After a long ride, we saw our new home for the first time. It wasn’t luxurious, but to a couple of young children like us it was cool to live on the beach. The changes that lied ahead of us were great. There are many ways in which this new start changed my life. First, no longer did we live in fear. This enabled me to move on. I enrolled in eight grade that year. I felt like had a fresh start. No one knew my business. I could make myself whatever I wanted. My whole personality changed. That year I started at quarterback for junior high and from there everything started to look up. If I was to go into details of all the success I had it would be bragging, so I am just going to say I went from a casualty of a broken home to a respected and important part of High Island High School. In the five years I was there, I had more fun and a more productive life than all the other years put together.
As for my Visual Analysis Task, I have chosen to write about this image on the left. This piece was recently created by Shepard Fairey a street artist. This was made in response to the election of Donald Trump- known as the President of the United States. ‘We the People’ features portraits of Native Americans, African Americas, Muslims, and Latinas portrays in Fairey’s trademark style with slogans such as “Women are Perfect” and “Defend Dignity”.
As the course progressed we learned about perception, which helps us now be able to recognize the way in which different media such as art, use different characteristics of our perceptual system to create illusions. This paper will analyze an example of these illusions, and provide scientific evidence by Coren and Girgis to back up the explanation of the illusion. In analyzing my example of perceptual illusions, I will describe the reality, perceptual experience, and explain the perceptual principles.
The story of my history as a writer is a very long one. My writing has come full circle. I have changed very much throughout the years, both as I grew older and as I discovered more aspects of my own personality. The growth that I see when I look back is incredible, and it all seems to revolve around my emotions. I have always been a very emotional girl who feels things keenly. All of my truly memorable writing, looking back, has come from experiences that struck a chord with my developing self. This assignment has opened my eyes, despite my initial difficulty in writing it. When I was asked to write down my earliest memory of writing, at first I drew a blank. All of a sudden, it became very clear to me, probably because it had some
Why I choose this image to work up and do analysis of. Well as a photographer it touches on a theme that I and other photographers must deal with. The idea that someone can get something for free. Just because we are photographers or even a regular artist that we are all just dying for more exposure and are willing to do whatever you want for some “good exposure”. I don’t think that most folks are all the self-severing, they are just unaware how much time and money goes into producing a good image. And suffer from this misbelief that this is just someone’s hobby and not their lively hood. Form the text of “trust me I am a professional Photographer I don’t work for free” and with the camera, lens, and SD cards in the middle. It
A series of experiments was performed on glass beads and natural clean dry sands under the objective of the current work of performing parametric studies. Therefore, new techniques and methods were utilized to predict the gradation of the natural cohesionless silica sands tested in addition to the conventional geotechnical laboratory experiments, which were carried out to predict the mechanical characteristics of such soils. Moreover, ideal laboratory simulations for the SPT were performed under several particular relative densities, loading conditions, and stress-strain controlled boundaries. Additionally, the obtained results from such series of experiments were stored in digital forms for further processing and analyses.
Here are some reasons why adequate will get you farther in live. The first reason is more people like people who are respectful then people who aren't respectful and rude also have good manners. In the article “Is Anything Wrong with this picture”, by:Lauren Tarshis and Kristin Lewi a quote states that “74% of American adult think that people are getting more rude”.

I leaned my head against the car window watching the leaves blowing around, just trying to distract myself from a slight feeling of emptiness inside of me. This feeling seemed all too familiar to me. My family and I had all of our possessions packed into boxes yet again. We were moving to a new state. At this point, up rooting our lives and starting over almost seemed more like a hobby than anything more significant. However, I have just now come to realize that what seemed like constant inconveniences in the past, have actually taught me how to be the best me with influences all around the country. Living in three different states and five homes may have been a challenge, but it provided me with memories that I wouldn’t trade for anything because those moments created the person I am today.
News has spread around through different means and has rapidly evolved in just the past few hundred years, from newspapers, to news channels, and now also through online media. The purpose of these news outlets is to inform the population on current events locally and internationally. Many people feel as if the news does a good job in captivating audiences and influencing them, but wonder if they are actually reporting the news accurately. In their article, “Pictures in Our Heads,” Anthony Pratkanis and Elliot Aronson thought the same, and made statements stating that the media does effectively influence the population and insinuating that the media does not always portray their coverage accurately; this
This is an anti-smoking advertisement geared towards parents of young children. The advertisement is overall plain and simple; it gets straight to the point when you look at it and utilizes a dark theme. This anti-smoking advertisement is trying to evoke a sense of “parental guilt” into parents who smoke. The way the advertisement is able to do this is through the use of an optical illusion, use of text and the use of negative space.
Conventions in images are able to explore and can construct a representation of a particular group, value or idea. With this image it portrays numerous visual conventions in the photo, such as camera angle, shot size, symbolism, and the focus.

It's been a spectacular ten years here at the school of St. Mary’s. I remember my first day of pre-school. As I walked in the PGC with my size 2 gym shoes and my button down red shirt, I had no clue what was waiting for me here at the school of St. Mary’s. All the awesome memories I would make such as playing soccer every day at recess, first communion in my suit and tie with all my friends, Mr. D playing basketball with us at recess, Mr. Head making awesome plays in the 8th grade volleyball game, and also all the other amazing memories St. Mary's gave to me that I'll never forget.
While big events can make major changes, little events define how we become as adults. My earliest memories is at a five year-old. It is one spot where I have been to, in my thoughts, more than any other has. In this memory, it was evening, as I stood on a dirt path. It was an unpaved driveway for the church parsonage.
Graduation day arrived and I had butterflies out of this world. It seemed as if I misplaced everything. I could not find my dress. My family came from one state to another. I finally got to the church were the commencement was going to be held. I
