Intro Post

Hello! My name is Tiffany Payne. A freshman at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, I am a biology major with a potential minor in business. I am a member of various campus clubs, groups, and intramural sports, such as the Carolina Pre-Medical Association, RUF campus ministry, and intramural volleyball. I also enjoy volunteering my time in my hometown to help promote awareness of the childhood obesity epidemic.

Hello! I am Brittany Celeste’ from a wonderful place called Fayetteville, North Carolina. I am excited to say I am a sophomore at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill. Psychology is what I will be studying for the next three years here in Tar Heel country. Just a little general information about who I am as a person, tennis is my one true love and I enjoy watching tennis just as much as I do playing the game. My second love is the ocean; you can find me on Wrightsville Beach reading a good book almost every weekend.

Hi my name is Taylor Gwaltney and I am currently a freshman at UNC Chapel Hill. I was born and raised in North Carolina and I’m excited about the opportunities that being a tar heel brings. While I am only still a freshman, I plan to major in exercise and sports science in hopes that one day I will become an orthopedic physician’s assistant. I love beautiful weather and all that comes with it. In my spare time I enjoy watching and participating in almost every sport as well as spending time with my friends.

Hi, my is William Parker and I’m 19 years old and currently a student at the University of North Carolina. I grew up in North Carolina and moved to Florida at age 13 to pursue my tennis goals. During these years I was able to travel around the world and experience the different cultures. I graduated from Edison Academy in 2009. Following graduation I came to the University of North Carolina to continue my education and tennis. I am in my sophomore year and plan to graduate from the business school in 2013.

Hi, my name is Edie Chen and I’m a junior student majoring in Economics. I just transferred to UNC this fall, so this will be my first semester here. I have enjoyed the school so far but the campus is a little too big for me. I am an international student from China and I have been in the United States since 2008 fall. I hope I could learn more about English writing in this class since English is not my first language. My favorite activity is to play basketball. I also like to watch basketball games so I can’t wait to watch the Carolina games.

The authors of this blog generally speaking do not enjoy writing for school. We intend to make our blogs a little more interesting for our readers, unlike the articles our professors normally assign. We want our blog to be easy and simple to understand. We authors are going to take a straight forward approach with our blogs. For our readers, we will cut out all the scientific speech and try to make it understandable, so that a reader not familiar with the topic will not need a dictionary and will be able to grasp the concept quickly.
