Hi guys!
My name is Jamie Wheeler, and I am a new writer for The Odyssey. You can expect many articles coming your way, but for now, I should tell you a little about myself. I’ll assume you have some questions for me.
Where do you attend school?
I’m a junior at Georgia Southern University, where I’m pursuing a BA in English.
Okay, but what are you going to do with an English degree?
Well, I should start by saying that English is an excellent choice as a major, and I am offended by your tone. Really, I hope to someday teach high school. As long as my career involves literature, I know I’ll be happy.
What is your spirit animal?
A snow leopard, but not a very aggressive one.
Talents?
I just have so many. I play both clarinet and ukulele, but my real gift is cutting paper snowflakes. I can say the alphabet backwards, and I’m great at avoiding conversation. But wait, there's more. I also do a mediocre Celine Dion impression. Plus, I know all the words to every song in NSYNC’s No Strings Attached album.
Passions and interests?
I love reading, and I’m a huge musical theater fan. I also love Disney, Corgis, 90’s romantic comedies, corn dogs, and Elton John.
What are your feelings about Shrek?
It is utterly hilarious, and clearly the best movie of all time. If you disagree, you’re wrong.
Anything else you’d like us to know?
I laugh at everything, I always request The Electric Slide at parties, and I’m extremely excited to continue writing for The Odyssey. Until next time, guys!
