Art Education 252-Introductions

Now on to some introductions!
















My name is Kory Munk. I am a Sophomore at Ohio State University majoring in Exploration. I grew up in  a small rural suburb just outside of Sandusky, Ohio (Cedar Point if you're not familiar). In high school I guess you could've classified me as the nerdy band geek and occasional teacher's pet. My high school friends and I are still pretty close and like to hang out whenever we get the chance that we are all home at the same time, generally over breaks. 

As a college student I have found out very quickly that it takes a lot more work than what I was normally used to. My freshman year unfortunately did not turn out very well for me but I have started to 'repair' my grades this year. I am not entirely sure what I am going to do with my life after school or even what I'm going to major in for that matter, but I feel like I will be able to figure it out eventually. In college I've found my interests have changed quite drastically from those in high school where I used to enjoy the natural sciences but have recently grown more fond of understanding human behavior.

Outside of school I mostly like to sit at home and watch tv shows although I have the most fun when I can get away from everything and just spend time with my friends. Even when I'm having a rough day or even a rough week, my friends can always turn it around and make me feel so much better. I also am quite fond of music and although I can't say I have a definitive genre that I like, I generally like music created by talented singers. I actually enjoy listening to music for it's harmonies and musicality. I'd rather listen to someone or something that sounds real, raw, and challenging than listening to talentless singers screaming into a microphone.

Now onto my top 5 list:
TV Shows
1.) Doctor Who

I came across Doctor Who fairly recently within the past year and it has since consumed my life! I don't know what I did before it.

2.) Merlin

Another show I have come across quite recently, Merlin has quickly climbed up the ranks of my favorite shows.

3.) Torchwood

I actually started watching this show, a spin-off of Doctor Who, with great expectations left by the Doctor Who Legacy. Unfortunately it didn't quite live up to the same standards as my favorite show but it still created a convincing story that was easy to love.

4.) Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Officially off the air in 2003 this show really drew me in with it's lovable characters and it's strong plot development (and my friend would kill me if I didn't mention it) but yes this show was introduced to me by my friend Brooke.

5.) Glee

And rounding out my top 5 favorite TV shows is Glee. This show has somewhat come down in its ranking on this list over the past year. It used to be one of my top favorite shows but the lack of continuity in Season 2 left this Gleek unimpressed. Thankfully this 3rd season has begun to show some promise but it still has a long way to go.

Well I guess this about sums up most of me and I look forward to meeting all of you.
