Fear

For this assignment, I am not exactly sure how my classmates will react. I have not prepared anything except for to talk about fear. I wasn't exactly sure how to create a way to express it, so I thought I would talk about it instead. Hopefully my classmates will understand it, but I expect most will think it is either silly or do not get it.

Bliss

A lot of the time, I do not put all of my creativity into something because I just want to get it done. I was this way especially when I was younger, just trying to get by without having to put full effort into anything. However, the past few years I have been working a lot harder at trying to find my full potential. I actually am in the process right now of recording, mixing and producing an EP of my own songs for my Capstone. We finished recording the guitars not too long ago, and I must say that already the songs are sounding absolutely wonderful. I know now that when it is all complete I am going to be thrilled with it, and at this moment am extremely happy and proud of the results that I have so far. A few more weeks and I will have a six song album completely under my belt! How exciting.

55 alive!

As a five year old, I decided to put a bobby pin in my nose and pretend like it was a bull ring, so that I could run around and charge without consequence. When I was twenty, I thought the coolest thing I could do was actually to pierce my nose, and so I did. For about four months I had a real ring in my nose, just after I had taken out the ring that I had in my lip for over six months. As a 55 year old, I would like to think that I have gotten over all of the silly games with my face, and have started worrying more about real life situations and stuff that will actually affect me and my family. At this point in my life, maybe I will have grandchildren, and so will be able to take the bobby pin bull ring idea and play it with them. That would be pretty humorous to me. To be able to take something that I thought of now as an assignment idea, and use it with grandchildren as a way of cheaply entertaining them. Hopefully though, they will not move forward with that idea when they are older and start piercing their face! But if they do, good for them. Who am I to say no? BUT, I have no idea what I would really do with anything when I am 55. I'd like to hope for the basics, and just see me alive in thirty-three years. After that I guess I can decide what I would like to do with my bobby pin.
Until then...
