Hello Everyone, My name is Nato, and I am 22 years old. I am from Georgia (country) which is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. I moved to the United States at the age of 20 alone, which has been one of the biggest step forward in my life. The decision required a lot of confidence, patience, strength, and dedication, which all has been worth for what I have today. This is my fourth semester at BMCC, and I am truly enjoying every path of this journey. My major is Liberal Arts. From the very beginning, I wanted to explore every field of the study which afterwards would help me decide my career path. Currently, I am deciding between Marketing and Graphic Design. During my free time, I enjoy exploring New York city with my friends. Photography is one of the best tools I use to capture beautiful moments and it helps me save memorable events in my life. During winter, I enjoy snowboarding and most of the winter sports, but in summer I can spend hours on beaches. I love traveling and when there is a chance, I always try to visit new places. Recently, I visited California with my friends for the first time which was really exciting trip for me. Thank you, Natalie

Prompt: Why do you think I might have assigned this as the first story of the course? Based on my experience, I find the stories interesting when the author puts a lot of hidden messages in it which might not be obvious when we first read it. In my opinion, both external and internal information gives us a full deep image of the story. The story “The Most Handsome Drowned Man” written by Gabriel Garcia Marquez is one of the best examples of presenting both character’s internal and external journey. The story is about a village that finds a dead man on its shore. The author perfectly describes dead man’s physical features and emphasized on how big and masculine he was. We see the internal journey when women start taking care of the protagonist, which step by step lead us to the conclusion of the story. In my opinion, the reason why we were assigned this as the first story of the course is to make us first questions and second realize the details we read in the stories. How each detail makes the story as one whole. How character’s physical or inner world are connected with each other and how all of it leads us to conclusion.
