CR: American Horror Story

Occasionally I don't watch scary or horror movies.  The only time I do watch a scary movie is if it's a classic franchise like Halloween, Scream, Nightmare on Elm Street, or Friday the 13th.  Movies involving paranormal activity or an exorcism always scares me because I believe in those things.  I never knew why American Horror Story is so talked about until now.  In my opinion, the show isn't scary at all and there's no jump scares.  What I like about the show is the story and how all the characters play a part in the major plot.  When you actually sit there and watch the show, the characters make you sink in and make you want to know whats going to happen next.  I might start watching the show for my own entertainment.  In class we had to see how can we analyze the episode "Anne Frank" using psychoanalysis.  We analyzed that some characters had repressed some information because the situation was too traumatic.  Overall I still think the show is good.    

Free Choice: Last Year

Only a few more days left in school and it kind of bothers me.  It bothers me because I'm going to miss the majority of the people and all the friends I made these last four years.  I still remember the first day of school in 9th grade.  I didn't want to come to Thurgood Marshall at first because all my friends went to different schools.  I gave it a try to see how much I would like the school.  I remember I showed up late to my first period class and didn't know anyone.  Everyone just looked at me like they seen a ghost.  Lunch period I was sitting next to Sean Scott, the first person I met in TMA and now we are close friends.  I went from not knowing anyone to knowing my whole grade.  There were some students who left TMA and I wished they would've stayed so everyone who came in TMA could all leave together.  These four years have been a roller coaster but I made the best out of it.  I got a chance to meet great people and friends that would last a life time.  I'm going to miss everyone single person, I would love for everyone to plan something out for every Spring Break so we never lose contact.  Whether your graduating or not, seniors will always be class of 2015 in my eyes because we struggled to get where we are.  Finally I wish to all my peers reading this that they have fun in college, remember who you are and find happiness in the future regardless of what you want to do in life.
