    2. If you could be transformed into (or reincarnated as) an animal of your choosing, what would it be and why?
    3. Identify ONE of your favorite media texts or artists and explain why the text (or person) appeals to you. (Be sure your focus is on a specific book, movie, TV show, song, computer/video game OR author, performer, game creator, etc.)
