Letter of Introduction

My name is Lindsay, and I am from San Antonio, Texas. I am a Junior majoring in strategic communications and minoring in business. I decided to come to TCU because I had many friends who had gone here and loved it. I visited Fort Worth when I was in high school and fell in love with the city. If I were to be Chancellor of TCU I would create more parking for students, lower tuition, and allow sophomores to live off campus. I think that a good teacher is someone who is genuinely interested in the well-fare of his or her students and who is flexible and understanding. On the flip side, I think that a student needs to be responsible, mature, and keep up with his or her work on a consistent basis.
If I could have dinner with anyone, I would choose to dine with Jesus, Janis Joplin, and Andy Sandberg. These are all very different individuals who all spark my interest. Three important aspects about me are that I enjoy being around witty people with a good sense of humor, I procrastinate, and I am addicted to facebook. I hope to learn three things about everyone else, including: interests, opinions, and favorite pastimes of each individual.
I am taking this course as my last core credit and I hope to come out of it with a broader knowledge base of popular authors and works from the nineteenth century. I also think that this course will help me become more familiar and savvy when it comes to blogging.
I enjoy reading fantasy based novel outside of the classroom. The Harry Potter books are some of my favorites. I also prefer books that are light-hearted and humorous. I constantly read magazines and have a guilty pleasure for tabloids. My writings consist mostly of texting and e-mails outside of class. Although they are usually informal and between my friends or family, it drives me crazy when people utilize useless abbreviations or misuse grammar in texting. I think that my writing reflects my own personality and is unique.
I tried to put my own spin on this blog and personalize it in a well-rounded way as to capture my full personality and interests. I picked the blue, bubble background on my profile because I thought that it was the most conducive with what I like.
I have read, understand, and agree to the terms of the syllabus.
