How does our class help you with life lessons?

For this week's blog topic, I'd like you to think about our class and all that we have to do within the school year.  Think of all of your responsibilities, opportunities, and the many things that are learned.  I'd like you to write about three specific things that this class has helped you with outside of our class.  For example, if you want to say that media has taught you how to edit in FCP X, well, how has that helped you OUTSIDE of this class?  Do you now edit videos for your church, other classes, or in scouting?  How have you taken what you've learned in media and applied it to other areas of your life?  List at least three things AND explain how they have helped in these other areas.
