   I would say my biggest challenge at college is managing my school work. I feel the work isn't necessarily  hard but its a lot. Keeping up with different classes at the same time can be overwhelming.  On a positive note I enjoy my freedom, I enjoy the relationships that I have built while being here. I think I'm growing as a person more than anything. I feel like I'm taking accountable for my own actions more than ever and I'm changing in the best way possible.  

      After watching the film documentary "My Kid Could Paint That ".  I felt upset with the parental pressure Marla (a 4 year old girl) had from her father. While watching the film I felt that she is given an extra amount of attention for a 4 year old. she is going to interviews and being put in an extremely uncomfortable position. I think the dad overwhelmed her a lot and towards the end of the film when she was tired of painting cause she had pressure whereas before it was just for enjoyment.
