Letter of introduction

Hello,
My name is Robert King, my writing skills have never been that great and not very extensive. My freshmen year in high school I wrote a musical that was called a physco in the window, and I was the co star of it, It was a ten minute long play/musical that we preformed on the last day of school for some of the theater classes. I also wrote a fictional story freshmen year in college that was about a freshmen coming to college and facing alcoholism. Most of my papers in college have been either lab reports or research papers that have needed to be in MLA format.
Last semester was one of my busiest semesters in regards to reading, i was able to read four books, Abmler Warning by Robert Ludlum, The Broker by John Grisham, The Whole Truth by David Baldacci, and a book by the Dali Lama. My favorite book of all time has been Hour Game by David Baldacci, which is a book about a serial killer and an agent that is trying to stop him. Another book that I have really enjoyed was the Good Earth, I read this one in high school and still remember it very well.
This semester I plan on being able to blog a at least twice a week and getting an A in a literature class, which for me would be a miracle because I'm a hard science major. My major is biosystems engineering which I love. I love being able to apply engineering skills to biological systems and being able to quantitatively explain the results that will occur. I also feel that my major is going play a critical role in helping the world realize how we can engineer for sustainability and improve the well being of all man kind. But to be honest I really wouldn't mind just opening a micro brewery with a small restaurant connected to it and being a small business owner. This class is required for me to graduate in the spring but I choose it because i thought it would be interesting.

I woke up to smell the summer dew
Off i went to experience something new
When I arrived the circle was packed
With new students hauling stuff that's sacked
Classes were full with students absorbing
I awoke with my first hangover several morning
My sophomore year I spent at coastal
this is where i almost went postal
back I came to Clemson
and decided it was time for a reason
I met Jessica the best of gal
and now she is my favorite pal
At the end of this year my cap I will throw
but my life experiences will continue to grow

  1. I think it is pretty cool in how you wrote your own musical as a freshman in high school. My writing skills were not even close to good enough to be writing my own musical. It is also impressive that you wrote your own fictional story as a freshman in college about a student facing alcoholism. That is a very prominent issue with college freshman and it is interesting that you were able to write a whole story out of it. I hope we both can achieve our goal of attaining an A for this course and to be able to apply some of the information that we learn in this class later in life.
