I enjoyed working on project one because it was a new way to express myself for a class with something that I express myself on everyday. The only two challenges I really faced were the questions of who am I and how am I going to make something that represents me as a person. Well after scrolling through my personal Instagram I realized what really makes me who I am, and that is when I began taking photos for the assignment. After taking so many photos though I thought, how am I going to make a physical item that brings one of these photos to life? I went through my apartment and picked up an empty alcohol bottle and my crafting supplies and began to work. I ended up taking three things that make me who I am and morphing them into one product. Alcohol, the beaches of Isle of Palms, and crafting are what made my final product. Looking around myself and what surrounds me is what I realized makes me the person I am, and having tragic event take place in my life while working on this project also helped me realize who I am and why I am who I am. I've learned a lot about myself in the process of completing this project, and I would not want to be anyone else except for who I am no matter how much I don't want to be a part of my own life sometimes.
