In English 101, I learned to expand my thought process into detailed descriptions of what I was writing about. Although I do not fancy writing papers, I feel that English 101 prepared me for college writing. The workload and dedication are two things that are essential to being successful in college-level English. I have many things to improve on, but I am looking forward to this semester.
Here's a little about me:
I'm from Wisconsin, more specifically a town of about 13,000 people named Chippewa Falls. Chippewa Falls is home to the Leinenkugel brewery, which has been brewing perfection for 5 generations ;) I also play football here at the U. I am the punter. However, my favorite sport is baseball. I am a huge Chicago Cubs fan. Being from Wisconsin, I am a die-hard Packer fan.
I don't really write in my free time. I certainly don't hate it, but it's just not a passion of mine. From this class, I am hoping to develop more of a hobby of writing, as well as improve my writing skills.
Cole,
ReplyDeleteI love Leinenkugel :)
I think the workload and the self-motivation that it takes to be a successful college student smacks every freshmen in the face. I'm glad you're taking it in stride and using it to push yourself to do your best! I don't think the workload of 210 will be quite as heavy as 101. It's still a composition class, but there's a larger focus on reading, which I've found takes much less effort than writing papers.
I hope you enjoy this semester!
