Maddy Connors - Introduction Blog

     Maddy Connors

Hi, my name is Maddy Connors (they/she). I'm currently in my second year at Bloomsburg University, where I'm studying Secondary English Education and Integrated Theatre. I'm currently reading Freakslaw by Jane Flett and I highly recommend it. I tend to use Open Library a lot, especially when it comes to my English classes and I need to find a book while on a budget. I love me a good YouTube documentary, but there's one that I find myself watching, which is Did Yoko Break Up The Beatles by Lindsay Ellis (I'm also a huge Beatles fan and this documentary changed my perspective on quite a few things so if you share the same interest, I highly recommend that you give it a watch). I love all things cosmetology (I actually got my license to practice cosmetology in 2023), exploring historical sites/museums, everything that has to do with theatre (in case that wasn't obvious already), and playing the Sims 4.

    Hey Maddy, we share the same major which is Secondary English. I am also into watching documentaries especially on Netflix. Something about watching stories unfold is fascinating

    Thanks for sharing, Maddy. I am not familiar with Open Library, so I'll have to check it out in future. It looks like it particularly grants access to older materials. Do they have multiple copies of things?

My name is Alexandria Rose, and I am 24-years-old. My majors are American Sign Language Interpreting and English. I recently graduated with my first degree in Publishing for Writers. When I was 17, I self-published my first poetry book. Since I was a little girl, writing has been my passion. A book that I love and would recommend to others is Archer's Voice by Mia Sheridan. This novel focuses on bridging the gap in communication.  A website that I love is from Bill Vicars. He has numerous free resources available for anyone interested in learning American Sign Language. This website specifically assists with practicing fingerspelling.  https://asl.ms/ Something I recommend is learning how to play the guitar to introduce yourself!

I enjoyed it thoroughly and would definitely recommend it. I also just started reading Tar Baby  by Toni Morrison since I absolutely adore her writing.     I've linked  http://pinterest.com as my favorite website.

Tyler Harper- Introduction Blog

 Hello everyone, My name is Tyler Harper. I am 21 years old and a secondary education major, but also intend to graduate with an ESL certificate. Some hobbies of mine include studying Japanese, playing video games, and physically working out. I have lived in PA for most of my life, but also lived in Colorado, Georgia, and South Korea while serving in the military. A book that I recently read was "Babel" by Kuji Furumiya. It's an entertaining fantasy light-novel that incorporates an interesting approach to linguistics and communication.  I'm a pretty big anime fan, so I decided to link Crunchyroll's website.  I'm always down for new anime, television, and movie recommendations, so please help my watchlist expand even more! Some of my favorite series include Fullmetal Alchemist and Frieren: Beyond Journey's End. I'm also reading the manga for Frieren, so it's been a lot of fun seeing scenes I read become animated in the second season.  Something I wo...
