Me (post 1)

I guess you could call myself a hipster... but not the type of hipsters that are vegan eaters, grow out their long bushy beard (Although i'm lying to myself because I actually plan too) or dye their hair crazy colors (that I can assure you that I will never do). Yet, the interests that revolve around me are somewhat linked towards the idea that if you like these certain things you are classified among one of them. I have a particular love towards old and classic movies like the star wars trilogy, the god father, Point break with Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze (man I love that movie), and the rocky series with Sylvester Stallone. This does not mean that I do not enjoy movies of the 21st century, this just means that these movies were some of the first to make certain movie plots which we categorize now now as movie cliches, but before they were not cliches at all. As for my adoration for music, it is not really hard to love more than one music genre and within that genre different eras because each era tells a story with the factors of that time and time in the music genre is so unique that there is so much selection for the ear to listen too for just one genre out of many! I would say my top 3 genres throughout the time of music would be modern rap, 50's jazz and the last genre which is called tropical music from latin america. Now step aside my hobbies of collecting Pop figures and vinyls for my soon to be collection of music throughout time, I do have more responsibility now as a diploma student heading into a small fraction of what determines my future, university. I care about the grades and the effort that I put into each task given and i cannot simply walk away from not knowing something, I refuse. In the long term, these bursts of effort given in the beginning will ease the amount of work i'll have in the future and will help manage my time. My goal really for this year is not only to pass it like everyone else has on their minds, but to get most of my cas done as well as be confident for grade 12 which would be my last year of school (i still cannot grasp that i have 2 years of school left). For language and literature, language has a major role not only in mine but everyones life. It's how we communicate with teachers and friends in the school, and mainly how we communicate in the world without the need of any verbal language use or to have to surpass the language barrier. This is the reason why i believe language and literature is an important subject to choose, because it allows us to communicate and understand one another in this world regardless of any limitations. On the surface, there are limitations with language as i am an expact who's mother tongue is spanish and secondary language is english. The language in this country is arabic and when all of my arabic friends engage in a conversation with their mother tongue, i obviously feel excluded out. However that is on the surface because in the end, we both like the same things and want to have the same goal, thus why we are friends in the first place and break the language barrier. In all honesty, i think that language barriers are never really there to begin with since we have so many ways now of communicating without verbally speaking. R.E.O.S out
