TJ Hauske's first blog

My name is TJ Hauske, short for Thomas John. I am from Milwaukee Wisconsin, home of beer and cheese. I love Wisconsin, and all the seasons, it’s much like canton weather wise, just 900 miles away. I am thinking about studying sociology. So I can better understand people, then go to a business school, so I can work for my dad hopefully. Besides writing I like to ski, play tennis, go fishing, shoot some guns, and play video games, all while hanging out with friends. My favorite video game is call of duty, best video game there is, I play it way too much though. My little brother also plays call of duty, he plays so much it’s disgusting. When I was home over break he didn’t let me play on his account because he thought I would wreck his stats. At one point he was ranked top 10,000. He would eat and sleep in the basement, doing nothing but play this game. Thankfully I am not like that.
In the beginning of high school my writing always lacked descriptive words. That’s what my teachers always told me. Thought out high school I think I have gained the skills to write with clarity and description that I had lacked before. Besides that I think I can write well.
I guess I would have to say my father influences me the most in my life. He has always been there for me and really is the only one who tells me information about life and lesions.
I really don’t know much about poetry. The only poet that first comes to mind is Robert Frost. I am taking this class so I can learn more about poetry and to help my writing skills out. Through reading descriptive and informative poems I feel I will be able to gain a better understanding of how to make my papers more intelligent sounding.
I really like in poetry how descriptive everything is. It is like reading a short story but there is just so much going on in each stanza. In order to really understand some poems one has to tear it apart. Taking time thinking about how each word is being used and what words come next. I find that very interesting, and I would like to learn how to properly take a poem apart, and learn what the poet is trying to say.
