School LIfe


This is a picture of my biology Professor Baranowski. This picture was taken at school at the end of our lecture. Professor Baranowski was the only professor who was comfortable with me taking his picture and posting it for this class.
Professor Baranowski's class is a lot of fun and I am glad I got him for my teacher. It is hard to find a professor who has a love for their subject that they teach and who shows it to the class. Most professors teach the class and try not to make the class's as exciting for the students. Professor Baranowski does just that and more. I really enjoy his class and he will be one of the few professors I will miss when I leave PCCC and go to my next college.

One of the Worst Nights of my Life




This picture is of a stream on the side of Clinton Rd. The picture is very peaceful and the stream is rather relaxing to listen to. The road is very long and separated from many houses. Since this road is ten miles long it is very windy and if you are not familiar with the road you could possibly go off the road. Depending on the time of day you could possibly only see one car in several hours.
On December 23,2008 my life was altered in a way that I care not to ever repeat. My daughter was coming home from a friends house and two nights before we received our first snow storm of the year. My daughter was 17 and had been driving for nine months. She is a responsible person and was driving very cautious on her way home. It was about 5 pm, getting dark and as she approached a curve in the road her car chose not to respond in a appropriate way. She flipped her car and landed in the stream. She was under 2 feet of water and could not remember how she got there. Luckly someone was behind her and helped her and called the police. When I recieved that phone call ,my heart broke due to the fear I felt of the possiblity of losing one of my kids. Still till this day this turnmoil is repeated in my memory and I thank the heavens above by allowing my daughter to live and walk away with some bumps and bruises.

Skyland Manor

This picture is taken at the Skyland Manor in Ringwood N.J. . I took this picture for many reasons. The first is because of the many colors you see in the different trees in such a close location. The second is because when I saw this picture in my mind it reminded me of "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe", I really enjoyed reading these books when I was a child.
I also love the way this picture makes me feel, I am happy when I see the colors yet I am awaiting for the mystery of mythical creatures to come out and play. Many people were out enjoying the Autumn colors that we are so fortunate to see because of where we live. Autumn means a lot to me, one of my favorite holiday is in Autumn, Halloween. My family (mostly my husband and I) go all out crazy decorating the house inside and out. I decorate in traditional scary not cutesy Halloween. I am looking forward all ready for next year so I go buy more props and be more creative than this year.
