Hello, my name is Grace Murphy and am a freshman at Nichols College where I am on the women's ice hockey team. I am from Montclair, Virginia which is about forty miles from Washington D.C and am a huge Washington Capitals fan. Living near D.C is actually a lot of fun, there is always something to do. The only thing I absolutely hate about living near the Nation's capitol is the amount of traffic. You really can not take the highway at any time without ever hitting traffic. In my spare time I enjoy hanging with my friends, country concerts, playing hockey, and playing with my puppy,Tracker. He is the best! Since junior year in high school I have worked at the same restaurant called Tims River Shore. It is located right on the potomac river and the main form of transportation to get there is by boat or wave runner. As awful as the hours are (some days from 12pm- 2am), its a great experience to work there. I also have a weird obsession with quotes. I love finding them, reading them, and sharing them.
    I have surprisingly found myself pretty good  with computers however, there are many things I do not know. I feel that this course could help me better my knowledge with Microsoft Office and other programs on the computer.
      I chose to research blogs about the beach simply because I just love the beach. In this blog,  "Blog the Beach"it talks about the all of the Florida beaches including the Gulf, the Atlantic, and the Keys. In words, pictures and videos, it informs the reader of everything there is to know or need about a beach trip there.
