As I mentioned two posts ago, I went home again last weekend. This trip was..... yeah. There was much discussion surrounding this trip. Some members of the family (who shall remain nameless ;) ) were concerned about said bus and its safety. Basically, it was a great trip home (the bus ride was fine!), the event that I returned for was successful, and the return trip was nice as well. The only bothersome thing on the bus was the rather loud rap that a lady 3 rows in front of us was playing..... we could hear every word, even though the earbuds were in her ears! Anywho, I'd recommend the Megabus for return trips home :)

In Media class this week, we've been talking about still photography and some of the influential pictures throughout history. We took a look at some Pulitzer Prize winners and other photos that capture a moment that video couldn't. It definitely made me want to improve my photography skills. (Did I tell you all about the amazing deal I got on that photography book? It was a $48 book and I got it for $3!!)

Lately, I've been really into writing poetry. Perhaps this was spurred on by the fact that I'm in a poetry class in which we write no poetry, and my creative genius was begging to be let out. We've also been reading quite a bit of free verse in my poetry class, so I got to thinking, Gosh, I can write free verse! Soooo.... I have forced myself to get away from the structured-ness that I always hold myself to. It's nice to productively write, for a change!

Because I will be receiving a grade for this blog, and because I'd like a good grade, I'm going to be expanding my "repertoire". Instead of blogging only on daily activities and college life, I'd like to start including some more serious discussion topics (thanks to Evelyn for helping me on that wording!).
So, dear readers, I leave you with these two questions:
~Do you have a favorite photograph? If so, I'd love to see it! Comment below with a link to the picture.
~What are some topics that you'd be interested in me covering? These can range from fun to serious... I'm up for anything!
xoxo,
Ok - so for topics I'd like you to cover...
ReplyDeleteWhat is it like as a young Catholic in this day?
What are the hopes and fears for the future of a young lady like you in her first year of college?
I think that you should write about what you love ... books, cooking, your faith ... The best postings will be the ones that come from your heart. :)
ReplyDeleteI want to know more about how you feel as a college student. Is it living up to your expectations? Do you feel anything is lacking in your experience
ReplyDeleteI do not have a favorite photo. I have few photos that I really like. I do tend to like photos where there is strong emotion conveyed.
