Introduction (Assignment 1)

Hi everyone,
My name is Raquel and I am a public relations major with a minor in marketing. I transferred from Skyline college, but this is now my second semester at San Jose state and I am truly enjoying my college experience. Last semester was successful I got the chance to live in the dorms, however it was a big surprise when I found out I was living in a triple. I am an only child and having to share a room with two other girls was something I was not looking forward to, but everything ended up working out I got along with all my roommates and we are all good friends. As far as my classes I was happy to finally be able to take some of my major courses, whereas I was use to taking my general educations requirements. I also got the opportunity to join PRSSA (Public Relations Student Society of America), which has been big help in helping decide what companies I would like to work for.
Outside of School I enjoy hanging out with my friends and family back at home in Daly City. I love going to San Francisco which is about 10 minutes away from where I live. On my spare time I like to read or go the movies. One of my favorite things to do is dance, I am not a professional dancer, but it’s my way of letting out any negative energy I had throughout the week or day. I am a football fan and ready for the Cardinals to win the Super bowl.
Now that school is back in session Jour 61 is one of my required classes that I have to take, but I’m excited to take this course to learn how to write for the media. I also want to work on my writing skills because I am not the strongest writer. I’m ready for the challenge this class is going to bring.
