As soon as I found out that Endicott college has an Odyssey team I was instantly intrigued and knew that that was something I was interested being a part of once enrolled. Odyssey has become a part of my life and allows me to voice my opinion about numerous different topics, and I wouldn't trade this opportunity for the world.
I mainly joined Odyssey because I wanted to voice my opinions about things I think are important and my experiences. I believe it has so far boosted my writing skills and prepared me more for college and the reading and writing class I will be taking my first semester. As I began to write articles I realized how challenging it can be coming up with weekly article ideas, but it is also more fun than I thought it would be and it brings out a creative side of me. Although my summer has been very busy, I enjoy the weekly deadline and I believe it keeps me productive and creative through the week. One of my favorite parts of the week is sitting down and relaxing, putting on some music, getting my creative juices flowing and writing out my weekly article.
Another thing I love about Odyssey is that for the most part you can write about whatever you desire. No matter what it is you can voice your opinion on it and connect with others who share the same opinions on these topics. With basically no restrictions you can get lost in your writing and express yourself talking about things that are important to you. You really find a lot out about a person and their character through their odyssey articles.
I have been reading and following Odyssey articles for years, and I am thrilled to finally be a part of this wonderful group of people and a writer for this website.
