Very First Blog!

Hello, this is my very first blog that I am ever posting. I think it's really neat that my Professor is asking us to do this. This will help me learn about other's ideas and thoughts and will give a chance for other's to see my ideas too :)
My name is Khouloud, and I am currently attending our local college. This is my very first year, third quarter. I like it very much, because of all the fun classes I get to decide to take, and all of the free time I get for myself! My career aspirations are hopefully to major in Political Science, to be a lawyer, or maybe even major in International Business. I really like the business aspect of everything, so that is why I would like to choose to be one of those. In English 1A, I hope to become a better writer. I really have enjoyed these past 2 quarters of English and feel that I am only getting better. I hope to be able to write more freely, especially because my Professor is asking us to write about really interesting topics, rather than other boring ones.

Our first articles that we read about were about how much of the items that we have here in America , are actually produced in other countries. We got to learn about many items are created elsewhere where they are people who are typically poor, seemingly uneducated as well as the way they work in harsh conditions. It shows how us in America don't realize that our clothes are actually produced elsewhere, and that is so we can get them cheap. I read about one lady who makes about 250.00 a month in U.S dollars. That would DEFINITELY not be enough to live with in the area we live in yet, we take things for granted. The companies are typically based in other countries, America, Canada etc.

I think learning about these was really eye-opening . It seems to me like we have to be more thankful and much more appreciative of what we have .
