How would you characterize yourself?

How would you characterize yourself?

Find a piece of multimedia that could represent you. You can check out google images, pull something from your myspace page, find a song, sketch etc. Describe the piece of media in your blog post and answer the following:


1. What about this piece of media represents who you are?
2. Does this piece of media help show the way that you see yourself or the way that other people see you?

Be ready to present to the class.

A piece of my art work from high school describes my creativity. It shows what i've done and how i've have evolved. It is a mcdonalds commercial. The funny thing is that now i actually work at mcdonalds. The commercial is aboutthe dollar menu. check it out on motionbox.com and look up randy sharp commercial or cvs videos and look my name up.

A quote which describes me is: "I make mistakes; thats what I do. I speak without thinking. I act without knowing. I drink so much I can barley walk. Im a fantastic lover though & an amazing friend.
God knows I mean well." This represents who I am because it describes me perfectly. The quote is exactly what I do, and who I am. I think that this piece of media shows people who I am without them even meeting me and many of my best friends also said that this quote reminded them of me exactly.

1.This picture represents me because she is a dancer. This dancer also has long legs that can stretch as high and flexible as mines.

2.If you are looking at this picture you are looking almost at me. We are two different people but in a way we share the same dance ability in this picture.

Something I've done that I can't outrun
Something I’ve done that I can’t outrun
Maybe you should wait maybe you should run
But there's something you've said that can't be undone

And you fall away from your past
But it's following you
You fall away from your past
It’s following you now

- Fall Away by: The Fray

These lyrics represent me because what ever I do in my life, I cannot escape the past. It will always be right behind you, and that is why I try to do what I think is right. If I do something wrong, it will eventually catch up to me. Also, what I choose to do will always follow me no matter what. This does show people who I am, because I try to treat everyone with the same repect. I hope to influence others by the way that I act, so that they can do the same to someone else.

Faces of Clay

Bodies pass by me
As time stands still
Alone in this world
Because nothing is real
City lights
Shining dreams
Smiling faces
Crying streams
Dying life
Love is pain
There is no way
To get out of this game
Screaming bodies
Faces of two
I’m only here
Because of you
Turn my life
Night to day
Save my soul
In this I pray

This is a poem that I wrote about a year and a half ago. I wrote this poem because at a time in my life I felt as though I was alone and didn’t have anybody there for me. It was a letter to God letting him know my interpretation of what I see on the daily basis and that I could not trust anyone but him at the time. I titled the poem Faces of Clay as a representation of everyone being so shifty. It seemed as if one minute everyone acted one way and the next they act another way. It’s as if they mold themselves into whatever they want to be at the time and hide their faces as to who they really are.

Some piece of media that would represent me would be cool architecture. My friend lives right by some houses Frank Lloyd Wright designed. These houses are designed to fit in with the natural landscape. I really admire this because you usually don't see things like these anymore. One of my goals in life is to have a really nice house and these houses are beautiful. It is something that many people don't know about me but I admire nice places.

"I believe that everything happens for a reason.People change so that you can learn to let go,things go wrong so that you apprieciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together". This quote represents me because this is how I look at life. This quote shows the way I see myself and other people because I payed attention to what the quote was trying to say and everything about it is true. I can relate it to myself and other people.

An image that represnts me fully is a picture of a fist. A revoultionary fist, because I try do what's right but not just for me for others as well. Even though sometimes people may think that when I act violent i'm doing something wrong or over reacting, I still feel like i'm doing what needs to be done about the situation i'm in. But that's just me, and how I am.

I choose this bit of comedy because I agree with George Carlton often about issues, such as the Seven Words sketch. I feel that it describes me because I am of a simlar philosivy.

www.myspace.com/gqinsane. This media represents who I am because I write produce and sing most of all the songs on my page. This helps show my music side of me. It also shows the close bond between me and my friends. We formed the group called GQ(Good Quality)

1) this peice of media is one of my favorite rappers, he has some of the best punch lines in the game, also like myself and kanye, he was in an serious car accident. He's also rededicated his life to GOd, which is something that i plan on doing when im ready.

2) yes, i consider my self an rapper, or and entertainer.

In this photo of me I have a flower in my hair. This symbolizies peace, and thats what I'm all about. I always try to keep myself away from violence. I like to do lots of activites that are involed with the envinorment, becuase I cherish the earth. A clean earth is a healthly earth.

The bass clef symbolizes, my love for music and my love the bass itself. When I hear music all I hear is whatever the bass is doing. Playing the bass is my life, my job, and my love.

This video, to me, is pretty powerful. I feel like they could have made this just for me. The questions they ask throughout the video are things i think about on a daily basis. This band itself really helps me try and get through a day. There message is powerful and thought provoking.
