Self Introduction

 Introducing Me

Hi Everyone! My name is Katrina but I prefer to be called “Kat” since that’s two syllables less and naturally easier to deal with. I’m a freshman from Jamaica and for the first time this year I’m finally on campus in Appleton. The general temperature in Jamaica is 80°F and above, so it’s safe to say that the weather lately has been a test of how fast I can adjust to change. I plan to major in English and may potentially minor in film studies. By taking this class, I’m hoping to learn the answer to the question of if I should pursue film further. My interest in English is ,in a sense, tied to my desire to learn film since when consuming any form of media I enjoy breaking apart and analyzing the literary components involved in its creation. Similarly, I want to be able to do this with film by understanding more about the effort put into film making and thus learn how to pinpoint aspects behind its development in the future. I’m looking forward to an enlightening term!
