In Class Responses

Paul Pots

It seems as though Paul's performance can go one of two ways at this point: horribly or amazing. He seems a little goofy, but.... amazing. The way he spoke about his confidence was as he knew he had something, but had a hard time expressing it. Truly a very impressive performance.

Gun Painting

The sheer size of the painting makes a statement. A gun is a very powerful object, and this painting depicts this by enlarging one. The colors of the painting also use some of the things that are associated with guns. For instance, the color red is the color of blood. The red does a good job of highlighting the gun physically and metaphorically.

Star Trek Movie Trailer

If the movie is as good as the trailer, Star Trek should pick up a whole new following of fans. It looks fast-paced and action-filled, and that seems to be the kind of movie that is doing well these days. Who'da thunk it... Star Trek and good in the same thought.

Spring Break's Best Day

My break was full of work, but I had St. Patty's day off and I definately took advantage. The day started with 36 of some of my favorite holes in Frisbee Golg, Lester Lorch. As a cherry on top, my team won. Immediately after, my buddies and I got ready for a party that a band of my friend's had their first show at. They did a really good job, but I was more focussed on the new girl that I met.

Question of My Curiousity

What do people really think about me?

Is there truly a correct religion, and if so, which one is it?

Why would someone who supposedly created and loves everyone not expose a certain person to a certain religion if it were the correct one, and does that mean that this person will be condemned for it?

Why does democracy usually fail?

Can people really not be trusted with their own futures?

I wonder how hard it will be to enter a career when I am done with school?

In an effort to learn the answers to the above questions, I should read. I believe that would be my best choice. As for the first question, I think that asking people may be the best way to find that out, but I think that it would be sort of awkward if I just straight up asked someone what they think about me.
