Introduction

Greetings. My name is Rebecca but most of the time I go by Becca. I'm a sophomore at Trinity University. I hail from the city of Houston, Texas (Google Earth is not currently working on my laptop, I'm trying to fix it and when I do I shall post a link). I'm an only child, but I come from a large and loving family. I'm interested in politics, literature, theater, coffee, drawing, and general absurdity. Something you should know about me is that I idolize Tim Gunn from Project Runway. I love his style, vocabulary, and overall persona, and would love to be just like him. I will most likely be majoring in political science and minoring in English with the intention of going to law school and becoming a lawyer. On campus you can usually find me participating in theater, reading, doing homework, or just dancing with my friends. You will rarely catch me sleeping.

I was a PC user until I was 18. Despite those 18 years of PC experience, I unfortunately did not come out of that time knowing much about how to use PCs. I can use a PC as well as any average person but I would not consider myself advanced in PC usage by any means. However, I'd really like to learn more about using PCs. In the past my lack of knowledge about PCs has caused me problems and I now intend to end my ineptitude by taking this course. I would really like to learn how to deal with PC problems in particular. I also would love to learn more about photoshop. I currently own a Mac, which I absolutely adore. I find it easier to use and more user friendly, although I still feel I have more to learn in the world of Macs as well. I'm very excited to learn about computers in this course.

You can email me at Rpiller@trinity.edu if you have any questions or comments.

  1. Welcome to the class, Rebecca! You should learn a lot about PCs in this course, but it will also help with your Mac because you can use many of the same programs. Don't forget to include a link to your email in the entry.

  2. What a great post, Becca. I have a split personality regarding computers, too - I was a Mac person who ended up on a PC and now am having to relearn Macs! Welcome to our class. I look forward to working with you this semester.

  3. I am exactly the same with my computer history. I had a PC until I was 18 and then it died :( so I ended up splurging and getting a Mac Book Pro! It is so pretty :) Macs rule!

    ps- Project Runway is so awesome :)
