Hello everyone! My name is Ahad and I am a rising second-year biomedical engineer, hoping to graduate in May of 2021.
Currently, I am in the online lecture of the course, either listening to the live sessions in the Whittaker building, or doing homework in my house in Smyrna.
I am also a premed student, with dreams of one day being a cardiologist and opening my own hospital. Tied to these dreams are my obligations of volunteering in a clinic in Lawrenceville, tutoring middle-school children, playing and watching basketball whenever I can, and trying to start research with a professor.
Although I have a lot of experience with English classes in high school, this is my first English class at Georgia Tech, so I do not really know what to expect, as high school and college are completely different. But I feel as though I have done enough analysis and writing to, hopefully, do well and have fun listening to and exploring Hamilton (Original Broadway Cast Recording).
To continue, I love the written, visual, and electronic aspects of communication and literature; however, since I do not use social media a lot, I would hope to improve the electronic aspect of my writing. Finally, I also hope to improve my oral and nonverbal skills, as I sometimes struggle to convey my points by tongue rather than by paper.
I have never heard nor seen Hamilton before, as I am not a huge fan of musicals; however, I do love to step out my comfort zone to simply learn more and become a better student/person/writer/thinker. I love hip-hop with a fiery passion, so I think listening to a rapped and sung musical will be an incredible journey!
Another thing about me is that I was born and raised in Canada, so I wish I could share my “accent” with you all; I moved here about ten years ago, but one day I hope to go back to Wonderland!
