It's the Climb...and the View is Fantastic

We are almost there! Tomorrow is going to be bittersweet because I want to get this presentation over with, but on the other hand I'm sad that this class and my other, Sociology class, are basically over now. Yes, my classes have had their disappointing days and leaping for joy days, but through those mountain problems that I encountered in my path I feel as though that I have reached the top, and the view from up here is gorgeous! I'm just glad that when I was climbing up that precipice of that mountain. I didn't stop even though I may have slipped off of the hard solid rock and scuffed my knee I kept up my perseverance and there was no turning back. The climb was way worth it! This journey has made new memories and friends along the way. We've learned to help each other out and keep up our determination all of us worked fantastically together. Welcome, to the top... all of the assignments and writing and hard ships... were all worth this view! Breathe it in and feel it. It is “Fantastic!”

Whew, that was CLOSE

So, I went to the Tioga Monday Farmer's Market and did an interview. First, i arrived and when I realized that I didnt know how to work video on my camera I thought okay I will go back home and read the instructions but on the way there and on the way back I was filming practice videos to test the sound and etc. When playing it back on the camera itself you cannot hear the audio but when you hook it up to the computer you can. So, after I discovered that I asked my roomate to go with me to hold the camera while I ask the questions and just to be safe I used my cell phone as a tape recorder :) BUT (doom, doom, doom) after my interview I had to go to the Verizion store to replace my phone that was malfunctioning. The guy exchanged my phone with a new one, transferred all my contacts and pictures over and I left......well on the way home I realized that my project was on that phone that was scheduled to be shipped off in the morning :( so I had to call the store back and by the way I sat on hold for about 15-20 minutes BUT I was NOT hanging up whatsoever......I HAD TO STOP THEM FROM SENDING MY PHONE BACK!!!! Finally a representative answered and I told him what had happened and it was SO nice of him to hold my phone until today when I was able to go and transfer my interview from the old phone to the exchanged one. CLOSE CALL, WHEW.
