My name is Nikki, I am in media studies because I love films. 

If you look above, that is a picture of me playing a live at one of my gigs. Somthing about me is that I love music, I play guitar and bass. I have been fortunate enough to play MANY shows and I love playing live music! I have also got the opportunity to record in the studio for an album multiple times. I have been playing in this band since I was 14, so I have had a lot of learning experiences and come a long way from then. Just the other day, as you can see in that photo; we played at a Cafe and record shop. We had to jump through some hurdles along the way, but it ended up being a very busy show and the crowd loved us. Despite the complications and difficulties... We still stuck by it and went on with the performance.

I am also a collecter of all sorts of physical media, including Records, CDs, cassets, DVDs, and VHS tapes. Most of my life and the way I dress is based around the music I am into, it is a nice outlet for me. 

I also am a movie enjoyer. Some of my favorite films include, Vannila sky, Eternal sunshine of a Spotless mind, memento, Deathproof and the Rocky horror picture show! I love watching movies and having sombody to talk to about the films, I find all the aspects of them very fascinating. The idea of being completely immersed and into a piece of art is something that is beautiful. 

Other than music, or school, a really nice part of my life is the fun dates I get to go on. One of our favorite spots is a little diner called Moonlight . The walls are covered with posters from movies, some of my favorites include the Pulp Fiction ones!

I am really enjoying being apart of this media studies class. I look forward to learning more about the process of what goes into film making.
