Sooooo. Our documentary will for sure be done on time! Me and Lena spent tonight at MTN editing and going more crazy. It looks better than it did, but we're still trying to decide what to put at the end of this very um.. un-professional film. Lots of our footage is no good, but we're doing our best. I think if we would have picked a topic we love or are extremely interested in it would have been a lot easier to put this together. But another tough part is.. our documentary is on a radio station. There's not a whole lot to see and I suppose that's why no one makes documentaries on (basically) a place that creates commentary and noise. I've learned my lesson.
This week's reading is "They'll say, 'She must be from another country'", by Imtiaz Dharker. I liked this poem. Most of the time I'm not a huge poetry fan, but I could make some connections. The author literally means from another country and even though I don't know how that feels I do know what it's like to be a weirdo. I, myself, rarely follow the rules whether they be socially or technical. I'll add my twist or veer from the path completely. Either people love me for that or they'll be weirded out. Either way I enjoy being this way and the way others respond to me won't change that.
