Hey! My name is Elizabeth. I'm from around Reading, PA and I graduated from Conrad Weiser High School. Right now I am majoring in Mid-Level Education. From the list of books that we were given and the Blog we have to start I am very excited to start this class. In my spare time I try to have a good book in my hands. Right now I’m in the process of reading the Iliad and I’m also rereading the Narnia Chronicles. I love fantasy and science fiction novels but I also enjoy reading the classics and other genres. My favorite authors are J.K. Rowling, C.S. Lewis, J.R. Tolkien, Jane Austin, Terry Brooks, and others. To me, literture can be defined as any writen and published creative story. Most times though when I picture literature, I think of classic novels more than I would teen girl drama stories. Literature should be well writen and sometimes if not most of the time thought provoking. I like to think about what the author is telling me.
I also love to play my flute, write, and watch good movies. My all-time favorite movies are Braveheart, Inception, and Tron. In the music department I listen to everything from Christian Rock to, yes, a little bit of screaming now and then. It all depends on my mood if I feel like listening to Celtic women, Relient K, or Breaking Benjamin.
AH, yes, now I remember what I wished to say! Sorry, I draw blanks sometimes. Have you read much poetry? Epics? I know your fish is named Beowulf, so I guess you have read a few then?
ReplyDeleteI don't read as much poetry but I definately am trying to read as many classics/epics that I can
ReplyDeleteWe have a lot in common. We both like: The Chronicles of Narnia, Harry Potter and the movie Inception. I would have to say I really don't like reading, but as soon as I get into a book, it catches my attention and i can't stop!
