My name is Charles Elkins. I am from Plaquemine, Louisiana (near Baton Rouge). I am presently a psychology major. I chose this Tim Burton Seminar because I enjoy some of his movies. I enjoy reading and watching movies, as well as playing a few video-games. I also enjoy humor quite a bit and do not like to take anything too seriously (and by too seriously, I mean over-the-top).
I am a
Freshman at Loyola University New Orleans, which is kind of obvious since I am
in this class. I am a frequent redditor
(although I do not like to get sucked in like a few people), and dislike using
Facebook. I enjoy history, with my favorite subject area being the Italian Renaissance
(although, that changes from time to time). I dislike being under pressure, so
I get things done rather early. I also enjoy English.
I am very
awkward in social situations, which is one reason as to why I am a psychology
major. I like to delve into the human brain and see what makes us work.
Currently, I am taking social and abnormal psychology, both of which really
fascinate me. I find it interesting that humans want to learn more about the
world in which they live in, yet barely understand themselves. I want to
understand why people are the way they are.
I am a
huge nerd. I like Game of Thrones (currently on Storm of Swords in the books),
Harry Potter, Doctor Who, etc. I could go on. My family (I have a brother and a
sister) enjoy taunting me with said nerdiness, which I am perfectly fine with
them doing. I am a big Batman fan (although,
I have not seen Tim Burton’s take on him in quite a while, so this seminar
should be good for that).
I enjoy
travelling. Usually, my family and I go to a foreign location during the
summertime (my favorite has been England, where I plan to study abroad in the
near future). I like to learn about different cultures and languages in the
places where I travel. I also enjoy koalas quite a bit.
