A.C.R.

Ok first off...Chris don't hate me. Please. Life is crazy...anywho.

Claims

In my paper I make the claim that the Helaman Halls visiting hours should be changed.  And not only the hours, but I also claim that the days shouldn't be just Sundays and Wednesdays.  Another one consists of the administration and that they should let us choose not only the days but the times as well. My final claim, and thesis, is if the men are allowed in the rooms somedays, they should be allowed in the room all days.

Reasons

Some of my reasoning includes that there is no difference from one day of the week to the next.  Also I stated that Heritage Halls can have guys in their dorms as much as they want. As well as working on finding the Wyview visiting rules and regulations.  Another reason consisted of believing in free agency which should qualify us to choose the days and times for that matter that the guys come "visit".

Assumptions

I think my first assumption is really that people living in Helaman Halls are bothered by these visiting times.  I make it sound like we are all on the same page about this policy.  I noticed another assumption is that people are supporters of free agency (not too hard to assume). Also, that my audience cares to be equal with Heritage and Wyview. Hmmm...what else? I seem to struggle with this one the most.  The last assumption that I can think of is assuming the intentions of the administration a little here and there.

Starting Fresh

To begin somewhere simple, my name is Shannon Goettsche.  I grew up in Anaheim, California otherwise known as the home of Disneyland.  That place was my home away from home when I was little and I am not afraid to say that yes, I still am a huge fan of Disneyland.  When I was eleven years old my family moved to Alpine, Utah which is where I currently just came from.  I've really enjoyed my time here in Utah and have spent it learning and developing several different activities.  At the start of my Utahan life I found joy in ice skating.  While it was painfully cold at sometimes it was very exciting.  Then I played the flute, piano, violin and am currently fooling around with guitar. It's a work in progress. I also love to dance! I think dancing will always be a passion.  I was on a dance team for a couple years and spent my high school experience on the cheer squad.  And now here I am...high school is complete and BYU has begun. 
    I'm excited to work hard, dive right in and become a better writer.  I do happen to enjoy writing, depending on the topic of course, but I've always had fun with the task.  As of right now, I want to minor in sign language and hopefully major in pharmacy.  If you haven't noticed yet, I am constantly fingerspelling! It's a habit, whether good or bad, I have acquired.  Quite frankly I am in love with the language and hope to become an interpreter.  I can't wait to see what the future has in store...
With that being said, I love to talk and make new friends! If you would like to know more I would love to be of assistance.
