Group A Prompt

During boot camp I learned about many different parts of writing that I've never thought of before. The way we wrote each paragraph and how they all ended up relating and fitting together seemed interesting. I am not a strong writer at all, I would say it's my least favorite part of school. I learned that if I break down the essay into smaller parts it will be easier to write and it will help give me structure to my writing. I also learned about the different terms I never knew the difference between them. Such as a primary and secondary source, where the primary source is one closest to the topic, and a secondary source is written about the topic or relates to the topic in some way. I learned a lot from the first two weeks and I think it really helped jump start me for writing this semester.

Introduction!

Hey everyone, my name's Chad Lindberg. Some people call me Chad, but most people have various nicknames for me, such as Chadders, Chadwik, Chadakins, and lots of others. I am from Redmond, WA and I have grown up there since I was 1 year old. I was born in Bellevue, WA and lived in Renton for the first year of my life. I grew up for the first 3 years of my life with a dog named Toshia. She was a black labrador retriever and was like my guardian angel and best friend. My parents said she practically never left my side. I have a field golden retriever now named Brittney Anne-Louise Lindberg. Notice her initials spell B-A-L-L, which is the only toy she will ever play with. I have played soccer all my life, on recreational teams or select teams throughout the years, and love playing on intramural teams here at WSU.
