MISSION▪X SUMMARY Dylan White
My main project this trimester was my sports talk show. I also tried many other things, but some of them did not work as well as the others.
The first thing that I tried was a blog on WordPress.com. It was going to feature my opinions on many articles from my favorite sports-news website, Bleacher Report. When I first started the blog, I learned a very valuable lesson. I had been working on my first review, and it was turning out really well. I kept the work-in-progress as a saved draft on WordPress, but when I came back to work on it one day, the draft was gone. I blamed myself for the loss of the post, because it was my first-ever blog, and I had probably not saved it correctly.
After that happened, I was told that it was smart to keep my unpublished words on a Google Document or on Microsoft Word. I did this, and it was a lot better because I could keep a constant word count, and it would save. After this happened, I realized that I didn’t want to continue writing in my blog.
I then decided to change what I was doing, and I started to write scripts for a new show I created. It’s called Chillin With Dylan. I chose that name because it was one of the only verbs that rhyme with my name, and “chillin with Dylan” kind of makes sense.
I wrote three scripts for it, and I filmed one show. The episode was about 7 minutes long, and the scripts are about two pages long each. A couple weeks after the midterms, I switched from my show to another blog, which I have a rough-draft entry.

Use the Camp week as much as possible to pick something that you really want to do.
