This morning I had planned on spending my last day with my
team of sponsors but unfortunately did not get to meet with them. I woke up to
a broken computer so I headed over to Hawken early in the morning to get things
fixed as creating the video is essential to my project and final presentation
Friday. Although my computer is now working I did loose a large portion of my
edited video and have been spending today re-creating my project. Luckily, my
sponsors are available to meet tomorrow and help me with the finishing touches
of my production not to mention allow me thank them one last time! (I bought
them these really cool coffee mugs that look like camera lenses!!)
So if loosing my film wasn’t enough I also need to finish
writing my final report for tomorrow and film my last video tutorial. Yesterday
I met with a mechanic, Pete Axelrod, so today I’ll film and upload some quick
mechanic tips. In addition I’ll be mailing out thank you notes that I wrote
yesterday.
Although these last few days of project have been hectic the
past three weeks have been really powerful. Although the lives of blue-collar
workers might seem far away from our academic school days these professionals
have taught me that our worlds aren’t too far apart. Meeting with these common
professions has allowed me to really value the working class. Not only do I
look at blue-collar workers in whole new light but also I see myself as capable
of more than analyzing literature. Hopefully, my video will show just a
fraction of what I’ve experienced.
