Introduction


I promised myself that I would never blog in my whole life, I think if people really want to know about you, they should talk to you, not read some stupid stuff that you write on the internet. But since we have to, for this class, I will just suck it up and do it just this one time so I don't fail the class and have to retake it.

My name is Kayti Hale, I grew up in the Schaumburg area. In high school I played volleyball my freshman year and then was a manager for the boys’ volleyball team for all 4 years other than that I never really did many other extracurricular activities. I worked at Woodfield Mall from the middle of my senior year of high school, until I left to come here in August.  I have wanted to go to ISU my whole life, even though the rest of my family went to U of I. Now that I am here, I am majoring in accounting. For a while I wanted to minor in psychology, but those are very different, and I thought I should just stick to the one thing that I enjoy the most, instead of taking a bunch of classes to minor in something that I probably would never use.

Writing is always one of the classes that I dread the most in school. I am not confident in my writing at all. I do not enjoy writing at all, and I am very bad at keeping my ideas straight and writing out full thoughts. My writing is usually very choppy (which I am sure you could tell before you got to this point ). I do not consider myself very creative, and that is why I enjoy math. No matter what, there is always an answer, and you are always either right or wrong. Writing has always made me very uncomfortable, and I have struggled through every writing class I have ever been in. I doubt this one will be any different, but I guess I will just have to wait and see and push through it to just get it over with.

See you all in class  (P.s I am not always negative, I am just worried about this class. In fact I almost dropped it so I could just take it over the summer at a community college instead….just to procrastinate)

  1. You should give yourself more credit, you are not that bad of a writer.

  2. From what I can see, your writing is pretty good. I know it is hard to take classes that are out of your area of interest, but I hope that you will be able to find something positive from this experience. While I am sorry that you had to break a promise to yourself about blogging, just think how much worse our free writes could have been? Some teachers require the use of blackboard (which I despise!) and you would have to type into boring response boxes every week. At least here you can design your own space and during some weeks you can write about anything you want to write about. :/
