My Name, My Story
To start off the year, students were to create a short (2 minute) video about their identity; specifically on a certain struggle that shaped them to who they are now. These videos ranged from humor to seriousness yet each video conveyed the student's own style.
As my struggle, I chose to do shyness. When I was a child I was very shy and seldomed talk to anyone. Once, my brother came along, though, I became independent and entering High Tech increased my independency even more. Now, my shyness has mostly ceased but if it hadn't been for my brother and the school I had gone, I would've most likely still be the way I was.
It was hard presenting my struggle because I felt so vulnerable. For two whole minutes everyone was absorbing my life story which made my quite uncomfortable. However, we were all vulnerable together.

Below you can access my video on my shyness. I did text narration with music instead of audio narration.
