Abstract
Callia is a first-year student who currently lives in Indonesia and who hopes to study Entrepreneurship in the College of Management. She has an interest in music and languages, and feels that this class was the first time she was “encouraged to think about the connections between her two passions and to create something in both writing and song.” Callia grew up speaking English and Chinese, and through the years she has spoken Indonesian and Korean; she also has learned German and Japanese. She has a great interest in learning new languages and hopes to become fluent in many more. Callia believes that “language comes in many different forms and it impacts our lives even when we seem oblivious to it.” She says that “this essay project made me realize how language has impacted my life and will continue to do so in the future.”
