Who Am I?

Hi everyone!  My name is Rachael Kocher.  I am a freshman at Shippensburg University.  My major as of right now is business administration (undecided), so I am searching to see what parts of the business industry I like and am willing to work in for the rest of my life.  Ever since I was a kid I always took an interest in money.  Don't get me wrong, I'm definitely not greedy, cheap, or a gold digger, but I am a regular teenager trying to find a passion in life.  Being the host of the TV show "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" use to be my dream job.  As it turns out, at age 14 I began working at the local Burger King in my hometown of Quakertown and have been working there ever since.  In the future I hope to go into finance and learn about investing in the stock market, because it can be risky and adventurous which I am all about. 

I am involved in the Adventure Club here at school and can't wait to go skydiving sometime. I have a bucket list of 300 things I plan to do including traveling the world to doing random things like climbing a mountain, and learning something new each day.  I try to live each day to the fullest and remind myself to be happy and appreciative for everything I have, because positivity conquers all.  In my opinion, society and the media puts too much pressure on perfection which is unachievable causing people to constantly think negatively.  Time is of the essence so don't waste it.

I had Professor Mortimore for WIFYS last semester and I thought she would teach Introduction to Literature just as well.  The last book I read was Feed.  I am interested in all sorts of popular culture including music, movies, and television.  My favorite music artists include Taylor Swift, John Mayer, and Nelly.  My favorite movies include The Hangover, Twilight, and Harry Potter.  My past experiences reading literature take place mostly in magazine sources.  Literature, in my opinion, is anything that one reads.
