Intro to Me!!... and my awkward nerdiness

So.... hi. I'm Cheryl, and I'm just an average nerd trying to navigate life, hopefully staying in one piece while I'm at it. I am extremely fond of reading and consequently of stringing words together and hoping they sound good. The problem with being the only nerd in your entire class is that, you don't really have an audience to practice on. Which is why I'm staring this blog. I'm going to write here, and if anyone ever stumbles upon my works and thinks they are worth some constructive criticism then... I'm all ears.
I am in all truth, writing this blog because every other writing endeavor I've ever undertaken has never actually been completed- unless it was for school, in which case I never have much wiggle room to begin with- but I'm hoping that having an actual (or theoretical) audience to answer to, might help push things forward if I ever hit a speed bump.
I am hoping to be able to write about, me?.... that is to say, I want to write about my interests and my  journey through my last year of high school. I intend to post new.. stuff, every Saturday but, I might wind up disappearing at some point towards the end of the academic year. Just a warning.  
Anyhow, I almost forgot the important bit of this first post, I'm supposed to be introducing myself and I've only contributed, what a line or so toward that endeavor. So, I am a BIG fan of doctor who, almost the entire MCU and a generous portion of Marvel's non cinematic universe, also of the physical and biological sciences.. so you might find a post or two about those eventually! I have wanted to be a paleontologist since as far back as I can remember and mythology is also up there in my favorites list.
So.. if ever I get the ripe opportunity to write about any of the aforementioned topics, trust me you wont even have to wait till the next Saturday!

Disney Live Action Remakes: specifically Maleficent

This specific post actually came into existence wayyy back in those nebulous times before 'Cruella' had come out, and I wanted to make an early piece of predictive commentary, on whether I thought it would be any good, specifically because most of the rest of the Disney live-action lineup was terrifyingly inadequate in my estimation. This is because, I happen to like the concept behind remaking beloved childhood memories and once, back when I was naive enough to believe that capitalism would at least take the simplistic approach of, 'Let's go with the safe option and just make it the same but with real people on screen', I was woefully inaccurate in that hope. In its original form, this post was essentially my summing up of my opinions as presented in the project I had to do for my Film adaptations course, wherein I had to dissect a movie remake, and its literary source, and see where the differences lie, and why they happened at all. One of the options we had by de

An Elementary School Classroom in a Slum

This poem was written by Stephen Spender, a guy with an extensive rap sheet in the genre of politically and socially inclined commentary. I'm not entirely sure when he visited the slum that this poem is based in, but he has such a melancholic way of describing things that, I am forced to conclude that this happened at a time when conditions were devolving faster than people could try to remedy them, and all that without any help form the authorities whose iron fists seem to rule these places, even through the dust choked air and the cheap squalor! Now, the poem begins by painting the portraits of the children. They are located rather inland and, subsequently in a place that closes them off from the outside world in such a way, that even the gusty waves seem like fairytales, pointless and with fuzzy details. Most of these children look like the soil of a parched garden overrun with weeds of such a rootless nature, that even they cannot thrive there. The first child is a girl, tall

End my Haitus and What to do Now

Can you, whomever you are, please do me a favor. Can you and I just agree to pretend that I didn't disappear for as long as I did without any apparent reason. Thank you for your help. So.... It's not like I didn't know that the net I cast was way too large, to find a decent topic for each post. It may come as no surprise that I'm an idiot in terms of knowing if and how I can write. So i have decided to write in the manner of reviews and only reviews. They'll probably be more like academic analysations, mostly because I have the most familiarity with that style of thinking. Thank you for your time. My ranting about things is a given though so those aren't going away either.
