My dad raised me on film which has led to me being deeply invested in seeing every major movie that comes out. Some of my favorites are: Fight Club, Zodiac, Prisoners, , Good Time and The Creature from the Black Lagoon.


I also love horror movies like: Psycho, It Follows, and The Thing.

In my opinion, the greatest science fiction author (and my overall favorite author) is Phillip K. Dick. His books have been turned into many movies such as Blade Runner, The Man in the High Castle, and Minority Report. My all time favorite book however is Ubik where he analyzes capitalism, religion and the limits of the human mind while still creating a very unique and psychedelic story.]]> 2018-08-14 01:43:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jojomonster679/5ih8a53se1an/wish/272968098 jojomonster679 https://padlet.com/jojomonster679/5ih8a53se1an/wish/272968623 Another hobby of mine is playing video games. I tend to enjoy great video games more than great movies or books because since it is an interactive media it allows you to become more invested in the story or events that are happening. Some of my favorite games are: Journey, Inside, Star Wars: Battlefront 2 (the original), What Remains of Edith Finch and of course all the arcade classics (Galaga, Pac-Man, Mappy).

In the future I want to attend UT Austin and be enrolled in the Arts and Entertainment Technologies Program where I can study Design and Computer Science. With this education and can then go on to become a app, web, or game designer.

These are not only great cities with lots to do but are also where my siblings live. My brother is currently enrolled as a Microbiology major at UT Austin and my sister is working in post-production in the television and film industry in Los Angeles.]]> 2018-08-14 01:56:03 UTC https://padlet.com/jojomonster679/5ih8a53se1an/wish/272970068 jojomonster679 https://padlet.com/jojomonster679/5ih8a53se1an/wish/272970289 My two dream vacations have always been to travel to Australia and Japan.

I've wanted to go to Australia since I was a kid because I used to have a large interest in Marine Biology. I would want to swim in the Great Barrier Reef before it completely dies.

I want to go to Japan because I love city settings and Japanese food. I think it would be a lot of fun to wander around Tokyo and discover new foods. Of course, I also really want to hop on the bullet train.

Although I do not agree with his views on many subjects, I find that listening to his podcasts makes me think of issues in different ways and challenges my beliefs. He also is a very talented interviewer who is not afraid to ask questions that some people may not want to. My favorite episode of the show is when he talked with a woman, who remained anonymous the entire time, that makes a living getting paid a ton of money to date rich people. I thought this episode was so interesting because he constantly questions the morality of the profession without ever criticizing her for doing what she does. He also does a YouTube show where he discusses history and current politics. Another one of my favorite videos of his:
