Assignment 1a

1. What is your first name only (NOT last name)

2. Why are you taking this class and what do you hope to learn

3. How far do you live from SRJC main campus (go to google, maps to get the SPECIFIC answer; for this you type in your address and 1501 Mendocino Ave, Santa Rosa, CA to find the exact mileage. EXAMPLE: 2.6 miles from campus. The goal here is to use new tools available to us. You can always come back to edit this)

4. What do you think of when you think "California"? Does this differ from what non-Californians think and if so, how?

1. Colleen, hi!

2. I love the Humanities! I am an artist and a philosopher. I want to delve deeper in to the study of humanities and understand the origins of my beliefs better.

3. 3. 5 miles from campus

4. I think of a beautiful place not like another. California is my home and I feel that because I was born here and have traveled and lived out of the state, I know it is unique. California has a small chunk of almost every culture on the planet residing here! This makes it a very diverse place to live.

My family is from Michigan and they tend to think the usual sandy beaches and beautiful people stereotype. It is always funny when they visit and it's either raining or cold, They always like " I thought it was spouse to be hot here!" I don't think out of state people maybe realise how unique California is. I know some of my family feel it is a bit over whelming here.

5. I have created a blog before and a web page. I am not pro but I have tinkered around with it here and there.
