Inspiration Round Robin

The thing that really inspires me the most is seeing people work through adversity.  I find nothing more powerful than when a group of people (from different backgrounds and cultures...etc), work together for the common good of something.  Like when a natural disaster happens or some other devastating event and people from all over come together to fight for one cause.  Thats what really inspires me.

This class was a bit different than others.  I didnt really get much from it, mainly because I didn't put much thought into who I am. I think most people probably don't know exactly who they are.  For me I feel like that is the lifelong struggle.

Who the Hell Do I Think I Am?

Fro this assignment I chose to make a pot of white chili.  The chili symbolizes a ton of different ingredients that make me what I am today.  Some of the ingredients are not good to eat by themselves, but once they are all in the pot together the outcome is much more pleasing.  So I look at the person I am to day as someone who has lots of traits, some good some bad. Overall though, I am pleased with just being. I don't exactly know who I am but I know I pleased with myself either way.

The field trip to Heron was fun.  The exhibit we viewed was interesting for a short time, but after a while the music became somewhat annoying.  I understand that this type of thing qualifies as art, but I have a hard time caring.  I'm really just not that into this type of art.

What Is It?

I think the point of this assignment is possibly to show the ways that people interpret thing differently.  Some people may think an image to look like one thing, while others may see something totally different.

At first when Beth told us that we didn't have come to class on this date, I thought "no way! I'm definitely not coming!"  But as the days went by I realized that I actually wanted to be in class.  The reason being that I knew that topic of God would be a very interesting debate.  As I predicted, some people were very opinionated and not there with an open mind.  It's odd how some people seem to be open minded about many things in life except God.  Is it because they would think of themselves as weak if someone makes a valid point about God and it actually changes their beliefs?

Wow, this class was very emotional for me.  Anyways, one of the prjects i really liked was Blair's.  I think it was a very simple idea but the actual fear that created by having an unknown substance inside of a bunch of plastic bags turned out to be very complex.
