Since we didn't do much in class today, I'm just going to write about what we have talked about so far. I'm still waiting to learn more about this unit, because the whole talk about the maps being wrong, and us never fixing it just blows my mind. So it will be interesting to see what else Mr. Schick has in store. Speaking of Mr. Schick, we learned that he was apart of the making in "Home Alone" and Uncle Buck." I would definitely be interested in joining his TV production classes. I have some questions. Does it take place like a real class? When is it? Do I have to be in a certain grade to take it? If you could answer these, that would be great! I think it's crazy that some people already know what they want to do when they ar eolder, especially when adults ask us because I have no idea.

This makes me a little more relaxed because it might be able to tell me if this is where I should go with my future career.
