Introduction

"Hello Clarisse." That is the phrase that almost everybody says when they first meet me. I got my name from my mother's favorite thriller movie, The Silence of the Lambs. I'm from the Philippines, and I came to America when I was fourteen. Some of my memorable culture shocks include: large portions of food, fahrenheit, coin values, spoons/forks, biscuits/cookies, football, and Mexican jokes.
   
My hobbies include video games (specifically WOW and COD), fish-keeping, collecting candles, photography, astrology, and baking. I'm majoring in Biology and I plan to attend Vet School. I listen to almost anything except country music. Some of my favorite artists include Gorillaz, Jem, The Beatles, Eminem, Tool, and Portishead. My favorite TV show is The Office; I also like Family Guy and Prison Break. I love rice! My favorite place to eat is at my mom's house. One thing I like about Ohio is the changing seasons. One thing that I absolutely hate is the smell of red bull. My cat's name is buddy and he is my soulmate.

  1. Hello Clarisse. These are great posts and I love the list of your American shocks. I also like how you have responded to the readings in an open way. Nice job and I am glad you are in class.
