About
Hi there. My name is Gt Munn. I'm 21 years old. I'm a senior at the University of Florida majoring in the telecommunications program. My plans are to graduate and get involved with the film industry some how. I'm into all sorts of things. I strive to always learn and am always want to explore.
At an early age I found I had a great love for music. Some of the earliest films I remember from my childhood involved my love for the scores that accompanied them. Two that come to mind being Batman (89) and Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. I found I could never get those wonderful themes out of my head and even found myself running all over the playground humming those heroic themes to my many adventures upon those wooden forts.
In fourth grade I began learning the violin. From then until mid high school I had only experienced and orchestral, classical setting. Due to a change in location, and absence of fellow string players, I found myself beginning to play by ear with different bands. Many of these have been church related involving performances at churches, camps, weddings, dinner parties, and all sorts of other gigs. I find that my love for film music wanders its way into my playing since the majority is just what comes out of me and what I am feeling. The most recent being bits of Meet Joe Black I believe. Over time I picked up other instruments including the mandolin, string bass, and bass guitar. Recently I have begun playing the guitar and harmonica, and the bagpipes are on the list.
I also have a great love for film. They have always been a part of my life, and something I have respected as an art form. I enjoy playing paintball, though it does get quite expensive at times. I'm a runner. Something I enjoy doing, especially since it gives me time to enjoy film music. I love to read. Some of my favorite authors include Michael Crichton, John Grisham, Ian Flemming, William Shakespeare, and Daniel Defoe. One of my favorite books is Robinson Crusoe. I have a great love for history. I've always felt I was born in the wrong time period. The dream time period and occupation for me would be a captain of her majesties navy some time around the Napoleonic war. Besides that period, I love studying WWII, the Victorian Period, the Middle Ages, the American West, the Norse peoples, and Ancient Rome. My favorite teams are the Red Sox, the Orlando Magic, the Celtics, and the Florida Gators. The Gators are an American Football team, and have won the national championship twice in the past three years, and we are sure going to give them hell this upcoming season. I have a great fondness for the romanticism of the ocean. And, I love Women.
I love meeting all sorts of people. If you have any questions or would like to talk please let me know.
