Assignment 1

          My name is Clifton Grady. I would not consider myself a person excited by the study of the English language-in fact, I would say English studies in school are close second behind History on my list of least favorite subjects- however, I am a person fascinated with the art of expressing oneself. Despite this, ironic as it may seem, I would consider myself both writer and as a person who loves reading the writing of others. One might then ask why it is that I don’t enjoy English classes, and the answer is a simple one: I despise conformity and doing things the so-called right way. I am very much an abstract thinker. I am fascinated by technology, mathematics, and music; all things which revolve around innovation. I am definitely a nerd, and I have no shame in that. A successful student who finds himself immersed in textbooks concerning physics, computer science, economics, and calculus, a trumpet playing band geek, an avid video game player, and perhaps most important of all, a self-proclaimed connoisseur of tea. I believe that is a sufficient surface-level summary of myself, but I hope to get to know you much better as the year progresses.

      And for my favorite website, to stray away from what I am assuming will be typical responses such as YouTube or Twitter, this is Brilliant, a website with lots of cool questions and quizzes that really make you think. https://brilliant.org/
