PSA – Hazards of Smoking
Gary won the lottery and won $4,000. Unfortunately, he smoked one pack of cigarettes a day. In a year, this spent his winnings and another $562.50. In addition to the heart and lung problems, he wasted $4,562.50 on cigarettes. Do you have the money? Instead of smoking, try jogging, singing, swimming, dancing, writing, or other things that you can’t do with asthma or other heart an lung problems. Don’t smoke. It’s not a joke.
Miguel Johnson
I am the youngest of 4 kids in my family. We’re not your average family because I don’t think we fight much. We we’re all taught to love one another and love everyone we come across. When I was younger this seemed so strange and illogical.At the the time it seemed like a rule I wouldn’t see myself following. I thought that if someone hit you, you hit them harder. Of course I was only 4, so I definitely grew of of it. My household income is above the regular standard, so I never really had to work for what I wanted. I’d just ask and I’d receive. I’m always saying how I grow tired of it sometimes and people just look at me with the strangest glare. They say how they would switch with me in a heartbeat, I would probably let them to be honest. Don’t get me wrong, I love the family I was born into, but I’d like to know what it’s like to work and actually earn something for a change.

Allie Schneider
Hi, I’m Allison Schneider but I go by Allie
I am a senior at Vassar and I am originally from a town outside of Washington, DC called Mclean, Virginia. Here is a link to a map of the Vassar campus, where I live and study. At Vassar, I am studying cognitive science and education. Cognitive science may sound complicated but it is really just the study of the mind through many different subjects: psychology, computer science, philosophy and more! In addition to studying cognitive science, I am interested in education. I love working with kids and have been interested in teaching for a long time. I like listening to music, cooking, baking (especially cupcakes!), doing arts and crafts, and spending time with my friends and family. My friends and I like to watch TV and movies, play games and have lots of adventures together. I am excited for a great semester!
Here is a link to my digital autobiography.
