Hey everyone, my name is Emily Shouse. I graduated from Danville High School in 2012, and currently still live in Danville. I haven't fully decided on what I want to major in, but I narrowed it down between Photography or Graphic Design. I plan on going to DACC for this year, and hopefully after that I will be able to transfer to either Illinois State or Indiana State to get my bachelor's in Fine Arts. I have always been an artsy type of person ever since I was little. Some things I enjoy doing in my spare time are listening to music, drawling, playing music, photography, watching horror movies, going to concerts, and just being around friends and family. What I expect to get out of this Rhetoric class is a better understanding of writing essays, and how I can become better at getting my point across to the reader. As for a name for this blog, I think
"Rhetoric 101 - Student Blog," could be a good name just because it is simple, but i've seen some other good name's people have suggested as well, but that is just my opinion.
Hi Emily, I'm Karah. The reason I chose to reply to your blog was because like yourself I am also an artsy person. What instruments do you play? I have played piano for about seven years and guitar for about three, but I decided my favorite instrument would be my voice. Although I would love to pick up guitar again. I like to play any kind of music I would listen to. I listen to anything usually, just not the hardcore rock or the super old oldies. I am the only person in my family that has ever tried to play any type of instrument, does anyone in your family? I also love photography, actually it was one of the very first classes I ever took here at DACC in college for kids. I love how photography is like a whole other world, you get to give glory to things people wouldn't usually look twice at. I have never been to a actually concert either, but I have been to something close. Every year my bestfriend and I attend the Vans Warped Tour. I'm not sure if you know what that is, but if you like all types of mucis i'm sure you would enjoy it. I think one of my dreams would be to see someone like Justin Bieber in concert! Also, my goals for this class are about the same as yours. I hope you have a great day!
