A Whole New Mind, By Daniel Pink
Let's just say that was not a book I was expecting to hear from again.

Because yes, oh yes. I've read it.
Required reading. Senior year High School. AP Art class.
And I have to be honest, I don't remember being super fond of it.
I'M SORRY. It's the truth.
Granted, it was a loooonngg time ago in Lauren years*
And it was Summer reading, so that sure didn't help.

But, I must admit, the clip we just read was actually interesting,
and makes me question my memories of the event.
I'm even seriously considering digging that bad boy out of storage and flipping back through.

Anyway, as part of having to read the book, our AP class also had to make a short video with
examples of each of the sections Pink refers to.
As you might be able to imagine, I wanted no part of this.
NO.
PART.
I stayed as far away as I could.
I'm even quite proud of my efforts.
I only have about three seconds of screen time.
Good job, high school Lauren.
You've made me proud.

Okay, I tried really hard to save this video from Facebook, but I couldn't get it to work. I tried a couple of sites that supposedly could rip it off, and even followed a tutorial on how to use the Google Chrome developer tools to try and get access to the mp4 file, still, no luck. So, I've added the link to the FB video below, and if you're friends with me, you should be able to successfully pull it off.**
And if you're not friends with me=
what's wrong with you**
why aren't you friends with me
why won't you be my friend
why don't you like me
what did I ever do to you

*A "Lauren Year" is an immeasurable amount of time that can either be longer or shorter than the average year on account of my extreme lack of memory coupled with my inability to accurately judge and/or estimate any given length of time.

You're writing style has consistently been one of my favorites to read. There are definitely some texts from my HS reading list that have unfortunately made me avoid returning to certain subjects, and there are videos to prove it...Anyway, thanks for always sharing your very unique perspective!
