Intro Post

Five individuals, three topics, one university coming together to create a blog. From Jiangsu, China in the eastern hemisphere of the globe to small-town USA, we have created a collaboration of perspectives intended to offer the public unique interpretations on a variety of topics. We will be writing with younger perspectives on current issues involving the humanities and scientific world and attempt to keep you entertained while doing it. Unlike other blogs you will get a unique outlook on topics since we are all from such different areas of the world. Although this blog was created for the sole purpose of fulfilling the requirements of our English 105 class, we intend to bring our geographical backgrounds and knowledge from our majors together and create an intriguing blog. As fellow college students, we hope to not bore you with drawn out articles on un-interesting topics, but rather show you our opinions that evolved from different places around the world  and provide our audience with an enjoyable blogging experience.

My name is Donovan Heath but you can call me Heathbar, just like the candy. I am an undergraduate at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, majoring in Business and Environmental Studies. Although I don’t have much time to do these activities right now, I love listening to music, hiking, and photography. My interest in hiking and photography (the looking at photo’s, not taking them necessarily) began when I took a trip to Vancouver, BC with my family. I find something very peaceful and relaxing about all those activities. It allows me to take a break, reflect on my day and think about things that I otherwise wouldn’t be in the right environment to be able to do so.

 


My name is Yihui Sheng but you can call me Yi.  I am from China and currently a freshman studying in UNC-Chapel Hill.  My major is Mathematical Decision Science, but I am not such a serious and strict person.  Instead, I’d like to talk in an easy way.  Although this blog will be mainly about our English course topics, I'd like to connect those science and humanities subjects with my cultural background and my major.  In fact, I really want to write to all the students of my age, sharing my research and opinions of something which we are all concerned about.   Plus, because I am not that professional, no one has to completely trust me.  I’m more than willing to hear your voice ;)


My name is Zachary Loren but you can call me Zack. I am an undergraduate at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, majoring in Business Administration. I was born in Atlanta, have lived in Washington DC, and now live in North Carolina. I am very interested in sports and played football and golf in high school. I am here to bring you current events with a younger and easy to read approach on the topic. Unlike many scientific blogs that are boring and hard to read I am here to keep you informed and also entertained. 

My name is Liyijia Zheng but you can call me Leah. I am a sophomore student studying Economics and Business at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I am interested in business and various kinds of culture. I am also interested in organizational behavior management and things related to human interaction and everyday life. I was born and raised in China. I love traveling and I like to explore different places with my camera on my hands. Experiencing differences is fun. I love nature and beautiful things. 






I can not broadcast an array of outstanding life achievements, enthrall you with unique stories of my worldly encounters, or attempt to impress you through my knowledge of the world’s latest scientific discoveries; however, as a fellow college student, I can fulfill the all too well known desire for entertainment when there’s nothing left to stumble upon and you realize you have scrolled down the same news feed an embarrassing amount of times. My name is Julia Randolph and I am currently a freshman at the University of Chapel Hill. I am from a small town in the mountains of North Carolina that one person has yet to recognize here. When I was sixteen, I studied abroad in Argentina for six months, which turned out to be the best time of my life. As of now, I am living in the great city of Chapel Hill as that girl that has no idea what she wants to do with her life. With my eighteen years of experiences and my small-town, partly cultured girl perspective, I hope I can provide you guys with a little afternoon entertainment!
