Hey classmates, my name is Christopher Stern, I am a sophomore Marketing major. I transferred from West Chester University and am from Hershey, PA. I am big into all Philadelphia sports teams (Flyers, Eagles, Phillies) and hope to one day possibly have a career within one of those franchises. I love music and my favorite band is Dave Matthews Band, the way they are able to include a variety of instruments is incredible. I really enjoy going to see movies, and a favorite (I have many) is American History X, I find Edward Norton to be such a great actor. As far as television goes, I have recently become really obsessed with Criminal Minds. I find the show to have more depth within the storyline of each crime and criminal. Being in college for a few semesters now, I haven't found the time to read a novel, my reading consists of college textbooks. I do enjoy reading ESPN magazine, GQ, and Entertainment Weekly. I have taken a couple writing courses already in college that consisted of reading literature. I found some of it to be interesting, while the rest did not catch me. I never got to choose what I wanted to read, I don't enjoy reading something that is forced, I want something to entice me. Literature in my opinion is writing that is creative and has a specific purpose to a topic.

I seriously LOVE Philadelphia sports too hah. Working for one of those franchises would be so cool. Have you seen DMB in concert? I've always wanted to but haven't yet. I've heard its amazing though!
ReplyDeleteP.S. really jealous about those flyers tickets. Hope you have a good time!
It's awesome that you're from Hershey because I'm from Harrisburg and went to McDevitt so I know exactly where your coming from! Philly is my life and my entire family's also. I also am a transfer student, what made you choose Shipp?
ReplyDeleteAmerican History X is such a great movie. Very smart. I agree Edward Norton is brilliant. Welcome to class!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh!! I have become obsessed with Criminal Minds also! i guess a big reason of my obsession is how hot the Australian guy is but besides that it is also very interesting and really makes you think!! As for you being into sports teams such as the flyers, my friend is actually a professional sports photographer! He just captured pictures from the Hershey Bears game last night and he does shoots for the Flyers too! I'll have to get you some prints or something. :)
ReplyDeleteIn response to your post, I transferred because I didn't like having such enormous classes. For example, over 300 kids in my biology class. haha And as far as what games I play, I usually stick to Madden, and Call of Duty when I'm playing with friends and what not. Anyway, GQ is one of my favorite magazines too, and I've become quite the eagles fan since Vick took over this year. I guess it doesn't really make me an eagles fan though but rather, a Michael Vick fan. haha
