Reflection

This year art was easily my favorite class. And I must admit that it's partially because it's a break from the stress of other classes. But the real main reason is because I liked throwing random things out of my head. Usually when I do this, it ends up becoming metaphysics. But this provided an outlet that was a breath of fresh air.

This year went by very quickly. Most of it's just a blur of tests and people talking. But I always enjoy the memories of art class. I think that this was the only real part of the school year I enjoyed. From the bike drawing to the final book, I've decided to think art isn't about getting better. It's about being able to not be afraid to show what's bouncing around in your mind.

In conclusion, I'm quite glad I chose this class, as it not only helped me grow as a person. But I also am glad to have made this blog. I wasn't so sure about it at first, but now I'm glad I did it now.

Le Box.

So the idea of this project was to make a time capsule and place items in it. The objects we chose were meant to reflect us as a person at this stage in life. Let's get this started by listing some items and their purpose.

Fortune Cookie: This was a requirement for our box and I like the idea. We aren't going to open it until we open the box.
Physics Joke: As this blog most likely mentioned before, I love physics. So it only seems proper that there should be a physics reference in here.
A Rock: Ok there's more story here than just a rock. One day, some obscure company was putting these ads out on people's steps. They used rocks to hold them to the ground. I picked one up and decided to take it. That one turned into two, which turned into three... And so on until I had seven. So I chose the one I liked best and placed it in there. It reminds me what fun it is to have some, well, fun every once in a while. I'm not going to be a kid forever, so I guess I'm supposed to enjoy it now.
Me' Bloody Grade: This is an art grade I got back, but then I accidentally got my blood on it from I can't remember where, I believe a paper cut.
