Mutant centipedes...

SO...yesterday's class...We got more practice interpreting random things from youtube today. Apparently you can find a video about just about anything on the web now. Who knew? People have a lot of time on their hands. I think one of the good things from the second video was that it used a powerpoint in the instruction. Like April said, more and more teachers are utilizing the technology and we have to adapt to it. Even though it can probably sometimes complicate things more, I think in general it will be a good resource for our interpreting if we do come across it in a setting. Sometimes we get completely lost or off the topic and it could be a way to get us back to where we should be with our message.

BUT...while I like the concept of a computer class powerpoint, I have found that I do everything from my point of view. Apparently I haven't gotten the concept of really switching things yet. Again, I'm supposed to feel a little better about the fact that I at least know that it's something I do but...really? How am I supposed to feel better if I only know my problems but can't fix them? How do I fix them??? Okay, at least I know they're there. Work on them and practice fixing them...okay. I feel like I need to reprogram myself sometimes. Start all over and learn again. But no, I must keep what little I know and keep adding.

That's all I will write for now. Except I will say that on a totally irrelevant subject, I had a mutant centipede in my bathtub yesterday when I got home. That's right ladies and gentlemen, I did say a mutant centipede. Oh, imagine the possibilities that a mutant centipede could do with a zillion legs in an interpreting assignment. What picture you could create and how many things could you set up in space and keep there when you have a zillion legs to work with. Would it only be interpreting for one other mutant centipede or a bunch of them since you have so many legs? ...Hmm.....
