Watching my classmates video presentations was a surprising experience. Sometimes we do not realize that those sitting next to us have a totally different life, then expected. Everyone expects (mostly) for the person beside them to have a similar story as themselves, weather it is being a freshman in college or the first to attend college; everyone has a different lifestyle. Watching the video presentations of some of my classmates, made me realize how crazy life can be. From Chris’s presentation, I was able to learn that he was a triplet, and that all his siblings are attending college. The fact that I have sat next to Chris and actually worked in class together all semester and did not know that he was a triplet was so surprising. Another surprising presentation was Johan’s, yes I knew prior to watching the video that he was married but not that he has a child. It was inspiring watching Johan, as he demonstrated that he not only is a student, a husband, and employee but also a father. The fact that many classmates, have stories that no one would imagine was crazy, it made the experience of class so much more connecting. If I had to decide on who’s presentation was my favorite, I would have to say Chris ( The other Chris). Why? Because he was able to demonstrate, both school and work. Showing and being an example of a healthy balance. He was able to demonstrate how his first year of college has been, and how working at home has made the process difficult but worth the wild.
