The question left me in silence for awhile. A whole new experience and lesson I got in Ball State University shapes me into a critical thinker. So I decided to make a list of what should I do for this upcoming programme:
Preparing myself mentally and physically
I am shy when it comes to talking to new people. It takes time for me to analyse the situation before I could mingle and get in the crowd. While this assignment forces us to communicate to strangers and or Americans who are celebrating the independence day, I am preparing myself to be confident and get ready to interview them.
Preparing the main theme
The theme of the story is the core thing I have to think and re-think before I get involved in the event. The theme is what determines the story whether it will turn out to be a good story or not.
Preparing the questions
In order to interview the people who are celebrating the Independence Day, I need to have some questions ready to help me produce a good story I will later post after the event and to avoid an awkward gesture which indicates I am not a pro interviewer.
After I get all these things tick and done, a pro interviewer is hopefully ready to get involved in the Independence Day.
Just the fact that you've thought this through so much should augment your confidence, Amelia! I hope you settled on a specific theme for your interviews & eventual story.
