Introduction: What rationale did you have for taking this class?

My name is David White, I am 18 years of age, and I am currently employed by the U.S. Army. I'm also currently enrolled in Central Texas College's course Business Writing. The rationale behind taking this course is to better myself in education. I also would like to improve my GT score. In order to get promoted in the military you seem to have to be better than the next guy at something else besides PT or Marksmanship. I would like to have some form of degree in my name, so what better way to get it than by going to school. But of all these reasons the most important would be to complete an Associate's degree in General Studies. One of my main goals at this time in my life.
