What is my biggest pet peeve? Why? What lengths would you go in order to avoid it?

Ever since i have worked at my job "Plants and Things" i have always been a organized neat person. When i worked there we would have to move statues, sheds, furniture, etc, and when we moved these items we would have to have everything in nice, neat, well balanced rows. Everything had to look good, for the customer and my boss. Since working there i now do this with everything in everyday life. For example when i go grocery shopping i would bring home all the food and i would make it well organized in my fridge. I would make sure everything is in plain view and that things are close to the front and in straight lines. I really cant avoid it because i get great satisfaction out of it when it looks all nice and tidy. I enjoy it when i do this because i like to be a neat, clean, tidy person.

"Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten". -B.F. Skinner

When i read this quote quite a few things pop into my head of what this really means. If you read and just think about it you can grasp of what message is trying to be sent. Education is always going to here, there are always someone, like a teacher, or something, like a book, that is going to be continuing the education or learning process. We can only keep education going, to keep remembering what we endured or learned. We forget what we have learned because people simply die and no longer obtain the information that they learned. We can only keep passing on the education we obtained to keep the ongoing process of learning.

What i expect from this semester, instructor, course, and myself.

When it comes to me and any type of english class i have never got along with it. So some of the things i expect from this class are lots of reading, writing, and papers. not really my strong points in life but i will be ablt to manage. From the semester i think i will do well by simply looking at the materials and stuff we will be covering. I hope my instructor is fair and will teach well enough for me to preform the tasks. I want to pull out a reasonable grade in this course so i am willing to try my hardest to get it. For myself i hope to achieve all of my goals and succeed. By looking at this course the only downfall i think it has is its papers, there are 3 major papers which happen to be 50% of my grade. The other 50% will be easy the accomplish so as long as i do some what well on the papers i think i will putt out the grade i am looking for.

About Me!

My name is Nicholas Myslicki and I am in my first year at MSU. I'm 19 years old and I want to study medicine after I get my biology degree here an MSU. I have always been involved in sports since I could walk, and even now I play lacrosse for MSU. I have tried every sport out there from baseball and basketball to track and soccer. Now I found the true sport i was meant to play, lacrosse! I grew up in the same house all my life, my family never moved at all. I lived in Ramsey Minnesota and atteneded all of the local schools. I graduated from Anoka High school in 2008 with a class size of around 700. I was also very involved with clubs in my school and I was very involved with my community, especially with my church. I would do numerous community service events through church, i also attened yearly mission trips in which we would go and help the less fortunate throughout the united states. We traveled to Maine, West Virginia, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, and Illinois. It overall was a experience of a lifetime to see so many parts of our nation. Now to go on and talk about my family, I have my parents and one sibling. I have only had one pet all my life and it is a cat named Kirby who happens to be 15 years old. My parents never would get me a dog, which i have always wanted for as long as i can remember. One thing i am very passionate about is my heritage, and my nationality. I am very proud to say that i am 75% Polish, and i love everything about it, especially the food and traditions. I have a wonderful girlfriend named Laurie who is a year younger than me. we have been happily dating for over 6 months now. She will be attending the U of M Twin Cities in the fall of 2009. Some people have found me weird when it comes to one of my personal hobbies. I collect coins, old and rare ones. I will go to a store and basically buy money for my collection. People never got why i would do such a thing but I understand the meaning behind it. For my most part you know the basics of me and what im made of.
