Project selection

I did not want to work on some project that I wouldn't look back on with pride. My bachelor of arts major is in cree language literacy. After this, I plan to apply for the distance MLIS program with the University of Alberta. I want this project to be meaningful, and to use it as an example of dedication to language revitalization.

I've decided to skip my idea wall in my cubicle.

I am going to have a conversation with my dad in Cree. I will figure out the format to ensure it complies with the project expectations and evaluation.

He lives in Ile a la Crosse. When I was a kid, he would talk on the phone with his friends in rapid fire cree, and I never paid attention. He always spoke cree. He still does. While I learned cree and michif in elementary school, I have never learned enough to have a meaningful conversation with him. This would fulfill a goal of mine, sooner rather than later. 

I am planning a trip home next pay day.
