30 Days Documentaries
Answer to Last Week’s Question: Amway sells a variety of products, from cosmetics to cooking ware, but the majority of the products are related to the cosmetics industry.
One cannot help but wonder while we are viewing the 30 Days documentaries in class whether or not they would be able to submit themselves to the same challenges and come out a better person, or, at the very least, a changed person. I think it is these same motives that push me to become a foreign correspondent. I think that on some level I hope to test myself, to throw myself into the fray and experience something entirely exotic and, at times, traumatic, because then and there, when human emotions are stretched to the breaking point, just as in the 30 Days documentaries, that is where the really fascinating stories are found. Looking back, I find that this fact seems to have dictated what I plan study in college more so than anything else, except perhaps my passion for writing. Ultimately, I hope to become so completely immersed in another culture, through both language and customs, that I will be able to write the stories that another English speaking journalist would not have been able to.
It is this life that I wish to assume, that of a reporter, a storyteller for humanity. As one, I may not change the world, but at least I will bring back a part of it to those who cannot experience all of it for themselves. I will bring the truth, raw and undiluted, to those who have become lost in fiction.
