The audio project
Well, it's unfortunate that we couldn't do the fun and creative radio drama that I was hoping for, but an interview is fine, too. I learned the possibilities of becoming politically active on campus, and that it's never too early to do so, from Karima (sp?). Oh, and Audacity is free. Nice.

The last chapter!
It's about careers.
Taking the end-of-chapter quizzes, one thing I found was what I want out of a career. Some values I chose from a list were having opportunities for advancement, having plenty of time to spend with family, contributing to the welfare of others, and making a lot of money.
There's also a list of my self-management skills, and from that list, I chose sense of humor, ambitious. friendly, helpful, and open-minded. What I noticed were some items that I skipped over, such as completing assignments and being self-confident. Now that I've singled these qualities out, I can work to impove on them.

Chapter 11 is about monneh...
Reading Chapter 11 actually interested me a little bit, seeing that I've been recently thinking about subjects like budgeting and financial independance. Yeah, I'm that boring.
I was NOT going to spend ten minutes sorting a 30 item list of subjects in order of importance to me, but I can make a few comparisons. On the top of my list are a comfortable lifestyle, family activities, friends, independance and security. At the bottom of my list are a new home, shopping, religion, and culture.
I am not a compulsive shopper.
Well, this chapter didn't help me as much as I figured it would, but it helped convince me to keep track of my spendings more. Hell, maybe I'll go find a second job.

The video project
Is the video as epic as I thought it would be? No. Did the topic I suggested follow thorugh? No. But what we did make was random, strange, and oddly funny in the right light. But hell, what's important is that we had fun making it, and no one was really that stressed out. So that works.
Besides, nerf guns are stupid.
Here's the video on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmtDOQqNI5Y
