Documentaries


I love my job! I love the fact that while I'm working my bosses don't mind if I have a tv show or a movie going...as long as I get my work done, which I do. So recently I've been really into documentaries online. I love them! I love learning about new things and people and places. I love having my thinking challenged everyday. Sometimes I think I know exactly how I feel about something, but then I watch a documentary on it and it causes me to rethink things. Everything from factory workers in China to the state of the health care in this country to diets to Hiroshima, I watch them all. One of my favorite sites is PBS frontline. They've got some great stuff on there! The website is http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/view/. I don't really expect you to sit down and watch all of these, most people don't have the time. But I love that I have 8 hours a day to just sit and learn while I'm working. Another good site is http://freedocumentaries.net/. Try just turning them on in the back ground while you're cooking or cleaning or something. You won't be disappointed!!
