And we're back!

Hi! My name is Ume (pronounced Ooo-me) and I am a junior at SJSU. I was born in Pakistan, lived in Saudi Arabia for 18 years, and moved to California in the summer of 2002. I'm a BA Chemistry major, and am preparing myself to teach chem at a highschool/college level. I've been married almost three years, and am now expecting my first child (hence the online class!). I love cooking, being creative, and of course, TALKING! I was on the speech and debate time in high school, and have written and made speeches for a variety of school-related activities. I love emceeing at parties and absolutely am looking forward to learning more about how to be a better communicator! Good luck to the rest of you this semester...hopefully we'll all do great in our classes!!!
