Blog Post #1 ENG 274

Hi my name is Rebecca and I am a full time student here at LaGuardia. I just turned 24 years old on September 12th. I was a student of this college in 2007 and I am now back to get my degree. I am studying Liberal Arts for right now, because I am still not 100% sure of what I am going to make my major. I am thinking about getting into either education or the health field. If I was to get into education I would need this class to graduate. Needing the class to graduate isn't the only reason that i entered this class though. I've always loved english and at one point I thought about becoming an english major or an english teacher. One of the real reasons I thought about this is because I had such an excellent english teacher a few years back who inspired me and showed me how great I could be at english. As I was scrolling down the list of all the english classes to enter this semester this one struck my eye. I enjoy writing about my life and real experiences that I've had. I have mostly written for my english classes but at home I've written journal entries and done facebook postings. I am very interested in true crime writings and mysteries. I find that they are very intruiging. I was glad to see that the professor had us reading excerpts from "Cold Blood" because i enjoy crimes and mysteries. I hate boaring books and writings that drag along so I am happy to see the professor has interesting things for us to read!
