An Interest in Interests

For our meeting in the Arboretum.

Read the article at:

Then, in addition to the normal journal response (answering the questions), write me a page about something that interests you. I want you to focus the “tell me about yourself” question on a specific topic, hobby, or activity that you enjoy. You should have a relatively good understanding of this activity. It can be anything, but keep in mind this is going to be what we talk about in our conference on Thursday. This journal should help you prepare. Consider the guidelines outlined in the article. Your topic should be something you enjoy (passion), it should be something you know a lot about (value), you should allow your unique perspective on the topic to come out (personality), and your ideas should be condensed and organized enough that they fit our four minute conference window with enough time left over for me to ask you any questions I might have (brevity & openness).
Have fun with the assignment.

Also, if you did not finish the view finder assignment, make sure you bring that for me as well.
