So unfortunately, I will have to make this blogpost all sophisticated and serious. We are assigned to do a little wobbling (weebles wobble, but they don't fall down.) Much like this course, we all wobbled and had hoops to jump through, but we never failed. ©
For me my wobbling moment was definitely the ethnography project (and probably everyone else.) To have a project that I haven't done anything like before and have the tasks inside of the project I never done before made it very overwhelming. Why is there a video project in an English class? What does a map have to do with literacy? Why is underlife not a word!? Okay, that went a little too far but I am getting tired of seeing this red squiggly line.
All this wondering and pondering I am doing for this blogpost makes me think of Pink's music video "Try" more specifically these lyrics:
"Where there is desire, there is going to be a flame
Where there is a flame, someone's bound to get burned
Just because it burns doesn't mean you're going to die
You gotta get up and try, try try,
You gotta get up and try, try, try,
You gotta get up and
You gotta get up and try, try, try,
You gotta get up and
Try
Try
Try."
Anytime you come to an obstacle, whatever it is, you have to take risks and chances, like YOLO.
Just kidding, but in reality there "ain't no mountain high enough." I/you/we/he/she/they can do anything we want to if we just put our minds to it. The ethno project seemed somewhat easy at first. There was a plan and actions to complete it. Along the way however, things got thrown at us. We had to reroute our plan and take a detour (and face more construction problems on 85.) But in the end everything fell into place and we had a kick ass video. (can we swear on here?) It's just like God's plan for you and me. He has a plan for us whether we like it not and we can be mad, sad, glad, whatever but in the end things happen for a reason, and they work out.
Just like from a previous blog post of mine, nothing is ever final, things can always change. (and from my Lit Narrative) what would you do without an eraser?
