Free Post-- What makes me Happy !(:


My Friends are definitely a big part of my life and always will be! Coming to college has opened many doors for me and showed me new people and places and i have had good and bad experiences but i have learned alot and i know i still have so much more to learn and i dont think i could make it without my best friends there to support me and keep me going when times are tough. The people i choose to place my self around is also part of who i am and who i want to become. Just like i love my parents, i also love my friends in a different way, just like i would love my boyfriend in a different way also. But like i said, its human nature for us to love and be loved back and i think that is a huge part in our life and we take advantage of that and every moment we have and not stay angry or upset about little things. One other thing that i love and always puts a smile on my face is going on vacation to the Beach! I think that beaches are so beautiful and i love going there, putting my feet in the sand, and thanking God for how blessed i am! I've been quite a few places, my ultimate favorite beach though i would have to say would be Hawaii. Looking out at the ocean and the scenery around it is Art that God has created.

Human Condition


This is Contemporary Art displayed at the Graves Art Gallery. It represents Human identity and the fears, hopes, dreams and anxieties of the human condition.

Human Struggle


We all go through human struggles in life that is just the way that it is. It is part of our nature and something we have to experience at one point. I really like this piece of artwork because i think it portrays different kinds of human struggles that we may go through. One thing i noticed though is that it is all men in the picture, no woman or children. But it shows someone maybe getting burned by that fire, and then some of the men look like they are in pain and need help and another looks like he is beating up and fighting with one of the men.

Poetry Slam

The National Poetry Slam is the largest performance poetry festival in the world, and in 2005.

Poetry slam is the competitive art of performance poetry. It puts a dual emphasis on writing and performance, encouraging poets to focus on what they're saying and how they're saying it. This is the first time that i had even heard about this, i had no idea what a poetry slam was, and it was quite interesting.

Free Post--What Completes Me!

MY FAMILY. This is my mother and my father. They are the reason that i am here and i am so thankful for them. We have such a great relationship even though my parents got divorced whenever i was a baby. They watched me and helped me grow up and they are the reason of who i am today. Without them, i am not complete. I learned so much from them and i look up to them for everything and know i am blessed. Its human nature to love and this is another example of love because i love them so very much !

This music video is a true work of art

The Carrie Underwood music video Cowboy Casonova is a true work of art to me. In the video,
Carrie sets the scene like its 19th Century Western Era. The wardrobe was very well put together and all the scenery and dancing as well. The Storyline was easy to follow and it was a very good one too. When you watch the video, you can see the art of the video and how it relates back to that century.

Human nature in Art form

Human nature is the basis of character, the temperament and disposition; it is that indestructible matrix upon which the character is built, and whose shape it must take and keep throughout life. This we call a person's nature. In one's life, you want to experience love because it is one of the greatest things we can experience down here on earth and it is our nature to fall in love with another man or woman. Love is the basis of all things to me, you should love God, other people, then yourself. : )
