How I did it: I decided to go with the youtube way of watching it because I only own TWoO on VHS and I don't own Dark Side of the Moon (yet). I watched it late at night by myself. It was a weird way to watch a movie that is naturally very upbeat. It kind of changes the way you view The Wizard of Oz. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I've been drawing since I was little and now I'm working to become an illustrator, but being able to draw is wonderful. It takes practice, practice, practice!

As graduation gets closer, I am scared.
I really hope I find a job that does make me happy.
