Katie Wise




             
My name is Katie Wise. My intended major here at Shippensburg University is Early Childhood Education with Special Education. I am very blessed to have my family. In the picture above includes my mother and my older brother Austin. Not pictured is my dad, younger brother, and my three dogs (Izzy, Max, and Zoey). Yes, I do include my dogs as family to me. In my spare time I love to play softball and go on hikes with my boyfriend and one of my dogs. Going off to college I was super excited. Mostly excited because I get to play softball here at Shippensburg University for 4 years. I am super blessed with everything in my life that I have. Some of my writing experiences include, in high school we had to write a research paper to graduate. My topic was about homelessness. Sad topic but a very needed subject to talk about. I thought that I did terrible. But, with a lot of hard work and dedication into this paper and in the end I received the grade I think I deserved. I received and A+ on this paper. I doubted myself. But, with a lot of hard work I did the best I could. I have many goals for myself.  I set the bar high for myself because I want to achieve a lot in my time. But, one goal that I would have for myself is, to give my 100% at whatever I am doing. To work hard and get what I deserve really. My next goal would be to tell people how I feel more often. Saying how you feel can really impact your life. People may have a better understanding of you if you tell them how you feel more often. My third goal for myself would have to be, say hi and get to know more people. I am not a shy person but sometimes I find myself not wanting to say hi to someone or just not wanting to interact. This has been a problem of mine for a while. I am a very out-going person but sometimes I can be reserved. I can achieve all of these goals easily. I can my all to everything, say how I feel more often and say hi and interact more. The conditions do not have to be in a certain way for me to obtain these goals. I just need to go out and do them really.

Issue Exploration

Advocacy means taking a stand for an issue and bringing light to this issue. What it means to be an advocate is you are going to do whatever you can to bring light to this topic and try for change. We should be paying attention to topics like "terrorist attacks" or  senate passing laws. Big issues bring a lot of attention to them. There was a terrorist attack in Manhattan yesterday. It is issues like this that we should be trying to stop. We need to have more control on things. But, yet again we cannot really know when something like this is going to happen. 1. Terrorist Attacks 2. Education 3. Sports 4. Health 5. tuition 6. abortion 7. sexual assault 8.

Writing Streatch for 9/13

"All of us immigrants knew that moving to America would be fraught with challenges, but none of us thought our names would be such an obstacle". - This quote is connecting with any immigrant that comes to a new country and feels as if they are out of place. Also, the significance is that they are pulling in that many people feel as if their name is an inconvenience so they are drawling an emotion grab on the readers. "I wanted to be a kid with a name that didn't draw so much attention, a name that didn't come with a built in inquisition as to when and why I had moved to America and how was it I spoke English without an accent and was I planning on going back and what did I think of America". - I think that this quote has significance in a way that the American people do ask questions when immigrant people do come to America and really just overwhelm the people.
