ABOUT ME
Hello and welcome to my ePortfolio!
My name is Simran Kaur and I am a first year at UCI. My major is undecided/ undeclared but I am planning to pursue biology and/ or psychology. I am from Fremont, Bay Area. It's the heart of the Silicon Valley- the home to many tech companies. The best hang out spots of Fremont are Lake Elizabeth, Cloverleaf Family Bowl, the BLOCK- shopping center with many restaurants and a movie theater and the famous Mission Peak. San Francisco, a forty minute drive from Fremont, is where many people go to hang out over the weekends. If you ever find yourself close to Fremont one day, don't forget to treat yourself to one of the many indian restaurants here. Here is a list of my personal favorites: http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=Indian+Restaurant&find_loc=Fremont%2C+CA. However, my mom's homemade indian food beats all these restaurants any day.
I live in Middle Earth's Gray Havens. Our theme is "Ohana means family" and our educational theme is first year college students. Some of my hobbies include cooking and watching youtube videos about cooking. I enjoy shopping and watching TV with my grandparents.
I look forward to spending the rest of the quarter in Writing 37!

WRITING 37: Intensive Writing
Writing 37 focuses on critical reading and rhetorics of the detective genre.The main goal of this course is to closely read texts in several types of media and writing for various situations. More specifically, I focused on the conventions of a detective and his sidekick and the importance of detective stories during the Victorian era in my Literature Review and Rhetorical Analysis essay respectively. Throughout the course, students are also required to practice oral communication via group presentations. To relate the Victorian Era texts to modern day, students watch Sherlock and Elementary TV series.
