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.

    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.

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

    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.

    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.

Literacy Project Reflection

The poster you see right below is what I made for my literacy project.  There were other options for this project, such as making a video or creating/leading a twitter campaign.  I didn't choose those options for what I believe to be pretty good reasons.  Why I hadn't chosen to make a video was due to how it had been months since I had used an editing software, plus the last time I tried using it, it didn't work.  As for the twitter campaign, that would have required me to have some level of social skill, meaning that I am unaware of how to make any kind impact via social media.  With those other options in mind as not being right for me, it seemed correct to go along with making a poster.  Besides, it would have been good practice for some other classes I am taking.   As you can see, the poster has a stark but smooth design in which the books are the focus.  Those books in question are the very same as the required reading for the Contemporar...

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...

This I Believe

Audio and voice recording >>   I believe in the uniqueness of different countries’ societies; the differences in everyday occurrences that people endure.  I believe in how life can be complete opposites for citizens of different countries.  From the ages of two to eleven I lived in Tokyo, Japan.  My family was one in a million, an all American family in a pool of Asians, Europeans, and Africans.  I lived my life day to day being unable to understand what most of the other people were saying in languages other than English.  I spent my time with bi-lingual friends who would oftentimes speak to their families in their native tongue while I sat back and waited for them to speak English again.  It wasn’t weird and I didn’t question it because it was all I knew.  I would walk through crowds of Japanese people saying things I did not understand and not even acknowledge that I couldn’t tell what they were saying.  This was life for me....
