I think this would be a good opportunity for me to get outside of my comfort zone by getting away from Memphis. It would also be interesting to see how my work would change, moving from the rural to the busy urban life. I am going to try my best to do this because it will be a good experience and will look good on my records. If I do get to go, I will be the first Video major to go from MCA.
