Welcome to a New Term
Welcome to the new term at DMUIC. I'm a media student studying IYZ media at DMUIC.
I am going to study English Literature as I fell in love with books as long as I can remember.
One of my great inspirations is Jack Kerouac (1922-1969) he lived his live with out a fear, simply on his own terms.
More than a mere literary movement, the Beat generation was a revolution. In the 1940s and 1950s, Jack Kerouac found it hard to find his place in the world He hated all traditional values, and the consumerist society in which he lived, as well as the social pressure that op dressed it. It was in this environment that he founded the Beat Generation. (Vogue France)
His strength to live to put himself out there to do whatever he laid his hands-on, becoming a founding father of beat generation without any intention to do so but simply with a burning desire to live his life the way he seemed fit was an inspiration to thousands and also me.
“[...]the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes “Awww!” - Jack Kerouac, On The Road.
