Hi, My Name is Cristina and I Have a Nuka Cola Addiction

Also, I Have a Cheese Wheel Hoarding Problem

    Hi! I'm just now starting up my blog because yay procrastination. I've been playing through Fallout 4 again and I've sank so many hours into it (I'm not sorry... okay, maybe a tiny bit sorry).

    Like my title says, my name's Cristina. I'm from Alaska originally, I came to Kansas back in 2015 when I got stationed at good ol' Fort Riley. I've been attending K-State since Fall of 2018, and I'm projected to finish my degree in Medical Biology in Fall of 2021 (fingers crossed). I've got an almost unhealthy passion (read: obsession) with video games. I love first-person shooters (FPS) and roleplaying games (RPGs), especially combinations of the two. I like well-developed stories and character development as you progress. I'm a huge fan of the Mass Effect trilogy and the Fallout series, so I play those a lot. I also like going back into Skyrim to dominate everyone and hoard all of the cheese wheels and mead.

    I find evolution and biology fascinating because there's so many things we still don't know or fully understand yet about who/what we are, our ancestors, where we come from, the sources of all life, if we have any actual religiously-based maker(s), etc. It's all very interesting to me.

    I think that evolution plays a big part in everyday life since we can see it in action. For instance, our hands. We've developed these wonderful, grabby things that can do more than any other species (that I know of, anyway) on Earth. We can build so many things, destroy things, articulate our thoughts in writing/typing, we use them for human connection, for eating, for so many things. Hands are f***ing neat.





(Futurama is amazing.)

    I would like to get a better understanding of evolution, and to read/hear other people's opinions and outlooks on evolution. I like diversity in many things, and I think it's important to consider a lot of other perspectives and to keep an open mind.

  1. High five for hands and a diversity of perspectives! We really want to celebrate that in this class!

  2. Hello Cristina! You sound like a nice and cool person! I was a military kid and we stayed up in Alaska for a bit. It is so pretty! Really weird where it is light for half the year and then dark for the other half. I am a fan of videogames myself. I play alot of solo games but I also have some that are fun to get together with some friends
