Francisco CervantesCurrently a slightly undecided Neuroscience major with aims for world domination. He hopes to one day unite the world's military strength to destroy the sun. He served as the web editor for Myriad 2010, though admittedly most of the work had already been done by then. His hobbies include playing video games, reading, science, and fire (which is arguably also very scientific). His motto is: "If there is but a single truth in this world, it lies within oneself." Or something like that. |
Kaitlyn HixI've been at El Camino for three years; this is my last semester here so I thought I'd get involved. I'm an English major so you'll usually catch me lurking about Humanities building. I'm hoping to transfer to UCLA and get my credentials to teach High School English and Creative Writing. |
Lizette SanchezHello! My name is Lizette Sanchez and I'm an Environmental Science major. I decided I wanted a career in the Environmental field when I was a senior at Narbonne High School. I took a class that everyone including the teacher called "APES". (Yeah, I laughed REALLY hard at that name too!). It was the first ever environmental class at Narbonne High and it stands for Advanced Placement Environmental Science. Not to sound corny but learning about this new subject changed my life! And well, since this is supposed to be really short then I guess that's all I have room to say. :] |
Nenna OlumbaThere are many individuals who sway to their own natural rhythm. Then, there's Nenna. Probably not from this planet. Nails changing at the drop of a hat, giggling over everything, and a lover of math, Nenna enjoys reading, writing, yoga, and Nintendo as she waits for the mothership. |
Nick GiovatiHolder of a B.A. in English and Spanish from the University of San Diego, Nick Giovati found himself at El Camino College in the Spring of 2010, in further pursuit of the craft of poetry and creative writing. As one of five boys born to Italian and El Salvadoran descent, Nick's love for linguistics began in the ethnically diverse community of Del Aire, California, a small, unincorporated part of Los Angeles county wedged between the neighboring communities of El Segundo to the west, and Hawthorne to the east. It was here that Nick was first introduced to the words of Tupac Shakur and Pablo Neruda, men whose unconventional use of language led to new ways of looking at the world, and new forms of expression. It was under their examples that Nick began writing poetry and short fiction, and he is the most recent recipient of the 2009 Lindsay J. Cropper Award for Creative Writing in Poetry from the University of San Diego. Nick plans to pursue an MFA in Poetry and Creative Writing in the fall of 2010, and hopes to one day become a professor of contemporary American poetry and translation. |
Rachel JordanRachel Jordan hadn't discovered her passion for writing until the age of seventeen, though to this day she can still remember moments during her early youth that helped influence her love for the art of storytelling. For as long as she can recall, her head has always been uplifted towards the proverbial clouds, though, she explains, "I eventually learned to watch where I was walking after colliding many times with a few larger beings..." Rachel is currently a twenty-year-old student at El Camino who hopes to expand her artistic talents towards all mediums. She enjoys nature and all of its wildlife, and shares her home with her family as well as with her very large Green Iguana, named "Arrowhead," and her Parakeet, "Budgie Boy." |
