Campus Event

I went to the dance at the DC a while ago and never wrote about it. It was not really a dance because no one danced, but there was sand bottle making and music. There was also a lot of food. It was more of a stand around and talk type of event. There was also different types of snacks set around for people to eat as they talked.

Peer Mentor/Senior Interview

I was part of the Peer Mentor side, so most of my questions were for the peer mentor. I thought that the interview was interesting because not only did we learn about the peer mentor and senior, we also learned how to use audacity. I had already knew how to use audacity, but it was still interesting because I had never used it to record audio. The editing of the "ums" were very funny because we joked about how we could just make a sound track of only "ums".

Your Guide to College Success: Chapter 12

Chapter 12 is called explore careers. It is about exploring careers. It first says to evaluate yourself. Then you have to find out what you value most which will help you narrow your choices. Afterward, you figure out what your skills are in,and then lastly you figure out your personality. Next, it talks about how to gain experience, through things like internships, co-ops, part time jobs, summer jobs, and community service. It goes over having multiple careers, and networking. It talks about how to move up your career, and life. Finally it talks about resumes, cover letters, and interviews. Recently, in EDCO, I had just learned about this stuff and wrote my own resume and had our own interview practice. I thought that if i had known that this book had stuff about it and i had saw it earlier, it would have helped me more. Since I had already known about most of the things, it was not all that helpful. Although some of the stuff in this chapter about resumes could help improve my current resume because when I first wrote it, I did not know exactly what to write about.

Your Guide to College Success: Chapter 11

Chapter 11 is called Be a Great Money Manager. It talks about how to manage your money in college, banking, and credit. I thought some of the information would be useful for people who don't know how to manage their money. Personally, I can manage my money most of the time. There were some things in the chapter that I did not know about, like the things about banking and credit.

Mixed! One Women Show

We sat outside waiting for the muse workshop mixed one women show to begin. We waited for 22 minutes. The first thing we learned was how to move our index fingers in opposite directions. Afterward we played a thumb and palm game. Last game we played is a clapping game. I thought the show was funny, interesting, and deep. The little shows all had its own unique story line and its own unique thoughts. The wait was worth it.

 

Class

Video Project

One important thing about our video project that we had a lot of trouble with is that it was very hard to meet up. Everybody had different schedules that conflicted with each other. If one of us had a free time at a certain time, others would be busy with class or work. Even the first 2 times we tried to meet up, not everyone showed up, and it was hectic. Eventually, we got everyone to meet up and did it all on one day. I thought it was fun, and there is not much I would have done differently because I thought that, in the end, it turned out pretty well. I did most of the recording when I was not in the movie, and then it was either Allister or someone else when i was in it. As the Director/cameraman, the movie did not go exactly as I had in mind, especially the ending and certain parts, but as unexpected as it turned out, it was funny/interesting/entertaining.
