What the Bleep?... (final project/course reflection)

Seeing Sideways... Where do I start? To be honest I didn't hear about the class until I signed up for it. I was nervous, because I didn't know what we were even going to be doing. (Pre-class jitters). But after the first couple of classes, I realized that I was really going to enjoy it. It was something different from all of my other classes, the class made you reach into your childhood/creative side and really let that shine in the class. I've have had Beth in previous classes, so I knew that at least the class was going to be exciting. 


For the Final Project, (which I worked really hard on), I wanted people to see a different side of me and what truly makes me happy. Mind you I've never been good with my words, so I decided to use pictures to show how I felt. Which all-in-all works, because I love photography. Making the book about myself made me realize a lot of things... that being no matter what has happened, who has came and gone out of mine life... I always made sure to make it through and become a stronger person. 


I really enjoyed this course, and if I could I would take it every semester... just to get my mind off everything and just think & be creative. Thank You Beth. It's been a pleasure.

Who Am I?... (final project)


  1. Who are you in the eyes/perception of others?  I am me. I always try to stay true to myself, and never let anything change that. 
  2. How do you see/perceive yourself? I perceive myself as a hard-working, loyal, & loving person. I always strive to be the best that I can, in any circumstance. I've been through a lot since I was little & I try not to see the bad in it, but learn from it & become stronger because of it. 
  3. Why are you here? (your definition of here) I am here because I'm suppose to be. Whether I am suppose to change the lives of others, to make someone smile, or be here for you when you fall. All I want to do is see the positive side of things. The grass is always greener... 
  4. What are the implications of your identity to others? (you decide to whom the implications apply - you or others, but be specific) Truthfully, I don't want to know what other people think about me. Negative or positive. I just hate to be judged. I try to be the best person I can be, and yes- I admit that everyone has their days and may not be in the best mood, but that's only human. It doesn't mean that they are going to be like that forever. So, I don't want to know. 
  5. How are you effected by the identity of others? (are you different around various people - why might that be) I'm actually not different around other people. I'm always myself & if you can't handle it then so be it. Granted I always try to feel people out and see if they are outgoing/shy, just because sometimes people could take me the wrong way, and then I wouldn't want anyone to judge me..
  6. Is identity static? (make sure to show in your project your answer to this) I don't think so. I am me, and I wouldn't want it any other way.
