The Good, The Bad and The School




The Good, The Bad and the School


                Every new semester of college brings new classes, new people to meet and even earlier times to wake up but thank goodness I have no early classes. This fall semester of 2014 has been great so far especially being able to play collegiate baseball again. I had to take some time off to work and help my family so I’m glad to be back and playing ball. I also have had pretty interesting classes like astronomy and political science which are both subjects I have been interested in for a long time. I have gotten some pretty close up pictures taken by yours truly of the moon and Saturn with its rings through a telescope, both were awe inspiring. I have always had passion for current events and politics in the United States so to learn the roots of liberalism and the foundation of the constitution, problems with factions in America and how our rights are being infringed upon with the intrusion to our privacy has been exciting. I moved from Las Vegas to Oxnard which means I’m at the beach all the time because growing up in the hot desert was just to dry. I have great roommates who are all the baseball team which always makes it a great time and feeling of being on my own with a job working at weddings has been a growing experience. But I am still learning the town and most nights I just stay at home and catch up on Netflix shows and write essays.  Oxnard College has been great and a lot better than my last junior college except for the parking permits because that’s just a pain.  I wouldn't change anything about this year and I am hoping for good grades and good times to ensue.

  2. I too have an extremely deep passion for astronomy (and almost all other science topics), and the fact that you had nothing negative to say about the class really has me considering what my future class options could be! Other than that, it's great that you;re having a good experience at Oxnard College, and welcome to this city.

  3. Ahhh netflix! A college students substitution for a 'friend' when you're stuck at home doing homework. On a side note Oxnard has fairly nice weather, keep exploring!

  4. Astronomy is such a fun class! I remember taking that my first year of college. I'm glad that your classes are going well for you. I'm also new here in Oxnard so I'm glad I'm not the only person still trying to figure out this town. Let me know if you discover anything interesting!
