Week 1

This week marks the beginning of this course.  After reviewing the syllabus and course schedule, I was left pondering several things throughout the last couple of weeks.  The main thing on my mind is the $100 challenge.  I have attempted to brainstorm on ideas that I could do to accomplish this project.  I have a few in mind, but the one I keep coming back to is relating this project with my love of photography.  A photography business on the side maybe?  Or something that involves photography and my hobby of graphic design.  I know this is the beginning stages, but I feel like I've got a good start.

We reviewed a list of blogs this week, and were asked to research and discuss several of these blogs.  I found of few blogs that I know will be very helpful in getting started on this journey.  I have found that the same piece of information can be seen several different ways by others.  This is what I find so interesting about the blogging world, and feel like it is a huge opportunity to learn.  I enjoy seeing things from others' perspectives, and blogging is a great way to learn something from various angles.  I find it similar to the BYUI Learning Model.  As long as it is good information, I believe that by learning from several others it will help me learn and retain the information on a deeper level.
