Blog Entry #1

Greetings blog readers, my name is Mitch and you have just stumbled upon a blog of my thoughts on readings given to myself from a science fiction class instructor. I can not promise that this blog will only pertain opinions on the readings, but I promise that the tangents based on other miscellaneous aspects of my life and opinion will be introspective and thought provoking enough for you to keep reading. I am 20 years old, going for my AA and hopefully will be able to continue writing in my spare time. The main reason why I took this course was to pick an elective that was both something I needed to fill out a certain part of my degree audit, as well as something that would peak my interest in reading further, and this seemed to satisfy both requirements really well. Although I am fairly well versed in movies and certain books I am fairly unfamiliar with most of what the genre has to offer. I personally love specific Sci-fi films such as Under the Skin, Videodrome, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Brazil, Time Bandits, and others within the genre, but I'm fairly unlearned in many of the Fantasy as well as Horror genres of literature and film. I am also hoping with the progression of the class material that I will be able to become vastly whelm myself with all new kinds of books and movies to watch and discuss about. I am always a person that doesn't like to shut up about movies and books, especially if it's one I find very complex and open to different variations of interpretation, so if out of the plethora of other blogs on Sci-fi literature you find yourself wanting all of the things listed above, you've come to the right place. Thank you for reading, and I'll be posting again real soon.
