I've experimented with making videos before, obviously nothing to this extent though, because it has always intrigued me and I love editing videos. Whenever I go on trips I take little videos of anything and everything and in the end when I get home I put them together with music (to me, its extremely satisfying). I want to look more into it to see what else I can create, and I love what Sasha Water Freyer had to say about it. Her job connects with her passion, but it's also like a hobby for her. That scares me a little because I feel like I would slowly lose the time to edit all of the film and then eventually just stop making them. All of her work are long projects created over a long period of time, which i think is really cool because your vision.goal can change so much during that time, but you also get such a long time to think about it so in the end it really is what you wanted. She runs into issues that the majority of people have issues with (finance, time, etc). I also love her emphasis on studying what you're passionate about. A lot of people, especially people my age, gravitate towards what their friends are doing, are pressured from their parts and do what they want, and/or don't even know what they want to do (which is me). That's all understandable, and I know at some point I'll find what I want to do, but some people don't ever plan on abandoning their parents dream for their own, which is terrible life to live because you won't succeed without doing something you don't love.

I think its really cool how you connected with Freyers over editing the videos and I've seen your vlogs and stuff and I know what you mean :). I also completely agree with what you say about studying what you are passionate about. It is so important because then you will truly excel in your work.

This is a good reflection but it is incomplete. This is from the WS CHECK document that you left on the table!!!! " Is the 2/20/2019 Lunchtime Lecture post COMPLETE (heading, name of speaker, date of lecture, image(s), summative reflection, resource(s))(notes should be in the sketchbook!)? YES — NO." What did Shreya circle?? I wish that she had offered you feedback HERE re: the need to add image(s) and a resource.... so this post is incomplete...but you shouldn't rely on Shreya to tell you that!
