Hi! My name is (huh?)...My name is (who?)...My name is [scratches] Slim Shady!

I spent way too long trying to think of a title for this introductory post, and that one Eminem song was literally all that came to mind. So...yea...there's that. 

I'm Carson and i'm a writing major. There's not a complex reason as to why I went this route. I just love working with words. It's as simple as that. 

My personal focus leans more towards creative writing. I am interested in this class because I want to broaden my writing ability. Also science is fucking awesome. 

I spent a VERY brief amount of time as a physics student. I wanted to be an astrophysicist and work specifically with identifying planetary bodies that are similar to Earth (with the eventual hope being to find evidence of life). I still read a ton of astronomy and astrophysics books and articles. 

Obviously, physics is pretty much my main area of interest within science writing. I am also really into most medical themed writing.

  1. You remind me that I was so busy being a smartass on my intro post that I forgot to put--in clear terms--what sort of science I'm interested in!

    Also, I just like that you said "Science is fucking awesome" on the very first post. Maybe I'm a bad influence, but I think you rock :-)Oh yeah, and that you're a star...my two main interests in science!

    (I've passed the point of "cheesy" now, I must put myself to bed before it gets any worse.)

    1. Yes! There is a tiny label at the bottom that designates which posts are which, but it is really hard to see! I think that I will start putting the class number in the titles so that it makes more sense.
