Maya Angelou


Question 9: Things that I occupy my small mind with is I put music on low or turn the TV on, but I have to have the volume down low. I also have to have my laptop in front of me with a glass of water and a Subway sandwich. My biggest distraction is my mom and my sister. When I try to get something done they always talk my ear off. I also can’t have my phone out because all I will do is getting on Instagram or Twitter.

Question 10: Yes, I agree with the quote. The hardest thing for me about writing is actually what I want to write about. Also starting out my writing, I can never write a good introduction. The easiest thing about writing is once I get started I don’t have a problem with finishing it.

Question 4: I do think dreams reveal things about us that we may not realize is true. I can recount a dream that made me realize something about my life that I didn’t realize before. This dream I had when I was little I had a dream, in this dream I was an athletic trainer/physical therapist. Not only was I an ordinary athletic trainer/physical therapist I was the head one for Kansas University Athletics. In my dream I was having so much fun being able to help players get back on the court or field. Since that I dream I had realized that I wanted to be an athletic trainer/physical therapist when I grew up. So in a way my dream told me what I wanted to be once I graduate high school.

Question 5: In my opinion I think I could live this way to a certain point. I would be able to not talk when people say stuff in most cases, but sometimes you just have to say your mind if someone is making you really mad. I think I talk too little, a lot of the time I don’t speak my mind as much and that leads to me being a push over. I could learn more about what’s going on in the world around me if I listened more and spoke less. If I started speaking more I could grow as a person more because I would start sticking up for myself more and having more self-confidence when talking to other people.

  1. I think I could make it not talking much, too. I talk a lot for my job as a teacher, but outside of school I prefer to be quiet, and I think you're right that we can learn a lot if we sit back and observe others carefully--without the distraction of thinking about what we're going to say (or our phones!).
