A day in the life (Jordan)

​A day in Jordan

THIS IS A WORST CASE SCENARIO 

My life and there life is quite different. I don't have to worry about having to worry about having to struggle for getting my food or even being able to go to school each day. I have always been able to attend school and some of these kids don't have that privilege. It would bother me that i had to go out every day as a kid working extremely hard to get food, and than coming home and having to cook or eat a meal with what ever i could find. Plus they are always being checked for diseases so that would affect me to always thinking i could potentially have a disease of some sort.     

Great Pacific Garbage Patch

TO READ MORE ON THE GARBAGE PATCH CLICK THIS !!!


a. What went well? 

i think that me and my group members did a fine job of working together and collabrating. i like how we were real on point with meeting the dead line for things. everyone completed their part just as they were supposed to. we also all had fun learning about the garbage patch. 

b. What did not? the only thing that i didn't like was we waited 

till like that last three or four days till it was due to get started so we were working harder than we needed to and if we would have stared when it was given then we would have not had that feeling but we did get it completed and sill did a good job so we were happy about that.  

c. What would you do differently next time?

we would just start on time that way were not rushing and stressing. 

Hospital Files

90 minutes in a tube that I had no room to lift my head in. Loud disturbing noises. Luckily I'm not claustrophobic. But I am overly anxious. 

Of Dreams And The Middle Aged Count Kind Enough To Explain Them

I was told that if you dream of blood, you will have good luck but if you dream of losing a tooth, then a death, be it yours or someone elses', will occur somewhat soon. I dreamed I grew mustache and decided to spend the rest of my days blowing up trains. (The trains I chose to destroy were made of balloons and met their demise at the end of a toothpick I whittled* using wood from the peg leg of a flamboyant pirate. He sang as I whittled. I miss him in my conscious state.) I do not know what this dreams means but I kept all my teeth.



* Fun Fact: To widdle is to urinate. I discovered this after misspelling whittle.  I hoped you enjoyed it.

Q4 Art Pieces

One of the assignment that we had to do was to create a sculpture. I chose ​to make a duct tape wallet. At first, I thought it was hard but, it really wasn't. The materials that I used were duct tape,a ruler, a heavy book, and a highlighter. [It doesn't matter what type of pen you have] One of the problems I had making this wallet was the measurements. For an example, the cutting wasn't straight so as the duct tape decreases, the less of a chance I can actually put money in there. For future reference, I would measure it a quarter of a inch more than it should be so if I make any mistakes, it's easy to fix. Overall, this took me about an hour. So it wasn't as hard as I thought.

The next assignment that we had to do was to edit pictures in Photoshop. I'm pretty good at Photshop but not as much as I want to be. In these pictures, all I did was change the color levels, color balance, curves, focus on one part of the picture, etc. I didn't have a hard time doing this because it was just me playing around with the application and trying to create a better contrast picture.

A duplicate art piece by me. It was difficult for me to draw and paint this at first but as soon I started to get the rhythm, I was able to do it smoothly. The reason why I chose this art piece is because it drew my attention. I decided to paint the side of the house red because I didn't think you could see the white, but it turns out that you could. So I couldn't change it back to white. My colors in my drawing are a lot lighter than the original because I didn't have those dark water colors. All in all, it was kind of hard to draw this piece because you had to get the right measurements in order for it to look proportional.

And tonight is...

"There once was pirate named Gold Roger, who was the King of the Pirates.
He had fame, power and wealth beyond your wildest dreams.
Before they hung him from the gallows, these were the final words he said.
"My fortune is yours for the taking, but you'll have to find it first. I left everything I own in One Piece.
Ever since, pirates from all over the world set sail for the Grand Line searching for One Piece the treasure that will make their dreams come true."

Shrine

Whatever Freda posts don't believe it. All her information is false.

Day in the Life of a Marshallese 12-Year-Old

​Here is my project

When I was 12, my day from 7:00am-2:00am was about the same. The only difference was that I was taking SEPTA to school rather than walking. When I came home, I didn't have to pick coconuts or go sell fishes I had just caught, I would just have to clean my room, and maybe sweep the house. However, when I turned 13, I started helping my father with his business a couple times per week. I stopped attending church when I was about ten, and those are the main differences in our day to day lives.

I expected most of the poverty I saw while I was researching because most indigenous people are on the lower end of their new societies. I didn't expect the boys and girls to have equal schooling opportunities from first grade to high-school. The poor children usually don't make it to high-school, but there is no real difference between boys and girls.

There are no real opportunities for indigenous children of the Marshall Islands. In order for a child's education to continue past eighth grade, they need to pay for school. The indigenous population usually can't afford to send their children to high-school, so they stay at home and their lives turn into whatever their mother/fathers life is. Eventually the male will choose a wife from another tribe (usually a distant cousin) and the cycle of life will continue.

I Love You

​I'm the girl who would run to the street and dance in endless circles as the rain poured down. I wouldn't think twice about the fact that it's cold, I could catch pneumonia, I look a mess or that the world looks at me as crazy. I love the rain, but I would never wish it upon you. I'm the girl that cries through everything, anger, sadness, happiness, love, but I would never wish for any warm tears to fall from your eyes regardless of the cause. If parts of my skin become blue and purple than it's just another day living the life of a klutz and I enjoy the pretty colors that mark up the paleness of my skin because it means that I did something and had a laugh (yes I laugh at my own physical pain sometimes), but I would destroy the table that left a bump on your head even though you're the one that hit the table. If I get hit by someone that found a reason to use physical force because of a disagreement, I would accept it and walk away to avoid anymore conflict, but if you were to be hurt by anyone they would cower away from even the slightest of my touches because everyone fears the fires of hell. The world can turn against me, but as long as I have you by my side I'm where I want to be. As for you, if you should ever need me I'll never be more than a phone call, a hug, a tear, a heartbeat away.
