This week we started looking at our group projects, which for me, was Siddharta by Herman Hesse.

In class this week we watched everyone's "This I Believe" projects! Yay! It was both an uncomfortable and enlightening experience for me. Uncomfortable because I had to listen to my own weird video voice that I had already heard like thirty times, but it wasn't actually that bad.
The best part of this entire project was being able to see the beliefs that are integral to my classmates' ideas of themselves. Like I said before, it's a weirdly enlightening experience. I've known most of these people from elementary school, preschool even, and yet I don't really know them at all. The cool thing is, I can kind of see how these ideas play a part in my classmates' lives. It's retrospective, I know, but it is interesting nonetheless. I thoroughly enjoyed this project not just because it gave me a better understanding of myself, but also because it has helped me develop more empathy towards my peers, something that's invaluable. |
