Hi,
Since this will be the first post in this compulsory blog which i am gladly doing, I might as well start it with the introduction of who I am and what will be in this blog.
My name is Jason Hendriks, I am 18 years old, I am an International Student from the biggest archipelago; Indonesia, and I am taking Bachelor of Communications (Media)
I like reading, watching movies, and I like to take pictures. I am interested in global politics, but I haven’t understand all the conundrums that’s happening right now, so throw me some rock-hard facts and news if you’d like, and i’ll catch it with bulging scars thank you.
Why am I taking this degree? Simply because I am interested in it. Media is one of the fastest growing industry. If you’re a teenager living in a developed world and you’re still using a Nokia 3310, you’re either a dedicated hipster, or you’re just awesome.
This blog, my blog, will be focus mostly about reflection, opinions, interactions, investigations, and any other productive activities ending in -ions (including production)
The perky sir Brian Morris, my Media 1 lecturer, asked us about our goals in doing this degree. I did not manage to figure all 10, so i’ll just point out what i’ve got :
- I want to be able to see and share what’s important. I want to meet people who are interested in the same subjects as I am, get inspired and them, and share what I know to the people around me.
- I want to create a content that is either informative or entertaining, and I want to be able to use, and befriend the applications that will get me through the degree
- Editing is like playing a game with a mega-super-hardcore-impossible level, but it’s very rewarding when you’ve finished it.
- I want to use my skill to help others. there’s no explanation for that.
Honestly I do not know what type of work I want to be doing after I finish this degree, but like John Kuypers said, “Each of us is the best we can be when we are fully present, focused yet relaxed, curious yet non-judgmental, committed yet flexible.”
Maybe I don’t agree with the “focused yet relaxed” part with him.
Hoping to be able to know others and have fun doing so.
