Assignment 4- Abby Shadwick

My dad has always been a big fan of Kentucky's universities. Having gone to Morehead State, and raised in sleepy Wilmore, Kentucky, he's never lived anywhere else. Recently, the topic of college has come up more and more, and he always inserts his opinions. Usually about how great of a school Kentucky is. Go Cats! I believe he just wants his daughters to be close to him. That and he wouldn't know what to do with himself if we were gone. Time and time again, I have told my parents I want to go to college out of state. Even if it doesn't work out, I would know I attempted to fly. I've been as far as Hawaii, New York City, Sacramento and San Francisco, and the experiences and opportunities there are immeasurable. The universities are impeccable. I can't fathom a better college experience than one that is adventurous and enlightening. Family is the most important thing in the world, and I can't discount that. But sometime what my parents think is best for me, isn't truly what's best for me.
