Tiff's Thoughts on the past Deux Days (alliteration!)

Today is the second full day of my BAMMA experience. Everyday is honestly flying by like bam bam bam. There is so much to learn in so little time, but thankfully I'm having a pretty good time. When I joined BAMMA I did expect my experience to be something like boarding school taught by people as strict as nuns however so far my assumptions have been wrong. I was really excited to take the short training on using a SLR camera today. Watching and hearing Ali talking about his own photo capturing experience makes me even more determined to decipher the complicated (or maybe not) exposure triangle.
Last night Natasha and I filmed each other doing the craziest stunts. I performed hand stands, attempted to do tumbles and finally sang to I Believe I Can Fly. This training is seriously multimedia and multi-exhausting ( I know it's not a word. NO SPELL CHECK :) and it is only the second day!
When we worked on our stories, I actually thought that I would do very well especially since I am familiar with topic. So far I have one interview down and I hope that I will get more. This is a very important topic no matter how many times in the last few years the issue has showed up on a news site because very little is being done.
So to sum the last two and a half days up, I'm glad I joined BAMMA so far, I hope there will be less DRAMA, I hope no one on our team will have to leave the program, I'm determined to explore photography when I return home and I'm excited to read more about Wiretap magazine and I'm anxious about my story. Good Night!
