I've always been an only child living with two loving, married parents. I never understood what it was like for someone to have divorced parents. A lot of times I hear people say divorced parents cause behavioral problems and depression and even future relationship problems with the children. Here, I interview a young man named Dante who tells how he believes the divorce strengthened his family because his father wasn't good for any of them. He also gives advice for those going through what he once went through.

For my digital story, I set out to find out how the tiring college process went for different people. I also wanted to aim this towards the junior who will soon be going through this same process. I know that a lot of people, including myself struggled with this and so I wanted to capture what it looked like. I did this by interviewing a few seniors and asked them about how it went and what they would suggest for the junior to do. I hope that the audience will be able to think back to the process and feel accomplished if they have successfully passed it and if they have not been through it yet, for them to have a sense of how much work it really is.

My initial goal of this piece was to tell more and find out about what little we knew about the foreign exchange students that we have in SLA's senior class. We are all going to graduate pretty soon and I didn't what there to be any missing pieces and or gap in our memories of a person in SLA. I wanted their stories to be hear and shared to the public.

In this short vlog, I am attempting to show people the music I am creating and how I'm striving to create something different than what the masses expect.
