mini-Autobiography

Hello there,
My name is Eranell, an 18 year old gal from the land called South Korea. Despite my ethnic origin, I have been living in the state of Maryland for more than 70% of my life. I graduated last summer from Old Mill Senior High, which by the way only “sounds” as though it’s surrounded by farmland. Currently, I am a “Letters&Science” freshman who is trying to major in Chemistry to prep up for the requirements to get into the UMD-School of Pharmacy. But that is all in the long run and my immediate goal for now is to try and pass through college with a smile. I am hoping that the experiences as a student of the University of Maryland will become many of the most memorable moments in my life.
To answer what kind of writer that I am didn’t seem too difficult at first but the more I thought about it I began to lose my answer. At first I thought I was a pretty good writer however I couldn’t define what “pretty good” meant exactly (still unsure of an exact definite for that). So, instead of answering “what kind of writer I am” I’ve decided to answer how I feel towards the subject of writing itself. And I can confidently say that writing is not my passion, not even close. This is especially true when the writing is a scheduled task. Not going to lie though, I do like writing little notes, letters and/or messages when I get a chance to talk with certain friends in order to keep in contact with them but other than that it’s a no-go. All in all, I find it difficult to write words out when it must follow a certain subject and can’t slip out of the outline pre-drawn which doesn’t mean that I hate “writing” altogether but just saying that I prefer it when it is a more personal and free type of writing. Hopefully this class will help me to like all types of writings and teach me to make a connection with the words that get written out even if they’re for an college course essay.
