Journal Two from Marysa

Hello, my name is Marysa Barber. This is only my second semester of college at OSUM. I went to Marion Harding High School and graduated in 2017. I am also from Marion. .My favorite place to travel to is Panama City Beach, Florida or St. Petersburg, Florida. A fun fact about me is I have a pet skunk named Lola.

This picture is from my senior year prom.

A theme in The House On Mango Street that stood out to me the most was when she was talking about her name and how much she disliked it and wished she had a new name. I don't actually dislike my name or wish I had a new one, I just wish it was spelled normal like "Marissa" so that it is easier for people to pronounce and so that I don't always have to correct people.
