Sakai Discussion Post

Just like most of the people here, I'm also an illustration major. I'm originally from Venezuela but have lived in Florida for about eight years. Before that, I also lived in Puerto Rico for a year. I have not completely mastered the english language yet, but I want to learn as many other languages as I can. I love music, almost any kind. I'm a big movie person and watch just about anything. I particularly love Disney movies and I think they're my inspiration when it comes to art. My ideal job would be at Disney. My goals are set for being a storyboard artist but that could easily change as I learn about other careers that are involved in the movie making process. I also love reading. Before this summer, I never really got into any books, but now I can devour them the same day I buy them. I enjoy suspense thrillers and Harlan Coben would be my favorite author in that genre. But I also love fantasy/romantic novels (yes, like Twilight). My favorite author is Richelle Mead, and I feel that her books, although very entertaining, have left a deeper impression on me. I like the way her main characters are and the cynical way she views so many things. Although I love reading, writing isn't something that drives me crazy. I don't think I'm necessarily bad at it but after being in an AP class last year and listening to some amazing essay, I have to admit that mine are pretty simple. I don't like writing because I feel like I can't fully express myself when it comes to a certain topic, but I will try my best to improve my writing because I know that it's essential in the careers I have my sights set on.
