Demonstrating and doing


Ever since I was 4 years old, I’ve played hockey. Years of my life devoted to this sport. I loved it I spent everyday playing it with my friends. I’ve grown used to it as I’ve experienced so much of it. It’s where I’m most comfortable. Basketball on the other hand was never for me, I was always to short and skinny and unathletic. I have never been good at it and have never been comfortable playing it in front of people. It’s embar watching myself miss wide open shots by a bunch of feet. I stepped out my  comfort zone taking this video but it’s the only way I can grow in it is by practicing,

This collage represents a person being surrounded/protected by the hands of society or god. They form a strong circle around us that follows us throughout life. There’s bigger hands coming from our mind and mouth because that is where we most commonly express the words of god and express our feelings. The bottom is dark and the top is light.

Madama Butterfly

If I were a 21st century director, I would turn Madama Butterfly into a video game by turning the story into a survival and success story for Butterfly. I came across the opera on blackboard first in a late assignment. In order to start the game I would have Butterfly and the love of her life Pinkerton, a U.S. Naval officer together on an small island off the coast of Japan with very few people who inhabit it. They just recently met each other and Butterfly believes she has found her true love. After a short time together, Pinkerton leaves on his ship as Butterfly is left wondering when or if ever he is to return. The object of the game would follow Butterfly on her conquest to find her true love again. Instead of waiting in pain, Butterfly decides to conquest after her love after giving birth to his child without his knowledge. Butterfly gets a boat and sets off on a voyage around Japan searching every inch of every small island in hopes of finding Pinkerton. She searches for years coming across unbelievable people and things that teach her many lessons of life. Three long years pass by and no luck. She finally gives up and returns back to her home. But with hope in the back of her heart she still waits for her lover to return. Eventually he does, but instead of staying and loving her and their kid he takes the kid and sails away, leaving Butterfly torn into pieces. She then decides to get her baby back and she's not going to give up until she dies.
In today's time, video games are the new source of entertainment replacing the theatre. At one point, plays were a huge thing to do that families and friends would always attend for pleasure. They have since been replaced with the much more developed video games that are starting to become more and more human interactive that have led to the huge boom in recent sales especially among young men and boys.

Looking into another eyes for 2 minutes

I looked into another classmates eyes for 2 minutes, and to be honest at the beginning it was funny and I had a hard time not laughing little. But as time went by I truly did start to feel a sense of comfort or at least I felt a sense of friendship with someone I had never even talked to before.

Raul Cuero

One of the biggest problems of society today is that people are to caught up on the thoughts and opinions of others. People care so much about how others feel about their actions that they let their own actions echo the feelings of others to please them. People look ignore how they truly feel and want for themselves and this is what causes problems. We choose to be not happy instead of following the things in life that make you happy. You must love yourself before you can love another. Raul is a perfect example of someone who was not bothered by the negative thoughts of others but instead of the positive thoughts of his own. He was always able to make the best out of the situations he was put in like the days when he was a kid growing up poor in Latin America, he would amuse himself by playing with cockroaches. 
He was able to dive in and pull new and unique knowledge out of him that helped make him unique and let him stand above his competition. He goes on to say that the American education has a good foundation but we don't look at schooling the right way. Unlike other countries, we view education as an assignment, a duty, we do not look at it like the opportunity it truly is. The chance to set yourself apart and better yourself should be a reason you get yourself out of bed in the morning.
