Post 4 "Last day of Class"

     Sitting in class on the last day of school.  Anxious to get out. I look at the clock, 10 minutes to go.  I flick my pen on the desk to distract my brain before the bell rings. The tassels on the AC vent are blowing but it's hot and I'm about to burn up. Sweat rolling down my brow and back. I look at the clock again, hoping that time is almost up but only two minutes went by. I flop my head down in frustration.  I know! I will draw something to burn more time. I pull out a note pad that I rarely used and began drawing doodles of animals and characters that only I can recognize what they are. Ricky, the student next to me started to laugh at my drawings and make fun of them. I never liked Ricky or his Hawaiin shirts he always wore. Ricky continued to mock me and make fun of my doodles.  My blood was boiling, and I was mad. Right when I had enough of him the bell rang.  
     Growing up I always used to hunt and fish with my dad and grandad learning new things along the way. The older I got the more independent I became, going to high school and excelling in all sports was big for me and made me who I am today. Being dependent, in the story "A good man" the grandmother chose to travel to Florida with her family even after her cautious awareness of the misft killer escaped from prison. Following through with these actions lead to her and her family's death. Going with a gut feeling is always the best way and speaking out for what you think is right. 
                                                                            Post 2: How Literature is relevant to my future . After I graduate with a physical education degree my hope is to become a high school coach and high school teacher. Although I don't plan on teaching Literature it's always a possibility. Literature definitely has its benefits in anyone's future, as reading is the best exercise for the brain. I think that literature is relevant to my future in many ways. Literature can help someone to understand the world we live in and the people around us, different religions or races. Literature teaches students about life, different cultures and can help them better their writing skills. Hopefully I will be able to teach the younger generations things I've learned in this class.

Jack Mcleods intro

      Hi my name is Jack McLeod and this is my second year attending Middle Georgia state University. My goal is to get my sports management degree and continue to be involved in sports. I also plan to obtain my physical education degree. I'm hoping to gain as much as I can from this class to further help me in the future of teaching and coaching.
