Hi! My name is Brianna and I'm from Sheridan, Arkansas. I have two sisters, divorced parents, and two amazing families. Some of my "hobbies" include taking naps, going for drives, reading historical fiction novels, daydreaming about moving to other states, walking dogs and petting cats at the humane society, and (you guessed it) binge-watching Netflix!
I am attending college at Henderson State University in Arkadelphia, Arkansas and I am majoring in Social Sciences of Education. Why teaching? Why social sciences? Well, I can tell you in complete honesty, it's not for the money. My dad actually groaned when, after changing my major for the fourth time, I told him I was going to be a teacher. Obviously teaching was never my first choice, but after running out of majors that interested me I finally gave in to the one that had always been at the back of my mind. I remember swearing on the day of my graduation that I would never take a step inside another high school, but here I am. Looking back, my quest for knowledge was the only thing getting me out of bed at 7am every day in school, and I have my teachers to thank for that. Now, in college, I realize that that thirst for learning doesn't die in high school; it is a part of me that I feel compelled to share with whatever future students I encounter in life.
Ever since middle school I've been a history buff. History is, to me, a never-ending story about how we've come to be. And I learn something new every day here at Henderson in all of my social science elective classes. All things that I cannot wait to pass on to future generations.
But, throughout the years, a new trend has caught my attention: Netflix. A lot of people love to critique my generation for having our heads in our phones 24/7, but Netflix is another beast entirely. It is my stress relief at the end of the day, it gives us sometimes fictional characters to fall in love with, character development, it even gives us a look into the lives of people outside of our immediate lives, it gives us perspectives that most will never achieve through books, and it can even teach us things that we never would have learned about in school. I like to thank my government teachers for helping me learn how this country runs, but I have to thank 'House of Cards' for giving me a whole new glimpse behind the curtain.
Overall, this blog will contain my personal opinions about all of the shows I fly through during my Netflix binges, currently I am watching 'House of Cards' season 4 and hope to start posting all sorts of opinions on shows I bulldoze through once I get the hang of my new blog. Hope you enjoy!
