One Week
D: Michael McGowan (2008)

	One Week traces the story of Ben Tyler (Joshua Jackson), a thirty-something teacher who learns he has a terminal disease.  Ben’s diagnosis leads to a realization of things unfinished, and he begins a cross-country journey to discover all that he can from life before it is too late.
	Along the way, Ben captures highlights of this journey with snapshots of significant people, locales, and icons.  “What would you do if you knew you only had one day, or one week, or one month to live?  What lifeboat would you grab on to? What secret would you tell? What band would you see? What person would you declare your love to? What wish would you fulfill? What exotic locale would you fly to for coffee? What book would you write?”
	Create your own book which focuses on a range of your highlights to date.  Include at least 6-10 pages (minimum one picture and brief explanation per page), leaving extra pages for those highlights yet to come.  Include a title page with a unique title and graphic.  Incorporate maps, stickers, souvenirs etc. into your book.  You might also focus on those areas / adventures you HOPE to visit or experience in the coming years.
