Aziz Hamid First Blog

      Hi my name is Abdulaziz Hamid but I go by Aziz. I was originally born in Kenya. I lived in Boston, Massachusetts for a couple of years and  now I  live in Hilliard, OH. I went from living in a big city to living in a suburb. I plan to major in Neuroscience. I love learning about the brain functions and behavior. I find this very interesting and fun. My favorite subjects are  science and math. My favorite sport is soccer. A fun fact about me is I speak 3 different languages including English, Barawa, Somali, and I took 4 years of Spanish in high school.

      In English 1110.03 I have already read a couple passages from the The Essay Connection. My favorite short story would have to be Resurrection. "This battle with Mr Covey was the turning point in my career as a slave. It rekindled the few expiring embers of freedom, and revised within me a sense of my own manhood" pg(91). Basically this quote means that Frederick Douglass in his mind and heart he is not a slave anymore. I choose this quote because it very heart touching. This essay is about a slave named Frederick Douglass fighting back with his slave owner Mr.Covey and eventually escaping and becoming free. This was a very good written essay. I love learning about Frederick Douglass, he was a very influential person.
