My Week Mapped

This week we had two prompt options. The first option was "Draw a map of your typical week." or "For one week, sit or stand in the same spot for 15 minutes every day. Each day, write down the most interesting thing you see or hear." I chose the prompt to draw a map of my week because this semester is a busy one for me.

I am a senior this year with my major being communications, my minor being professional writing, and my related area is public relations and advertising. This semester is a full coarse load. I am taking 18 credits, have 2 jobs, and I participate in 3 clubs on campus, while take the role of president in one. So I am literally EVERYWHERE on campus! (Usually running around like a chicken with it's head cut off.)

My map would show me spending most of my time in Biddle hall since I am a communications major and writing minor. Then the rest of my time would be spent at the CPA's, student union, the gym, and other various locations around campus.

This prompt really made me think about how much I walk all around campus everyday. I have a Fitbit and I always found it interesting on how I got so many steps a day but this map made it obvious. It opened my eyes to how much I walk around our tiny campus and made think, "How much more walking and steps would I take if I went to a bigger university?" And man am I thankful I don't!

Florida Fun- Final Project

My project consists of an Instagram and a website. The Instagram is titled “ summerfloridafun, ” while the website is titled, “ Florida Fun .” It took a lot of patience to create my project because I used Wix to create my website and this was my first time using Wix . My goal for this project was to outline my many adventures I took while living and visiting Florida over the past three summers. The purpose was also to keep track of where I was and what I was doing and how I felt when going on these many adventures. My process was a complicated one. It always takes me forever to get an inspiration or idea. My idea took me awhile to fully get in my brain. I know I wanted to expand on my location based narrative but I didn’t know how. I wanted to do something that meant something to more than myself and that would get people interested. The technology I used was my macbook, Wix, and Instagram, along with Google . The three characteristics I used were location based, nonlinear, and...

Favorite Method(s) of Procrastination

This week we had the option to pick between the two prompts titled, "Describe your favorite method of procrastination. Can you come up with a more productive one?" or "Chart your latest project against this shape. In what ways does it match? In what ways does it differ?" As per usual, both prompts sparked my interest but when it came down to picking one I chose the one titled, "Describe your favorite method of procrastination. Can you come up with a more productive one?" One of my most common methods of procrastination, like many of my peers, is my phone. Social media, texting, and music are my main problems when it comes to turning to my phone instead of my schoolwork or whatever else I am supposed to be doing. I would say my next most common method is food. When I am working on something I am constantly thinking about everything in my kitchen cupboards and refrigerator. I am constantly snacking and it drives me crazy. I should probably weigh like 50...

PostSecret

First, I want to start off by apologizing for this weeks response being so late. Last week was Thanksgiving (I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday filled with family) and Black Friday. I spent my holiday working retail with little sleep so that is why this post is so late, please forgive me. This week, or should I say last week, our prompt option was a little different. We were given the reading assignment titled, "Who are the people whose digital presence or identity you most admire? Your favorite Instagram/Snapchat/Twitter feeds?" We then had to pick two of them and answer a few questions. The assigned prompt this week was titled, "Climb up your own creative family tree." This creative family tree's purpose was to show me what different social media sites and pages I look at and where I get my inspiration for my own posts. I found this tree to be very difficult and exhausting since I try to be original when it comes to creating my posts. I found this w...
