Tropical's Dreams, Stories, and sometimes Poems :3
Hi I'm Corrina! *A.k.a Tropical Dreams* This is where I post my every life. Things like Stories, Poems, Feelings and so on. Comment if you like ^.^
~Bakersfield College~
Well it's been about a month since I've been in college, and I love it!
To remind everyone, I have English, History and Art.

My English class is a beginning class, which by the was the only class that wasn't full so I had no option but to choose it. Which doesn't bother me whatsoever since I love English. It's basically just review and reminders of the English basics. My Professor is named Andy Lamers; addressed as Professor Lamers. He's real strict about English, but he's hilarious. His lectures aren't monotonous, he explains things in a simple manner, and he uses sarcasm which makes him hilarious. He is a bit arrogant, though. But overall, I love his class and I may just take his class again next semester.

My History class is also a beginning History class. I discovered that I love History this year. I've learn about the Harappan Civilization in India, and the Zhang Heng Dynasty in China. I really enjoy reading out of the text book and learning about things of the past. It's more lecture in that class than anything else. It's Tuesdays at six in the evening to nine at night, and since I have English from one to three on the same day, I feel tired by the time I get to History. But I force myself to stay awake because I need to take the notes. My Professor goes by Professor Stratton. He's a happy teacher, he's real down to earth. He tells it like it is but doesn't do it in a depressed tone. He makes jokes A LOT, 50 percent are lame and the other 50 percent are funny. So he's not that bad, just talks too much!

My Art class is the best class of all! I love this class so much I wish I can spend everyday in there, seriously. It's a basic 2D Design because everyone took all the good ones! So far, we've done line design which I made two circles with squares in front of them and lines coming through. It resembles the sun and the moon shining through windows. We also did a pattern, and mine actually came out really good, I did individual squares that looked like envelopes, some with a Mickey Mouse head and some with King Crowns. Colored it gray and black.
The best thing about Art is that you get to present it to the class and they can comment on it. I was real nervous my first time, but by my second I did well. There is a guy who sits next to me on my left and Maxine sits on my right. I literally make them laugh the whole period which makes me happy and makes me enjoy the class that much more. Our Professor goes by Professor Rodenhauser. She is a great teacher. She is real nice and relaxed. She doesn't do too many lectures, just to tell us the homework. Her critics on the students' art is great. She's very articulate.

Via Arte is next weekend and I'm going to be apart of it! I thought I wasn't going to be able to do it this year because I didn't have time to request a space, but then a student announced to the class that they were doing Via Arte and needed help. I was the only volunteer in my class. It's crazy! When I joined B.C. this semester, they started the FIRST ever Art Club at B.C. I think that's awesome!
