Week 4 Reflection

 I think that this project has helped build my creativity and expand my thoughts on what I'm truly grateful for. Thinking about what to take pictures of everyday had me searching for subjects but also finding meaningful ones, like my family, friends, and all things that matter to me. I tried to portray things that are very evident in my life and things that I sometimes a take for granted but really do mean a lot to me. The most difficult part of this project was to find meaningful pictures that still met the assignment requirements. The most valuable part of the project was finding pictures that did mean something to me and also receiving feed back from classmates about the pictures I put lots of thought into. I would recommend this project to other students because it makes you realize how lucky you really are and how it matters to remember that. This project has reminded me of things in my life that I have that others may not have and how I'm lucky to have those things. A project that I would design instead of 20-one Grateful would be a documentation of work for 20 days. For example doing drills for a sport or practicing for a different sort of activities and then at the end of the project realizing how far you have come in such little time. This project would really show the great benefits of hard work and really putting your mind to something.

Day 20

My friends. They are always there for me and we have the best times together!

Day 19

My bed. After a long day its nice to just relax in my wonderful bedroom.

Week 3 Reflection

Although this is the third week my outlook on the project is still similar. I'm appreciating things in my life a lot more and realizing what I would like to share with others. I enjoy this project because it is different and unique and unlike any other project I have done for school. Week 3 has been good but I expect that Week 4 will be the best one yet.

Day 16

Swimming. This is such a great sport that a lot of people overlook and don't appreciate. This past season was very special because we went undefeated and beat Chico for the first time in 8 years, this accomplishment brought our team together and created many memoires that I am very grateful for.

I'm grateful for my brother. He is pretty much my best friend and he is always there for me. He is the most dedicated guy I know and has worked through so much to get to where he is today.

Day 11

My car is very special to me. It is my first car and one that I will remember for the rest of my life. I'm very lucky to have such a nice car that is a joy to drive.

Week 2 Reflection

After week 2 this project is affecting how I view certain things in my life. It causes me to put extra thought into things that I would like to share with others. Having to take pictures of things that I am grateful for has helped me realize how lucky I really am. Due to this I think the project is going nicely.

Week 1 Reflection

This project makes me think about the things in my life that I would like to share with others. I'm thinking about all of the support and opportunities I have and feel very lucky for them. Photos are good way to show things in life that we feel grateful for without using many words. For me this week that is what this project was about.
