Hello Everyone!
My name is Nick Gelardi and I am an English Secondary Education major here at Bloomsburg. I am currently a sophomore and plan to graduate in 2027. I am involved in the Honors College, Little Huskies, and Club Soccer here as well. I was born in Warwick, New York but later moved to Milford, Pennsylvania and I still live there now. My favorite hobbies are watching sports and shows on TV, exercising, writing, and playing soccer!
As an English Secondary Ed. major I thoroughly enjoy reading and writing, and in class I mentioned how Fahrenheit 451 was one of my favorite books ever, I would like to elaborate further on my love for this novel. It is such a complex novel, full of thoughts and the exploration of human universals and emotions. The utopian/dystopian setting of the novel being a world where books are banned in society was so intriguing to me. Montag, the main character, is also a round and emotionally complete character that as a reader you get to watch change from the beginning to the end of the novel.
One website that I love is Wordle, as it is so much fun to take a few minutes every day to play whilst also expanding your vocabulary and critical thinking skills. The rules are very simple and explained on the New York Times website as well. A video of something I would recommend is this J Dilla instrumental called Sunbeams. It is very relaxing to do work while listening or just to chill out a little bit, and there are plenty of other instrumentals that he makes that do the same.

Wordle is very cool, but I never got into it, while all my friends did. Maybe I should invest.

ReplyDeleteHey Nick! I have never played Wordle before I will have to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteI started reading Fahrenheit 451 last week! Not sure how I feel about it yet, but it's certainly interesting.
