My name is Roxanna Mendoza, I'm from Dallas Texas, and I am very happy to be taking this course with all of you.
I am completely new to the north and this university. Most of my friends and classmates stayed in Texas and are going to local universities. Many of them have asked me why I decided to leave, and why did I want to go so far. Truth be told, I didn't really plan on coming here...in the beginning.
I went to a charter school for middle and high school. There, the teachers really pushed the students, and prepared us for college. The school was so confident in us that they encouraged us to apply to as many universities as we wanted- they would pay for everything! SO, being the overachiever that I am, I applied to 17 universities. Out of all the universities that accepted me, Notre Dame was the highest ranking and the one that offered me the most money, so, here I am!
I am a Business Administration major, with a possible Japaneses minor, international business certificate, and marketing background. My dream is to work for Pixar- I want to work as a manager or chief and work my way up to the position of' Executive Creative Officer'. I have always had a passion for story telling; my obsessions include animated movies, cartoons, anime, and manga. From there, my love for Japan and it's culture was born, and my need to learn the language has brought me here! I also really like children, as explained by my English/European history teacher, I am a '35 year old leader in a young adult's body with the joy and imagination of a 5 year old'.
I truly believe that everyone has an inner child inside, so I have decided to use this blog space no only for our course, but also to share some amazing pictures and giffs to entertain you guys and hopefully brighten your day! Remember, life is what you make of it, so please try to enjoy yourselves!
Till next time!
So how as first week of classes been, please tell me you're not as done as this guy....
