My name is Allison McGinnis, and I am currently a sophomore at NC State. I am technically still in the First Year College at State, but at the end of the year I intend to have matriculated into the college of engineering to work towards a material science major. I originally planned on doing a chemistry major, but decided that the high intensity chem classes were too much for me, and while I liked science, and chemistry, I didn't think it was the major for me. With a major in materials science, I will be doing the science that I enjoy while also incorporating my math skills, which I also enjoy. I have always been interested in the fields of math and science, so choosing this major lets me be involved in both fields.
My favorite hobby I think would have to be reading. That may sound a bit nerdy, and boring to some people, but I have always really enjoyed it. I used to read all the time back in high school and before, but now that I am in college I don't have the free time that I used to have to read for pleasure. I mostly just have time for doing assignments, and the only reading I do is for classes and not for pleasure. When I have the chance over school breaks and summer I try to fill some of my spare time with reading instead of watching tv, which I seem to be able to find free time for during the school year...whoops. As far as favorite genre, I'm not really sure, I enjoy a wide range of genres but mostly fiction.
