Assignment ONE

My name is Bobby Baldino and I am from Centerville Ohio studying Mechanical Engineering.  I love all sports and outdoor activities, especially baseball, tennis, climbing and snowboarding.  I am a transfer student from Sinclair community college in Dayton Ohio.  During my freshman year in college I took English 113 then transferred the credit as English 151 my sophomore year when I came to Ohio University.  My English teacher’s name was William Loudermilk, who was as cool as his name was.  He had a really interesting and entertaining way of getting the class to get the class involved in discussions or just about anything.  I am looking forward to this English class because I have never had one like it before.  I really like the idea of writing our own Wikipedia pages.  I have been to Wikipedia who knows how many times but never tried to write anything on the site, this could be pretty cool.  I also like how we are going to be using blogs too.  I always knew they existed but never knew how they worked or what people even write in blogs, but now we are about to find out.  My past experience with English classes usually turns out to be reading endless bland articles and summarizing, then spitting it right back out in MLA format.  That was more back in high school, but still that’s how I imagine English class.  This class appears to be different however.  I enjoy working with technology and I think this course design looks pretty cool.  I hope to have a better knowledge of blogging and writing by the end of this course as well as a legitimate Wikipedia page that doesn’t end up getting deleted by Wikipedia.
