Survived Week Four, Time for More

February 19, 2021

This week was definitely a long one; however, I LOVED everything I was creating. First, I started my week off by reflecting on my experiences with photography. I’ve always loved taking pictures and preserving a moment, so I really liked getting to write my story down. I’m a big believer in the idea that photos… Continue reading Survived Week Four, Time for More

Another week, another Daily Create (or 3)! Overall, I had a fun time doing the Daily Creates this week! The first and last one I did were done on PicsArt, but the middle one was done with the website provided. Can’t wait for week five!

February 19, 2021

For this assignment, I made a collage that represents me on PicsArt. I wanted to use bright colors (especially pink because it’s my favorite) and places, people, and things, that I love. Throughout the collage you can see my best friends, my brother, and my love for lacrosse (bottom row), as well as positive quotes… Continue reading Collaged Up

I took all these photos around 9:00pm on Wednesday night so I hope you enjoy! Take a photo that visually represents a sound. Take a photo of two related objects of drastically different sizes. Pink is HOT! Make a photo dominated by something PINK. Take a picture of an object that is a metaphor for… Continue reading Comet and Cupid and Donner and PHOTOBLITZEN

I have had this debate (prompted by group leaders, professors, etc. here at UMW), more than I could imagine. So it wasn’t hard to come up with what I would put in this meme. I will forever stand by my statement; however, if you would like to challenge me, feel free to do so in… Continue reading Pop-Tarts = Ravioli

I made this image on PicsArt to showcase how although birthdays are a great time in theory, they never seem to go the way you think they would. Cheers to my birthday with Elmo!

February 16, 2021

Last week, I wrote about my bucket list/why I wanted to do everything on the list. This week I decided it would only be right to continue on this path and make a visual representation of the top nine things on the list. My bucket list is definitely an easy, yet entertaining, one. I want… Continue reading The Chum Bucket PT 2

The People Tripping With Me

February 16, 2021

For this assignment I took inspiration from “The Brady Bunch“! I used Adobe Spark in order to make my collage of me and my friends (the people who are tripping though my life with me). I chose to do all of my friends because they have truly given me a family outside of my bloodline.… Continue reading The People Tripping With Me

Places of Peace

February 16, 2021

Today I wanted to display the places where I feel at most peace. I tend to overthink a lot, so when I find something that can bring me an ultimate sense of calm, I turn to it a lot. I’ve found that the beach, the sunrise, nature hikes, and evening drives bring me the most… Continue reading Places of Peace

I think this image/the story behind me capturing it truly encapsulates my story of loving stars and photography. Like said in the caption, I love stars and Orion is my favorite constellation (only because it is easy to find lol). Most of my childhood memories take place under the stars with my neighbors, and I… Continue reading Testing Out Tips

I honestly am very excited for this week, because my whole life I’ve been known as the kid with the camera. Literally you could always find me with one–from when I was in elementary school playing with my dad’s point and shoot camera, to when I finally got my own in high school, to now… Continue reading My Camera and Me

This is a picture of me and my roommate the first day we met (before coming to UMW to ultimately become sisters). My roommate, Maria (on the left), is probably the best one to walk the planet. I’m not going to lie, before meeting her, I was a little worried we wouldn’t click–because we previously… Continue reading #RoomieGoals

February 12, 2021

Goodbye week three! This week was ALLLLLLL about the writing. Like I said in my Daily Create post this week, being creative is hard. I think this week really showed me how it isn’t so much the creating part that I struggle with, but more so coming up with what I am creating. I like… Continue reading Write, Wrote, Written.

Being Creative is Hard.

February 12, 2021

Hey everyone! Here are my three Daily Creates for the week! I think one thing I noticed this week was that creating isn’t necessarily difficult; however, coming up with what to create is the hard part. I just kept wanting to one up myself and definitely put more pressure on myself than I probably should… Continue reading Being Creative is Hard.

When I was looking through assignments I could do this week, I stumbled upon the opportunity to write a letter and send it off. I think my favorite emotion is gratitude. So, when I decided I would be doing this assignment, I thought of some of the people I am grateful for. I ended up… Continue reading A Long Awaited Thank You

February 9, 2021

I’m not even going to lie, coming up with who to write about for this assignment was A LOT harder than I thought it would be. Not because I couldn’t think of someone who inspires me, but because I couldn’t just think of one person. So I’ve decided to write about all the people who… Continue reading Who Inspires Me the Most?

All of these quotes are from the book 101 Essays that Will Change the Way You Think. This book has single handedly changed the way I see the world, interpret my interactions with those around me, and think about myself. For this assignment I couldn’t just pick one quote, because the book really has impacted… Continue reading The Book that Changed My Life.

When tasked to dissect a story I not only enjoyed, but one that was important to me, I looked into my everyday life for inspiration. Like I said in my initial interpretation of our theme, I like to tell my story best by showing how the people around me impact my life. Consequently, I looked… Continue reading Tyler Michael’s Obsession with Lewis Capaldi

I decided it would be best to just do one big post of my Daily Creates so it would be easy to find them in one place! To be transparent, at the beginning of the week I was dreading the Daily Creates.

Let me set the scene for you. It’s Sunday night, I’m sitting on the floor of my dorm room, going through every option on the Assignment Bank because I had nothing else to do, and I find an option to do a TedTalk. I was, to say the least–excited. You see, I’ve always LOVED TedTalks,… Continue reading Forever Alone.

I was tasked to come up with a theme for both the DS106 class, but also myself, and I think I have a pretty good idea on where we can take the “What’s (Y)our Story” theme.
