Reflection: Weeks 1 & 2

The main thought that comes to mind about the first 2 weeks of class is WOOOW!! Anyone like to join me?!? The reason being is due to my complete lack of computer knowledge I currently possess, and all this talk of blogging and being computer savvy, Im not gonna lie, makes my tummy knot up a bit! But, that being said, it is an area out of my comfort zone and I am very much looking forward to learning the in's and out's of what it all entails. So, I apologize if my blog is a bit rough around the edges for the first little while. Seems this kind of stuff doesn't stick as easily as most things learned!!

ANYWHOO~ I have looked forward to this class each day in this first 2 weeks, for the reason previously noted, but also for the people in this Environmental Health class. I am looking forward to getting to know my classmates (that's YOU :) ) and enjoy this semester to come. This is my first class with Dr. V. as well, and she seems like a wonderful lady I am looking forward to having as a professor and as a refrence for future endeavers. I am passionate about making a difference, leading to my anticipation to get more into evironmental health issues. I am excited to continue to learn more about this whole Blogging concept, as well as each of those around me, all leading to the expansion of myself as a person :)
