Our First Movie Credit

Well, not really.  Last night, we went to a screening of our friends’ documentary, First Generation.  Since we helped to support the film financially, the “thank you” credits included us.  To be honest, it was pretty cool to see our names on the big screen!  Beyond it being fun to watch a movie made by our friends, last night was also a bit worrisome for us with a baby on the way. 

The film focused on college admissions and let’s just say that it is a LOT more difficult to get into a good college than when Kate and I went through the process.  Among other things, the film exposed how unknowledgable some high school staff and parents are on the admissions process. Hopefully, with the ever changing landscape of college admissions and prep courses, Kate and I can stay informed when it is our turn to send our kid(s) to college.

Wow, that was a “I’m getting old” moment. With my 32nd birthday around the corner, it’s time to plant those seeds for the future. Get out and check out this film if you have a chance!
