Pairings Homework

For this assignment I had to put images next to each other that relate.  The first pairing I picked was a chicken parm flat bread sammich  and a drawing of some tums.  I think they go together because unhealthy food can upset my tummy and other people's as well so tums are very useful for eating food like this. 

I chose the potato chips to pair with dental floss and oral pain relief gel scan because my teeth are highly sensitive so when I eat something like potato chips I need pain relief gel because it's very painful. Also they relate because unhealthy food like chips can rot teeth so you need to floss after eating it. 

The next pairing is a swifer cleaner and a hair comb.  I think they relate because both are used for a similar purpose.  A swifer is used to clean floors and make them look nice while a comb is used to make hair look nice.

The last pair I picked was a picture of my psp in it's case and a scan of a stuffed animal Marie kitty wrapped in a scarf.  These two relate because they are both an object inside another object.  Also they contrast nicely because a psp and case are both plastic and hard while the scarf and kitty are both fabric and soft.

The freshman lecture today was all about studying abroad and mostly about the Rome program.  I think studying abroad would be a good opportunity especially for art since you would get to see things in person that you can't see here.  There were many pictures of places in Rome in the presentation.  Then another person talked about studying abroad in general.  I would like to study abroad someday but as it is right now there is no way I will get to since my family and myself just don't have the money for it.  If I ever do get to study in another country I want to go back to Germany and I would also like to go to Japan since my friend went there and said how awesome it was.  Studying abroad is a great idea if you have the money to do it.

First Blog

I think I finally figured out how to blog on this site.  I've never blogged before so this is all new to me.  The first project was the daily routine thing and I realized while doing that, that I have a very boring daily routine but it was too cold for me to go out in the city and do anything else.  So it was hard to get all the pictures for this but I finished it somehow.  Well I'm not sure what else I'm supposed to write for now so that's it.
