~:[CH7 - Day 6]:~ Using My Time Right

~:[CH7 - Day 6]:~ Using My Time Right
I used a little right hemisphere action, as I was able to use some of my artistic skills. As a teacher, I get some time to do what I enjoy doing when the time comes, but to imagine that I could have been doing this for my entire life, still intrigues me. Regardless, I don't have any plans to leave anytime soon, so in my spare time, I felt like I should begin working on small projects on my own. While I don't enjoy talking to a camera, I felt that if I made short vlogs, I might be able to use my creative-side while also keeping my talking to a minimum. Thus, I created Wat's Up in 60, which is a series of vlogs which will have the main content (excluding intro/credits) run in 60 second intervals with a few videos that will run a few minutes long, which will be referred to as Wat's Up in 60 x 2 (etc).  Hopefully it will be something I can keep up with, as I have been compiling video for the past few years on my various adventures for this purpose. I think in our lifetime, there has been so much emphasis on the academic aspect of things and there is a need for us as educator to ensure that both sides of the brain are used equally. While the myth of the hemispheres of the brain may have been debunked, the reality in life is, we need to balance our lives so we can truly learn, not just what's in a book, but about life, culture, and more. As while it may seem beneficial to gain as much knowledge as possible by studying away, sometimes, the reality is that there is a need for some right time.
