like a Monday to me

Since yesterday was Labor Day and we didn't have school today feels like a Monday. I guess it hasn't officially hit me yet but it's just one step closer to me going back home on Thursday. It's going to feel akward going to all my classes today since I think it's Monday.

Whats going on with this weather???

So last night I tried to come back to MSC to my dorm but the weather was very nasty outside. Coming from Atlanta, we had a lot of rain, thunder as well as wind. I wanted to come back to Macon so I could be all ready for class in the morning. The weather messed my plans up and I had to stay an extra night at home. In a way I think it was for the best. On the news I saw a lot of accidents and traffic was backed up. By staying home an extra night at least I knew I was going to be safe. It was so beautiful Thursday and Friday when I came home but then the weather did a 360. Now it seems like winter is coming early since it's so cold outside today. I hope it starts to warm up again soon! In the end I had to wake up at 4 this morning so I could make it back to Macon on time for class. Due to all the traffic it took me a while but I’m glad I made it back safe and on time. Now I can’t wait to go back home on Thursday.

My first college essay is done!

So last week I was given my first college essay assignment. It still kind of felt like high school because of the whole MLA format thing but at least it wasn’t brand new to me. Even though my final draft wasn't due until today I finished it Thursday night so I could knock it out. I was very fortunate to have my parents there to help me with small edits for my paper. I worked really hard on my first college essay and I hope my professor will feel the same way. I’m excited to see my professor's feedback to my essay!

Labor Day Wekend

I had fun this past weekend for Labor Day. I went back home to Atlanta like I do every weekend. I enjoyed spending time with my family and my boyfriend. The first thing I did when I got back to Atlanta was go to my favorite restaurant. When I walked in the employee's already knew what I was going to order. As soon as I got home I walked through the door and I saw my mom and my dog sandy. There was no better feeling than knowing I was back at home with my family. I also went to the GA state VS. Clark Atlanta game. It was fun and I saw a lot of my old high school friends there. It made me sad knowing that I left a lot of my friends behind while I came here to Macon State College. Now I can't wait to go back home this weekend and see everyone again.

All About Brittany

Hello cyber world!
My name is Brittany and this is my first blog without photos. I'm currently a freshman at MSC and I'm majoring in Early Childhood education. I plan to become a first grade teacher. I was born in California but I moved to Atlanta when I was 10 years old. I love spending time with my family. I live at home with both of my parents, my younger brother and we have a dog named Sandy (cocker spaniel, 12 years old). Moving to Macon for college was a big adjustment for me but I'm taking it well. I'm a very shy person but my roommates have made me feel welcomed here at Macon State. I like to go home on the weekends though and spend time with my friends in the city or stay on campus at Georgia State. According to my parents my hobby's are shopping, texting and spending money. But I enjoy listening to music, shopping and electronics(apple products). My favorite color is pink but my car is red. I love tumblr and twitter too. I love English but I suck at math. I also enjoy watching reality shows for the fun of it. I'm not into sports but I love to swim. I look forward to continue blogging in the future!
