From: Atlanta, GA
Junior at TCU
Interests: painting, drawing, anything artsy, history
Major: History/ Art History
Minor: Criminal Justice, possibly French as well

I took this course at TCU simply because it is required, but not reluctantly, as I wanted to improve my writing skills. I plan to improve my writing style, skills, and argumentative points as I complete this course this year. I need to become a better writer for all the essays I have to write for my major. I write alot in and out of the classroom- surprisingly, I write letters alot, emails, text messages, emails, and write alot of "to do" lists and on artwork. 

My interest in politics is great, but not enough to be a political science major. Mainly national and international politics are the most interesting to me, and politics on the state level and below bore me.

After reading our book Everything's an Argument, I can somewhat see how this blog is making an argument. I am arguing the color scheme I picked, the facts are indeed facts are about myself, and the reasons I chose to take this course. Its more informative than anything else, but will turn to exploring as we go on in the course.
