Photo Essay
Working at a Pharmaceutical company has its rewards. Whether it be staring upon gigantic machinery, small process machinery, test tubes, experiments, or maybe even just meeting some great people.
Here is a closer up picture of the gigantic cooling machinery used for the GMP plant. It looks large in this picture, but in person it is simply gigantic.
One of several chemical fume hoods through out all of Arena's eight buildings. This is where the entire process starts. It then eventually gets to the GMP level later on down the road.
I'm holding a pipette that someone used for a chemical substance. I have no idea whether that substance is hazardous to me or not, thus why I put on a glove to hold it. Seems like a waste of a glove, but its is crucial, and necessary for my safety and the safety of others. I have no idea what became of the substance used.
The basics are the most important for safety. Simply safety features like safety showers and eye wash stations are completely necessary, for safety and for regulations reasons. Without them, people might become blind, or suffer horrible skin damage; Arena would also face many fines for going against regulations.

Semester TWO: Blog four
My Personal goals for Ampersand are that I write an article that I can have fun with, that I'm proud of. I've written a lot of essays, captions, creative stories; I would love to finally be really proud of what I write. I hope this is a fun experience for all, and I will do my best to achieve that. I would also love to see Ben, Constance, Dani, and I to be part of an Art directing portion of the book. I believe that we can all freely express ideas with each other and the class and it will be successful.

I think the editing of the text/transcripts is a huge thing. For my first link I picked a very interesting interview for the substance of the interviewee and also that it was not revised into a very interesting read. The second is very easy to read, flows easily, and is interesting, (mostly, because it's Clint Eastwood.) Being able to form that basic interview transcript into a Rolling Stone level interview is hard, but well worth the time and effort.
These finals pieces are just revised and edited writing formed into a story of some sort more than just a conversation. You can't write have this same story again, while you might be able to have the same conversation.
