Hello bloggers! My name is Amanda and I am from Essex Junction, VT. I currently live in a condo in Jericho, VT with my boyfriend, Austin and our cat, Kasey. I have loved growing up in Vermont and didn’t want to leave the beautiful state to go to college, which is part of the reason I chose to go to Champlain. I am in my last semester of my senior year and am excited to almost be done!
During this winter break, I found myself encountering many experiences with media. I was sick for most of vacation, which called for a lot of indoor activities such as watching TV, using Facebook and email to communicate with family and friends, and listening to music on my computer.
I enjoy using media in my everyday life. I like that we are able to access so much information so easily in today's culture. I also like the ability to connect and communicate so quickly. This however can become a downside as well, as you tend to lose the personal engagement through communication via texts, email, instant messages, etc. as opposed to speaking on the phone or in person.
I believe media will always be a part of my life not only as entertainment, but also in the work field. I am a graphic design student and see myself working at a design firm focusing on print and web design.
The photo, hyperlink, and video all express more about who I am other than what is written above. I have included a picture of my cat, Kasey. Also, I've posted a video of a movie trailer because I work at a movie theater. The hyperlink goes to AIGA, the professional association of design, because I am a graphic design student.
