Meghan Krulder’s Intro

Hello everyone! My name is Meghan Krulder, my pronouns are she/her/hers. I am a senior studying English here at Stony Brook. I went to a few different colleges previously, so I’ll be finishing up my degree in the summer or fall of 2023, since I’m playing “catch-up” now.

You might have guessed that one of my hobbies is reading, but I also run a (mediocre) bookstagram! I also enjoy listening to music, spending time outside, and playing Pokemon Go with my boyfriend. Some of my favorite artists are Harry Styles, Turnover, Taylor Swift, Movements, and Florence + The Machine, to name a few.

I live with my boyfriend Tyler near Patchogue. We have two cats, one named Dewey, the orange one, whose named after a library cat that I read about when I was younger (original Dewey’s name is inspired by the Dewey Decimal System); and Freya, named after the Norse goddess. Tyler chose her name because he’s into all things Norse Mythology. We are crazy obsessed with them and treat them like actual babies (lol).

I decided to take this course to expand my horizons. I am actually not a film or television person! I thought this class would challenge me and educate me on a topic I never had a lot of interest in, mostly because it’s hard for films to hold my attention. When watching movies, I always gravitate towards comedies and romance, sometimes horror, but never scifi! The only film I’ve watched on the list is Inside Out! I plan to make Tyler watch all of the films with me, so it’s a win win.

  1. Hey,
    I really liked your post. I can definitely relate as the only movie that I have watched in the list was “inside out”. Also my boyfriend is really into sci-fi, so I’m planning on making him watch everything with me as well. Not like he will give me a problem, we only watch sci-fi for him. Im more into horror and comedy. Win- Win haha.

  2. Hi Meghan,

    Glad that you are stepping out of your comfort zone in taking this class! I am really excited to talk about all of these films with you all, especially from the lens of the cognitive humanities–which is going to give us new ways to think about thinking!

    Your kitties are too cute! I have two as well. Madeleine a mackerel tabby and Bronte (yes named after the Bronte sisters) a long haired tuxedo.

    Very cool to hear that you have a bookstagram. What are some of your favorite genres/authors?
