Jeff Emond

Jeff Emond is a person that I met at the beginning of the year in my journalism class. When I first talked to him, he struck me as a rather interesting human being. As the year progressed and I got to know him better, I began to learn that he is a very philosophical person. Jeff is so philosophical, in fact, that his philosophies have just become a part of his daily language. I guess now after talking to him more and more I have become used to it, but for someone first meeting him, they may find him to be maybe too philosophical. He also likes Johnny Cash. A LOT! That is all I need to say about Jeff for the time being.

Design

I really don't know what to expect when we start our lesson on design pretty soon. I have a feeling that it will either go great or terribly wrong. I have never thought of myself as someone who would be good with design, but who knows, maybe I will be good at it. The one thing that I am looking forward to is probably just learning about all the different features and things that can be used to design something. I guess I have always been sort of curious about how magazines and yearbooks turn out the way they do, but I guess this is my chance to learn. Hopefully, the design lesson won't be too challenging.

Photography

I kind of had mixed emotions about the photography portion of the class. When I find and capture a picture that is really cool, then I like photography. When I don't like it is when I get really frustrated trying to get a good picture when it just is turning out right. I don't really think that my career is going to have anything to do with photography, but I guess you never really know. It is still probably a good thing that I learned about it though since it may come in handy at some point in my life.
