Hey everyone!
My name is Jason, and I was born in Seoul, South Korea. I moved to the States when I was about, I'd say about 6 months old. I was raised here in Maryland and I graduated from Richard Montgomery High School. When I was applying for colleges, I had wanted to go to a school where it had an excellent journalism program. After being accepted to College Park, not only because it was a school that was near my home, I knew that I wanted to come to this school because I thought that I would have the best opportunity to learn what it takes to become a journalist. However, after a semester of my freshman year, I thought about my future more and decided that I wanted to switch majors and look towards the business path. I realized that journalism was simply a hobby for me. I have chosen to go into Operations Management (Business) as well as Air Force ROTC this semester.
I've done many types of writing throughout my life, including blogging (I remember when Xanga used to be popular). Throughout my school years, I have done papers for argumentative essays, literary analysis, narrative essays, research papers, and also film analysis. For the most part, I like writing, but not particularly the extensive and complex essays. However, I give my best effort in each essay I face. I may not be the best at writing, but I hope that through this class, I can learn the many techniques to write an amazing paper.
Because I usually do this at the end of most of my blogs, I'll continue to do this here as well. I'll leave a little quote for everyone that sums up my day.
