What was your favorite subject in school?

View all responses

I had two subjects I loved. English and Science. They were together, like conjoined twins.

I found the human body and how it worked fascinating. I took biology. Never got the chance to take chemistry. Anthropology was extremely interesting. Understanding more about someone’s culture helps explain how they behave and react.

For English classes, I enjoyed the writing assignments (shock and horror), doing reports and reading assignments. I leaned more into Creative Writing–obviously–Literature and General Writing.

I did well in science, which is why I’m still absorbed when I learn new scientific facts.

You can also tell I did well in English because my spelling, punctuation, verbiage and diction are absolutely impeccable. (Not quite, but I learned how to cite where my sources were.) In my last English course, I had the highest grade… which was a C.

… that was a hard teacher.

But I absolutely loved her.

I’m still mad I never got to take chemistry.
