Letter of Introduction

Hello Stephanie,
Hopefully this letter helps you get to know me and help me stand among all
of your students. My full name is Ashley Dawn Hurst. I was named after a little girl who got mad at her mom for putting her hair in pigtails and cut them off at school. I come from a single parent family and never knew much of my father. My family is full of numerous crazy, obnoxious, outgoing, loving people; but that’s not how I want you to know me by.
Music is a large part of my life. Ever since I learned how to work a radio I’ve always been a metal head. Going to metal concerts are one of the biggest adrenalin rushes any metal head can have. In the middle of a huge crowd of, insanely brutal people; head banging, body surfing, and screaming fans gets the blood pumping. At the music festival, “Memphis in May,” in Tennessee, I saw one of my top five favorite bands, Korn. Memphis in May, is one of the biggest musical festival in the United States. Thousands of people from all over come to experience tons of live music from every genre. It was one of my most favorite pass times.
Ever since I was at the young age of fifteen I’ve been in love with Aaron Moll.
When I’m not working or at school you could find me with him. My life revolves around Aaron and I couldn’t be happier to be with him. He has changed my views on life all together. He has motivated me to start my life and get stuff on track; hopefully leading up to raising a family of our own later down the road. Without Aaron I would be completely lost and mortified.
College was a big step for me. I’ve never been really enthused about the thought of it. Now that I have a decent idea of what I would like to do for a career it’s made the thought not so far fetched. I would like to become a physician’s assistant. Over the course of this semester I would like to improve on my organization skills. Being more organized would help me in every aspect of my life. Also with in these short few months with in your class I would love to improve on my English skills such as; proper English use, spelling, and sentence structure.
Well Stephanie I hope this letter helped you get to know me just a little bit better then just another name on your roster. I look forward to the rest of this semester.

Sincerely,
Ashley Hurst

Week 2. Case Study. Temperament or character.

I can see a large relation between my writing process and the mood I'm in. My writing also tells you a lot about me just in the way I word things or phrase certain things. Normally if I'm not in a good mood my writing skills and process are thrown off. I'm not worried about planning things out, just more focused on getting done and going to smoke a cigarette. As longs as I stay in a pretty decent mood I'm able to wright, plan, draft, the whole works without stressing out or making it more complicated then it needs to be. If someone was to read my journal page by page, they would be able to pin point the type of mood I was in just by the way I literally write the words down. Also in journals your feelings play a big roll in what you write, because that's were you go to get out all our problems on paper so it seems like its not as big of a problem. Some people say that I talk a certain way and I've even had people say that I write the way that I talk. I've heard that from teachers to other classmates to even my boyfriend has said it. Personally I think know matter who you are your temperament and your character is going to play a part in your writing process. It will either make you a better writer or you will allow your mood to get in the way of your writing abilities.
