Hey everyone,
My name is Glynis Coito, my pronouns are (she/her/hers). I am a multidisciplinary studies major with concentration in business and English, I plan to graduate spring of 2023. Interestingly enough I was in the medical field before this. I am an Emt- since the beginning of covid, and was at SB for respiratory therapy. A major work related car accident had me retire from the medical field early. On the bright side, nothing was really badly injured, just cant lift more than a certain amount. My plan is either to go to business when I graduate, or get my masters in Physician assistant (dermatology). Fun fact, fresh out of high school I was an English major here at stony brook but decided that I wanted to be in the medical field. Funny how life works, huh?
I took this class because I am also taking a business class in summer session 2 and I needed an English class that was going to make me want to write every week. This class seemed interesting and who doesn’t love watching movies. I also do enjoy writing but I want to learn how to write better and to improve my language in writings. I am looking to get out of this class of thinking outside of the box. I believe with this class and watching films, seeing everyone responses will help me think differently than my bubble.
I have a tuxedo cat named Archie, he is my entire life. Since my parents live in Portugal, its just him and i. I love traveling around the world. Fun fact- I have my passport since I was a month old. I also speak portugese, so any portugese people in this class – OLA! My friends say, i am the mom in the group, always caring especially when someone gets hurt- I am also an open book who loves to talk and Im very bubbly. So, feel free to email me and maybe we can get drinks. Only 21 and older, of course. LOL. July 31st- August 7th I will be in a cruise with my boyfriend and his business partner to different islands in the Caribbean. Don’t worry, I will be doing all the required assignments before that week/due dates. That basically sums up about me. Nice to meet you guys and I look forward to starting this class with all of you. 🙂

Hi Glynis,
Very nice to meet you! I am very sorry to hear about your accident (though relieved that you are mostly recovered). It does seem like fate that you found your way back to English.
Over the course of the next 6 weeks, I think we’re all going to be challenged to think about the mind in different ways. I am really excited to introduce you all to the work in cognitive science and philosophy that we’ll be putting in conversation with the film and television shows we’re watching.
I am also in love with little Archie. He is so cute! I have a tuxedo kitty as well, but she is long haired and shedding like crazy right now.
