Hey all of my fellow Writer's Craft students. It's Matt here and I would just like to start off by telling you all a little about myself and why I decided to take Writer's Craft. My reasons for taking this course stem from my love of all things English and because I'm in my fifth year and took most of the other English courses, I decieded that this year my English twitch would be dealt with in Writer's Craft. So far, I have to say that I enjoy it. It seems a bit of a stretch writing creatitvely as most of my other English classes had been against the stuff.
Some of my future aspirations for school include going to Bible college for atleast a year and living in Austrailia for a year or two. I already have visited Aussie land in the summer, when me and my brother set out on a cross-Australia adventure for two and a half weeks. It was a great experience and took us to some amazing sites. We swam in the great barrier reef 40 km off the coast of Cairns, saw Uluru and Kata Tjuta, climbed the Sydney Harbor Bridge and tried kangaroo jerky... and yes, it tastes as good as it sounds. I would definatly recomend Australia as a destination for any avid traveler.
I haven't read that many books to be able to tell anyone my favourite, or who I admire as an author but I will shamefully admit to having dabbled with the four twilight books.
Oh and if anyone reading this has any spare time they would like to fill check out mine and my brother's myspace (http://www.myspace.com/forestethicband). It's kind of a joke but apparently we're a big hit in the Dominican.
I'm looking forward to reading more of your blogs, Matt. So, you ventured to the land of Oz, eh? I would love to hear about it and see pics of Uluru. My sister lives in Queensland so I've been lucky enough to wander aimlessly around Brisbane, Cairns, Sydney and a few small places--Dingo was one of the most memorable. Maybe the name had something to do with it.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, remind me to show you some magazines that might satisfy your wanderlust.
I will definitely check out your and your brother's site...
cheers,
Miss Feick
Mmmm kangaroo jerkey. Sounds absolutely delicious!! My dad's friend Perry goes hunting a lot and make a bunch of food out whatever they bring back. Last time they brought back a moose and made moose sausage, roast moose, and moose jerkey and it was all so tasty. I loved it all :)
