I went to the writing lab today. At first I was way stoked because the tutors really liked my paper. But I was really humbled as i thought about all the different people who helped me on it. I really have a lot of help at my disposal.
I also recently had an interview with my peer mentor. She's great. I can't imagine all the stuff she goes through for us. Thanks Jolysa!

Teh Hula
I was sitting eating dinner at my friend Corryn's house (Dominos Pizza, even though we did our best to pick it up from papa john's . . . ) When I remembered my assignment to teach three people the hula. I mentioned it to them, meaning to imply that I needed to leave early in order to find three people to teach. Instead, Corryn's mom told me to teach it to her family, she wanted to watch. So we all stood up there in the kitchen and did the Hula. Even her dad did it!
It was awesome to feel so free and at ease with people. They are a great family.

Scheduling, Learning, and Humility
Our assignments for this week were A.) Fill out the planner we recieved from Freshman Academy using our recently obtained syllabus... es... or... syllabi... and B.) Read and mark "A Child of God" by Henry B. Eyring.
It was nice to be assigned to fill out the schedule, because had it been left up to me I would never have done it. It would always be lurking somewhere in the back of my mind, along with all the due dated for assignments. This way, it's just lurking on my desk, all filled out, and all the due dates are lurking inside it. How lovely! (I took a picture, and will add it when I develop it)
"A Child of God" was exactly what I needed to hear. It helped me realize that I need to get off my prideful education horse and and really start to learn. I felt prompted to add a class I've been debating, thinking I don't want the extra homework. I felt the spirit strongly as I read it.

Purpose
The purpose of the Unprocessed Personage Symposium is to document my experience in Fresh Man Seminar.
I want to do mostly Photography, but since I will be using film, I will not be able to post a new photograph as often as I am required to, so I will be doing a combination of video, photo, drawing, writing, and maybe even the occasional song and dance, all referred to under the collective noun "Blog-"
So that's the purpose yo.
I hope you like it.
I hope you read it.
I hope you go to International Cinema.
I hope you don't do drugs.
