It's my last videoblogging class video. This vlog though, it's really been a wonderful experience -- so I think I'll keep it going. My video camera officially stinks, so I think I'll have to invest in a new one sometime soon. Either that or find someone who fixes cameras.... but really, is there such a thing as a consumer level camera repair shop?
I'm rambling. Michael Hyde, another one of my vlogging classmates, found me making bongo beats in garageband as I tried to make the last class-induced post and said "hey, I have a camera let's talk". Thus this video's rambling. but, I hope you enjoy and i'll see you in vloggersville.

Its not just unattractive. It absolutely, positively, will kill you. Please stop smoking, for your own sake. Life is already too short!
in bethany's defense, I have to tell you she's not really a smoker...she was just having a stressed out moment. bongo's in garageband, a broken video camera, a fiance on a 16 hour flight and finals will do that to ya. In fact, I made fun of her pretty extensively for not actually knowing how to smoke at all. she really sucks at it. I'm sure bethany will have a long and attractive life, and hopefully we'll get a few glimpses of it, eh?
Oh Bethany, please don't leave us. I'm still working on a video response for you, and now that my semester is also over, we have more time to dialogue! Stay, please. The vlogosphere needs you.
Is it at all flattering that it took me a month or two to figure out that you were doing this for school? You're a natural. Keep telling stories! (like who knew you were engaged?!)
I liked this piece a lot better than Cartwheels. In Cartwheels you had an idea and you developed it, but you didn't really offer the viewer much besides an experiment in style and sound. I suppose Wawawa was also an experiment, albeit somewhat more interesting.
So in Reflecting you got back to what you do best -- unvarnished Bethany. You're not trying to be entertaining or funny or interesting or pretty -- you're not posing at all, and that works. Even the smoking is great.
Rodents, Visit, and Frustrated -- they're all very good because you're not trying. While in Dancing you're being amusing, and that gets in the way.
Anyway, this is turning into an essay. Keep posting if you can.
Oh, one more thing. Since you mention Irene's vlog, you should give us an obvious link.
You just jumped a hurdle in videoblogging by making the "I'm spinning in a circle" video.
I hope you get a camera soon so you can continue videoblogging. I know the stress of being separated and coming back together. It's exciting but terribly hard...
I like your personality.
A videoblogging class? what? WHAT?
I need to attend.
