Fantasy/Science Fiction

Do you like to read fantasy or science fiction?  Why or why not?
Typically, I don't read, but when I do it's usually fiction.  There's something about a sense of something that isn't real that seems more interesting than reality.  I used to read all the time when I was younger, and all those books I did read were either fantasy or science fiction.

What fantasy or science fiction location from a novel (or movie) is your favorite?  Would you want to go there yourself?  Why or why not?
It may seem like a cliche, but I believe Earth in the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) could be my favorite location of all the fiction books and movies I've read/seen.  I'm mainly interested in the aspect of the ancient arts, Doctor Strange's movie, in particular.  I would be very interested in going there myself due to how the magic they can produce is able to be done by anyone.  The idea that I would be able to participate in these practices without any special birthright/talent sounds great.

  1. I think Marvel is a great fantasy universe to get behind. I personally don’t follow Marvel that closely, but from a casual point of view I do enjoy the movies that I do happen to watch.

  2. Joe, I agree. I like that you can make up your own ideas and make the books/ movies more interesting.

  3. I'm a huge Marvel fan and can totally get behind this. Although Dr. Strange isn't my favorite Avenger, he's still interesting and different from all the others, so I still like him. Stan Lee was the GOAT.

  4. I also really enjoy marvel movies and think it would be sweet to be in one with super powers or just being able to hang out with the avengers.

Infographic Debate Project - Offensiveness Behind Sports Team Names

Description: My infographic showcases how sports teams that use Native American names are seen as offensive.  I give the viewer some quotes from readers of an article that all agree with how these teams names and mascots offend and flat out insult Native Americans.  I then showcase graphs that represent the percentage of voters based on certain questions, relating to the football team "The Redskins", asked to them.  For my last bit of information, I refer any viewers of my infographic to the leading organizations responsible for the cause of changing offensive sport team names while also giving a brief description of each. Reflection: Michael Argenta and I chose this topic for our infographic debate project because we both believed there would be enough information for us to each argue either side of the main question.  Since my partner said he could go either way with the project, I decided to choose the more obvious side of the argument since I believed hi...

Literacy Program Project Proposal

Short Proposal: For this project, I intend on doing a poster campaign. Detailed Proposal: This poster campaign will take place in three different locations in the school, one for each wing of the building.  Each poster I intend on looking the same, but in my head, the base design will still pop out.  It will consist of a title near the top to lure in any that choose to look at the boards these will be posted on.  The base design, as previously noted, will pop out due to a more abstract approach with colors that are complementary in a graphic design-ish format.  On the poster(s) there will be boxes of text, or just text, that will promote the message of the project, "read".

Please Ignore Vera Dietz Book Review

Please Ignore Vera Dietz by A.S. King can only be described as an experience. The book follows 17-year-old Vera Dietz in a journey of self-discovery starting with the death of her best friend Charlie Kahn. Although the cause of his death was seemingly known, only Vera knows what really happened to Charlie. This story follows her through two separate timelines, one of her past experiences in chronological order and the other of the present, that both contribute towards understanding her thought process as it leads up to the climax of her decision to either tell about or keep secret about the true circumstances of Charlie’s death. The plot that is described in a variety of different perspectives sends the reader on a wild thought process that leaves them confused as to whether or not Vera will come clean about the mysterious death of her longtime friend. The experience that is this book leaves a sense of pride and sympathy for the characters within the novel, and isn’t that all that’s re...
