Mission: Vlog

Obviously, I am not so good at this whole blog thing.
I never seem to be consistent in my posts,
My writing is horrible,
and I just can't ever seem to come up with good things to write about.

It took me a year to figure out that I don't have to write a blog in order to share opinions.
I can actually do what I'm good at in order to pass messages along.
That is why I am starting a Vlog.
Documentary film is my favorite form of visual arts, so I am going to (try to) make a weekly vlog of my life, or just life in general, here in Provo.
Now, to some this may seem stupid, but it is actually going to be directed to non-LDS people.
If you have lived, or grown up in Utah as a Mormon, daily traditions that are normal to you, are not anywhere else. Just the way we act here in Provo, is different. I'm not talking in a negative way, I just mean different.

I want to show people that there is no reason to be afraid or hate the Mormon culture. There are some traditions I, myself, disagree with, but that doesn't mean you should hate the people and their intentions.

Some examples of what I want to film are: clothes shopping, dating, family dinner, weeknights, classes at BYU, etc.
It's the little things that make up the culture, and now people can see what the similarities and differences actually are.
