Hey, I'm David Schmiedeskamp. I currently am attending Wildwood to receive my accosociates degree. I am a sophomore. I have never been much of a reader until about five years ago. For two of those years I was overseas, and had a lot of down time with nothing to but read. So I began to read a lot. I haven't kept up as much as I would like to be reading now. I have a busy schedule. I am a high school rugby coach, and play on a men's club rugby team here in St. Louis. My favorite author is Tim O'Brien. I have read and reread multiple times "The Things They Carried," and "If I Die In a Combat Zone." I enjoy his works so much because I can relate to them on a personal level. He tells the story through the eyes of an infantry soldier in war, just like I was. The wars might have been different, but the feeling and emotions are the same. I apologize for taking so long to write this, but I am technologically challenged. I am looking forward to working with everyone in the class.
P.S. I have tried this 3 times, but my computer will not upload any pictures so next time I will have one of myself.
