My first name is Alan; However, one
thing I did not say in class is that I go by my middle name, Michael. I have two siblings, an older brother and a
younger sister. My brother is a senior
here at Clemson studying biochemistry and my little sister is a sophomore in
high school. My family and I have moved
a total of three times. I was born in
Tennessee, then moved to Nebraska. Before elementary school I moved to Philadelphia where I lived
until I graduated from high school.
Right before I went to college my dad accepted a job in MUSC, so we
moved to Charleston. Moving away from my
friends was tough but Charleston is a fun city to live in. It is also nice to be near home while
attending Clemson. I am currently
majoring in Economics and would like to minor in finance as well.
One thing that my first few days of English class made me realize is that I truly am an author. By writing this blog right now, I am being an author. When I write on my friends Facebook wall to tell him happy birthday, I am being an author. I have done many different types of authoring such as persuasive essays, argumentative essays, compare and contrast essays, informative essays, as well as other types of authoring such as multimedia authoring. Back in high school, we tended to mainly stick to research papers for my science classes and for the literature courses I tended to write mainly compare and contrast and argumentative. When I am at home and not doing a homework assignment, I partake in multimedia authoring a lot. When I upload a video to Facebook or take a video of my self with the Snapchat app and write a caption, I being an author. It is true that everyone is an author.
Living in Chuck town must be so cool! I've heard they have a ton of tattoo shops down there so I'd really like to visit the city some time, even just to watch a few tattoos get done.
