I was born in Mobile, Alabama in 1991. The things I am most interested in are reading and playing video games. I spend almost all of my free time playing video games. I am fairly proficient at Gears of War, but mostly I play role playing games. The only genres of book that I read are Fantasy and certain Western novels.
My father is probably the single most influential aspect of my life. Because of him I love to read,and his world views are probably the thing that has shaped my personality and thinking processes.
My major is Secondary Education with the intention of becoming a high school history teacher. I have always been fond of history, studying the past has always been fascinating. Mythology has always interested me more that any other possible subject.
The Randy Pausch video about managing your time was a slightly interesting little video about how to constructively managing all of the things currently happening in your life. He basically just tell you to not become stagnant. If you want to finish everything you need to do you need to actively work on it, you have to try if you want to succeed.
Have you read Marion Zimmer Bradley, The Mists of Avalon? This is my all time favorite book.
ReplyDeleteAlso I highly recommend all of Guy Gavriael Kay's book.
All of these books are mythology based on historical events.
