First Class Blog

HI EVERYONE

Im Rose Taylor and this is my first time Blogging. Im taking Media & Society course in college and  our class is starting our own blogs. Any feedback would be helpful. I should probably tell you a bit about myself.

Im 23 and I have Spina Bifida, Myelomeningocele is the form worst form and I got it. I have been in a wheelchair since I was 4 years old. I have had 16 surgeries so far and 10 of them were brain surgeries. Im a Christian and love volunteering in my church, I sometimes get to run our camera that we use to stream live. I also volunteer in a live theater downtown. I love theater, I love every job I get to do. Acting is my passion, but I'm blessed that I get to work behind the scenes. Theater arts has been my passion since I was little. I also have played my cello since I was 3, but I haven't found a passion for it anymore. Its more of a hobby to me now. I used to play in orchestras. I am at LBCC doing my Communications degree. I like doing speeches and Im very comfortable in front of large groups. We have 2 cats,  Spooky and Marmalade, both females. My first cat Keiko lived to be 21. I love all animals, even snakes and bugs. My favorite Video game is Destiny: Taken king.

After watching Second Skin, I felt like I just went for a marathon. Everyone explaining how much they play, what character they play and why they play so much, made my brain scramble and I felt stressed. I wanted to go to those gamers and tell them they are too addicted and they needed a long break, so that they would be wither families and real long time friends. I love video games for my own reasons but I will never choose to do video games over working and being with my family. God is my First Priority. Without him I wouldn't be here, or have such an amazing job and family.

By the way, I mentioned what disability I have, Im not embarrassed by it. If anyone has questions, please ask. I will answer what I can.

Thanks for reading,
Rose <3
