10 Things You Know If You Are a BCA Major
http://departementcamera.tv/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/DEP_Photo_06-optimized.jpg

1. You live in Moore Hall

Moore isn't just a place for classes, it is a place for studying, late night projects, hanging out with friends..etc. Basically, you should have your mail forwarded there. Everything you could possibly need is contained within Moore, and you wouldn't have it any other way.


2. You analyze movies and TV Shows

Watching TV and or Movies isn't the same anymore. You watch reality TV and just know that the producer is telling them what to do. It's a lie. It's all a lie.


3. You still don't really know how to run the TD Board in Anspach

Okay, like, I understand what each button does, but sometimes I click a few buttons at once, and something happens, and somehow we are on camera 3. We were really trying to just get to Camera 1, I swear. Then we will jump around and go across Camera 2, back to Camera 3, then finally land on Camera 1, when the next shot is not Camera 1. It's fine, we all still did pretty well in 220.


4. You say things like:

"I shot that!" "I forgot my adaptor" "I forgot my headphones" "I left my flash drive in the computer again" "My voice sounds weird" "Want to be in my video?"

5. You can write Ad's like nobody's business.

I know how to write a tag line in my sleep. What audience are we catering to? Middle aged women? I've got this.


6. You are kind of sick of Social Media

Like yeah, we all got our personal ones, but after a class of sitting and learning how things are trending, and example after example, it can get repetitive.


7. You get singled out at job fairs, and it's fantastic


You go to Central Michigan? How do you like the program? I've heard it's one of the best in the Midwest! Can I keep this Resume?


8. You get to meet cool people


Connections connections connections. If you've had an internship, worked on MHTV, either of the radio stations, or even on late night projects, you know that sometimes the coolest people, are those that are working on the same things as you.


9. We have some pretty amazing alumni.


News anchors, actors, musicians, Larry Joe Campbell, and hey even Tim Allen, was part of our program for a semester.


10. We are all a big BCA family.

You need an adaptor? I got you. Yeah, you can interview me for a project! I know, I don't get how to put this portfolio together either. What even is this?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
