Getting to Know You
1.) My parents had me playing sports since I was five years old. I first started out playing soccer and hockey, but once I entered high school I started playing football, paintball and racing motocross. Most of my passion lies within racing motocross because my coach is my dad and he's the one who taught me to ride when I was five years old.
2.) When there is a little free time available at home I like to play with my three dogs. Sandy (Golden Retriever), Leo (Lab/Chow mix), and Teddy (English Bulldog).
3.) X
4.) When I write I typically just sit at the computer and allow the words to flow, but I recently started making short, brief outlines and they seem to make it easier for flow transitions between topics.
5.) Over the years I can see that writing isn't one of my strongest skills. I find it very difficult remembering all the grammar rules and applying them into my final essays. I'm very interested into seeing what college English has to offer and we'll how the semester turns out.
6.) The most recent books that I have read are; Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, One Who Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, and Fallen Angles.
7.) Everyone that knows me could tell you that i'm not a technology guy. Yes I have all the social media programs that other people created for me but I don't use them a lot.
8.) The most important lesson that I would like to learn would be how to express my true thoughts into a clearly demonstrated opinion.
9.) Hero's are the few people that give me inspiration and strive me to be like that person. To have pride, honor, and respect.
10.) X
11.) Rating myself as a writer I would go with a B or C. I can think of ideas about the discussed topic, but I have trouble applying all the grammar rules into my final essay. Having so many mistakes usually brings my grade down to a B.
