​To me I think I even heard the word for the first. I was unfamiliar with this but when Miss Hull assigned us to do this then I google this to know how does it look like. Sugar skull is actually the number of cultural phenomena and it is basically associated with Mexican events like Dead day and Roman Catholic day. I think you can describe your feelings emotions or happiness by making this and by creating different designs. It was not too difficult for me to choose this design because I love flowers so I decided to make its eyes like flowers and then I made flowers on head that aslo represent that I like flowers. It was fun while doing this in the whole class watching others faces and skulls. So I enjoyed this a lot.

1. Explain in your own words what a sugar skull is. - A sugar skull is a decorated skull, often made out of sugar, that is used as decorations in celebrations. 

2. Explain how you came up with the design for your mask/skull.- When we first got this project, I looked up sugar skulls on google images to see what they usually looked like. From this I got the idea for my design. I tried to make it similar to the traditional looking ones, but also how I wanted it. 

3. Explain the process from beginning to the end, the process that you went from having   no mask to having a finished and painted mask.- First I designed my skull. Then I helped someone else plaster their face. When doing this I realized that the plaster made my skin break out. Because of that, I did not plaster my own face, but used someone else’s. After I had my skull, I waited a day for it to dry and then painted it with my design. 

Below are pictures of my mask, the design, as well as some other work from this quarter. 

The drawing of the girl is based of of this.

To me, a sugar skull is a creation to adorn and celebrate the life of someone who is deceased. Sugar skulls are from the Mexican celebration on the Day Dead, which is a national holiday. It’s main focus is to get family and friends together and remember the loved ones who have died. Sugar skulls are brought to graves of children as well as toys. They are gifts for both the living and the dead, made usually from granulated white sugar, icing and other decorative accessories. They are edible but are normally used as decoration. 

The decorations of a sugar skull are to represent how you feel or felt about the loved one or just to make something so ugly as death be beautiful. I thought about the death of my father as I decorated my skull. I decided that I only wanted to remember the good things about my dad, which I incorporated into the mask by using bright colors and  and images such as hearts, peace signs, flowers and smiley faces. My father was a really peaceful man although very cautious and would keep himself and his loved ones safe at any cost. 

The process of making this particular sugar skull wasn’t too time consuming but it was a very tedious process. First I had to find a person who would let me use their face as a base. Then I had to tediously apply plaster over their face, trying to capture the full figure of their face so that when the plaster dried it would actually look like a skull. 

​

Sugar Skulls are made up a sugary base, and decorated with color icing. It is also used in the spanish cultures, to respect the dead. I research many Sugar Skulls, I notice the difference between the traditional ones verses the "americanized" ones. My design is a mixture of both. It explains the pain within the grieve with the red tears. I plastered the models face, let it harden. Then later painted the mask. 





                                            





                                             

My L.A.N

This is my home network. My L.A.N uses  Wifi. We have 2 phones connected our network, as well as 1 tablet, 2 laptops, 1 printer and 1 Wii. They all are connected to the wifi. 

OMG!

My OMG! moment was when I how the inter/ethernet works. I never knew so much goes on in a tiny little box. Also, when I learned how much work it takes just to go to a webpage. Knowing that there is a cable running underwater throughout the world carrying around credential information is very intriguing. 

Others should know..

What I believe that other people should know about their inter/ethernet is that anyone can connect to your bandwidth and run your bills up the wall, so locking it is the safe way to go. With no passcode lock protection, random people will use your network without caring about your bill.
