Intro

So this is my first blog ever. I took this class because it is mandated by the university, and have to say I wasn't really looking forward to it. Fortunately I was pleasantly surprised by the format. I am a little put off about having to learn a lot about film. But I am game for a challenge, and am excited to develop interpretive writing skills pertaining to documentary films and the like. Previously being an engineering major my writing skills are seriously lacking, so needless to say I look forward to developing them and hope they are up to snuff for the course!
I am a junior who is majoring in government and minoring in business. My goal is to work with NGO's in the social realm with the long term goal of operating my own not-for-profit organization focused on sustainable agriculture and development. I have begun the process of setting it up already, but with being a student, working, and all that comes with that, I have had to learn to be patient. Which is hard for me. You can check out the basic website I have set up for the Non-profit by following this link solflow.org.
I look forward to the semester and the blogging experience.
Cheers,
