I'm pregnant with a documentary
So while sitting at work today I started to think about all of things that I would rather be doing right now. And I had this great idea, that since I've already done so much research on subprime mortgages and securitization I should do a documentary on it. So I email my mom and tell her my idea and she thinks its a brilliant idea, I email my friend who is also an economics major and he thinks its an amazing idea, he emails his friend who is a journalism major and he wants to be a part of it, and in a mere 4 hours my little fantasy snowballs. And now I'm scared, but somehow I know my fear is a sign that I should go through with this. I'm scared because this is the kind of project where I have full responsibility, whether it flies or flops. There are other things that I could do this summer, i could get a nice secure research job. But this is something that I really want to do, and I know how disappointed I will be if it doesn't work out. Its like I'm pregnant with a documentary, and I'm afraid of having a miscarriage.
