Who am I? Well, I could probably start off by saying that I’m a high-school (senior) student from central Illinois. Really I’m not from here. I’m originally from Alaska; a couple of hours outside of Anchorage. I miss the cold, the mountains, and the lack of cornfields. My dad used to work on the fishing and cargo boats in Anchorage. It’s never as exciting as Deadliest Catch and The Discovery Channel makes it seem. I’m moving back sometime after school is finished. I could tell you about my hobbies but I don’t really do anything that interesting outside of what a typical high-school student does. i fish, listen to music, go outside, hangout with friends and watch movies. I watch a lot of movies! I’m reminded of the first few pages of Catcher in the Rye while I’m writing this. That’s my favorite book, by the way. I guess this blog is generally about about books or movies I’ve read or watched and what I feel the meaning the author is trying to get across, with some of my own comments on the particular book or movie. I know this is for school and a grade. So, I know I shouldn’t take this too seriously, but I feel like this could be a good place for me to rant about things without getting too personal.
