Introduction


Hi,
My name is Alexandria Hinderholtz. Just in case you haven’t noticed my name is a bit longer than most so I go by Ali which is based off the karate kid’s girlfriend. My major at the moment is Interior design, but next year I am moving to Arizona to go to ASU which explains why my background has cactus's. I plan on double majoring in architecture and interior design which isn’t a very English based subject which most of you could have probably guessed.
Math is one of my favorite subjects which might lead some to believe that English is not. Those who think that are absolutely… correct. Reading is not my strong point because big words scare me. Also, I think it’s a little too easy to get distracted while reading. Most of us have probably experienced when you start thinking about something else and your eyes keep moving down the page. Well that happens to me a lot so I just prefer not to read. Which might indicate that I have ADHD… So, I stopped in the middle of this sentence to look up the symptoms of it, which also indicates that I might have it. Instead of finding symptoms I took a quiz which confirmed my assumption, but because it’s online it doesn’t count as a real but oh well. 
                Anyway, because of my lack of reading ability my writing isn’t exactly the best. I tend to talk a lot, except in front of a group of people, so my writing is more like how I talk than how I probably should write. I also spell how words sound which in the English language doesn’t always work out that well. I guess that lesson in grade school should be edited a bit. Good thing we have spell check and grammar check. Hopefully I can work on improving a few of these issues in ENG 101, but only time will tell.
