MORGAN!!

Do you know Morgan Melton? I do! She's a pretty cool cat. She loves babysitting, working with kids, singing, KARATE, reading & ministry. Her inspiration is her karate instructor Jennifer Hancock. This is because she's a single mom & has many injuries nt still does Karate like a boss!Morgan also attends Linworth Alternative just like us! She loves the relaxed environment the dedicated teachers & the respect (when it happens) that takes place here at Linworth.  Here at Linworth Morgan is able to teach her own class on Karate. Morgan says that is her favorite class because she enjoys teaching it. But if she had to choose a class that she is taking it would have to be between Chemistry & Larry's video class. "I love any Larry class." She told me. Larry is her favorite teacher. She feels that she learns the most in his classes & that she still has fun with him. He even walked in when she said that!  "Linworth has gotten me more academically prepared for collage. I have to balance everything out. Linworth has also helped me step out of my comfort zone socially & I had to learn to balance the social aspect & academic aspect of going here. My suggestion is don't mess up your Freshman & Sophomore year. I remember Sophomore year doubling two math classes. I had eight classes. You don't want your credits to get all messed up because you have too much free time. Balance is key. But most of all relax & have fun. Also save up before the end of your junior year for walk about! Know what our doing and plan ahead." I asked her if she had any ideas for her walk about. "Many!" She told me. Her dream is to work/volunteer at St. Jude's Hospital. She has just now started saving up to go there but can't go for as long as she likes because of the cost. She wants to go into nursing when she goes to collage so it would be a great opportunity to see it live in action. She also loves how St. Jude's is kids & nursing. There's a program called Baby Cuddling where she would be able to be trained over the summer & work with premature babies and use touch therapy to help with the babies. Did you know Morgan baby sits for 18 different families! Some for a low cost of $5 a day because they are not able to afford it. It shows that she does it because she loves it not because she wants the money! She also has a call towards ministry. She believes it takes a big part in her life. Her dream is to become a mom! But she wants to go into nursing first to save up money. Then she might want to open up a Lutheran Orphanage. I think that's SUPER cool!! I think there should be more people like Morgan out there! 
So there's Morgan for you! Picture is comeing soon!
