First Post!!

I'm keeping this blog for Ms. Mozer's English 103, Section 007, Freshman Composition class for the duration of Spring 2008 (and perhaps longer). I'm excited to have an English instructor who's not afraid to utilize "new media", instead of just the traditional pen and paper "write me an essay" approach.

From what I understand thus far, we are to keep a blog and routinely update it explaining how we make an impact locally. To be honest, besides contributing to Tuscaloosa's sales tax revenue, I seriously doubt I contribute much of anything to Tuscaloosa, much less Alabama. Perhaps my viewpoints will change as the class progresses.

Introduction

My name is Wilson Franklin and I'm from Montgomery. I'm a freshman majoring in History and currently plan to pursue a career in law. Plans do tend to change, though, so by the time I graduate don't be surprised if I'm a Geology major hoping to be a sports agent.

I went to a military boarding school for high school (Lyman Ward Military Academy for those of you keeping score) and was absolutely adorable as a young child. Other than that, I'm pretty boring.

That's all for now!

Wilson! I found your blog address. You're no longer blogging in a vacuum.

Looking forward to finding out how if your viewpoints on T'town and AL change or stay the same. :)

And military boarding school? Wow! I had no idea!

Wilson, I know exactly where you went to high school. I went to Pickens Academy, and when we were in the 8th grade we played a football game against ya'll down there.
