Tool Kit

In the tool kit, the section about ambiguity and vagueness stood out to me. I always thought that they were the same thing. But ambiguity has to do with and unclear meaning of words and those words are used in everyday language which is also something that i\I didn't realize. Vagueness is more just word without a fixed meaning. I also realized that most of my vocabulary either uses ambiguity or vagueness. Which makes me want to choose new words to use. But, then I think that doesn't every word use a little ambiguity or have a little vagueness to it. This is because big to me and to someone else has a million different meanings. I found this section interesting because it give me another way to look at everyday English.

Introduction

Hi, I'm Lyndsey. I'm a freshmen this year at MCLA. I am a Psychology major. I graduated from Mount Anthony Union High School in Bennington, Vermont. I have lived in Bennington for almost four years now. My favorite color is bright green. I'm very extroverted once you get to know me. I usually always have something to say and it is very odd if I am speechless. I am very opinionated and will always speak my opinion. I love Sigmund Freud. In my personal opinion he is the best psychologist that has ever lived. I can relate almost any of his theories to anything in my life. I love photography, writing, reading, and music. I am a vegetarian, more for personal reasons than anything else. My mom was a vegetarian so at a young age I started to dislike meat. I am a very stubborn person, but, I have been told that it is one of my best qualities. I know what I want in my life and I don't accept anything less. I strive to be the best. I am the third and last child so I try to do better than my two older brothers. I also am trying to not live in their shadows and to make a name for myself. I have one of the best families who has always believed in me and I really wouldn't be where I am right now without them. They have always pushed me when I needed it and been the support when I don't need to be pushed.
