Introductions ( Night Class)


Your first assignment is a simple one!  Introduce yourself to the class.  If you have already made an introduction from a previous post add current updates to what is happening in your life and copy it onto this blog posting.  To create your own post click on the blue comment link (there is a image of a pencil next to it) at the bottom of the page.  I am excited to get to know you better and help you achieve your goals! Here is an example from a past student.

Hi, my name is Anonymous. I am 20 years old, about to turn 21 on March 19th. I have gone to many schools including Apple Valley High School, Lakeville South High School, Apple Valley ALC, DCALS and now, Rahncliff. I am 4 and half credits from my diploma. I should have my diploma by the end of this session and I am SO EXCITED. I’m looking forward to furthering my education. I’m planning on going to school for nursing. I hope to work as a psych nurse in a hospital, but I would also enjoy moving around and working in plenty of different areas as well. I currently work at Verizon Wireless in Shakopee and I have worked there for just under a year. I don’t hate it, but sales is DEFINITELY not where I plan on staying.

    2. It's cool that you know how to draw. I sometimes use Photoshop for digital art as well! Where did you get the Attack on Titan jacket? I liked that show too. Doing winter activities like ski-skating sounds like fun!

  3. Hello, My name is Carlos Equihua. I was born in Pasadena, California. Shortly after I was born my family and I moved to Minnesota. I am 19 years old, turning 20 in March of next year. Once I graduate from ABE I plan to continue my education in law enforcement and pursue my dreams of becoming a peace officer for the state of Minnesota. I like to hangout with friends, play some soccer and spend time with my family at home. I am currently working but am trying to find a new job that fits around my schedule for school. Hopefully I can finish getting my diploma as soon as possible so I can reach my goals and make my parents proud.

    1. Hello Chris, did you know that you have the same name as our teacher? That's crazy isn't it ? Anyway I see that you work at a nursing home, that's cool because a few friends of mine also work at a nursing home, in Inver Grove Heights. I hope you finish high school quick so you can make a better life for you and your family, family means a lot and it sounds like you are on the same page.

  5. My name is Eddie. I am 19 and my birthday is 03/21. I volunteer at a place called Spark-Y (www.spark-y.org). Our goal is to educate and empower youth through sustainable agriculture systems. These systems include aquaponics, vermicomposting, growing oyster mushrooms, and cultivating spirulina and duckweed. Ask me about any of these if you're interesting. I love the outdoors and everything to do with them. I love fishing, hunting, boating, camping (especially in winter), mountain biking, water skiing. Anything really. I was born in Yipsilanty, Michigan but moved to MN when I was 5 and have lived here since. My goals are to either go into wildlife law enforcement, or more likely nowadays, sustainability. Whether that is in education, entrepenuership, or as a person who runs and builds new systems I don't know quite yet.

  9. Hi, my name is Selena. I am 20 years old. I have a daughter who is 18 months old and I'm now expecting a boy beginning of November so will have my hands tied soon here! I have a few credits to finish before getting my diploma, so i do plan to finish after this session. I work as a PCA and have been at my job for over 2 years now. Its not an exciting job but it does feel good to help clients who are in need of assistants. I do not have a set plan towards what i will be doing after i get my diploma but i sure would like to get it finished and out of the way.

  11. Hi, my name is Oscar. I grew up in Southern California and moved to Minnesota about 3 (almost 4) years ago. I am close to receiving my HS diploma and will most likely get it by the end of this semester and I plan on moving back to SoCal next year and further my education there. I have yet to decide to go to college or some trade school. Some things I enjoy doing are watching anime, playing video games, drawing and reading (book and manga). Although I am terrible at drawing I am slowly improving. I know how to play the oboe a bit but I am also interested in learning other musical instruments such as the cello, viola and piano which I plan to do sometime in the future. Traveling is something I've done a bit and plan to do more of as well.

    1. I know how to play the violin pretty well and very little I know how to play guitar . I took 4 years of it in high school. I think the cello sounds better though. String interments are the most beautiful sounding noise I've ever heard! I hope you do get to learn an interment. It's very relaxing playing and soothing when I play the violin, hope you get the same pleasure when you learn.

  12. Hello my fellow earthlings! My name is Nicole however, I prefer to be called Nikki. I am currently 23 years old. My birthday is July 30th and I was born at 4:20 pm. I just moved from Watertown SD. I lived there for about 10 years. I have a year and a half son, named Max Anthony-Danial Berg. I dropped out of high school three times, I only have 4 credits left to graduate, so yeah I'm pretty motivated to succeed this time. I currently am living in Apple Valley. I just moved here so I have no friends, so I cant say I hang out, party, go shopping with friends. I enjoy to roller derby, fish, go to the bars/club. I'm not sure where I'm gonna go to school at. However, I do know I wanna be a dental assistant. I do believe that is my calling. I've worked in serving and bartending in the past. I'm currently trying to get a job serving or bartender here while I go to school. Again I have no friends so a job would probably fix that. Well, that's what I got. BYE fellow earthlings!

  13. Hi classmates and Chris. My name is Nicole. I am 22 years old, and I guess my birthday often gets forgotten because it's November 25 witch always lands on thanksgiving week. (not too sound bitter or anything.) I was born in Orem Utah witch at the time mostly consisted of apple and apricot orchards, I discovered when I last visited that all of the orchards are gone and there is a new city in it's place.(weird) I am the second eldest in my family with 5 brothers and no sisters. I have a chronic illness known as Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia is a syndrome (P.O.T.S syndrome), witch prevented me from attending most of my senor year of high school. I am still sick but not as siver and i know how too keep it under control for the most part. I have nearly enough credits to graduate finally, yay! I am currently a cashier at Sam's club, but I have plans to go to school to become a computer graphics designer as soon as possible. I guess that covers some of the basics so see you in class.
