Senior Moments

Some Unforgettable Senior Moments would have to be entering gymnastics. Its changed my outlook on life and has taught me a lot more about life that I haven’t learned in school. So far my senior year hasn’t been full of fun it has consist of hard moments. Moments when I am to tired to think where I just want to sleep. I see life passing by and I build a brick wall in order not to think of the fact that I am growing up to the point where im going to have to leave childish actions behind.

A generation of nincompoops?

From the article i dont really believe that it is a generation of nincompoops simply a different generation. Nowadays with the new technology that has been created alot of techniches that used to be essential to sustain life are not anymore. For example, how to use a can opener, we have automatic can openers so there is no need to use the old one. This generation brings new technology and new ways of working out obstacles so, why be upset if this new generation can not work old technology. The older generation constantly nags for us to be better and strive to understand new things that are coming out but when we have mastered those technologies they turn around and get mad because we don't know the old technology. I sympathize with this at the same time because its not good idea to lose that knowledge of older technology. At the same time though i don't think it is fair and just to judge the new generation on this. If the older generation thinks that were to lazy then let them think that as long as the new generation succeeds and apply knowledge to the betterment of the world then there is no need to worry.

Concert Photography

I would love to go to an usher concert. He is a beast. I like all his knew songs and his performance at the VMAs left me in awe. I would love to seem him dance and I would take so many photographs. I would take Corinna even if she didn’t want to go. I would make her take pictures of me going “I love you usher!! Omg!!” I would. Believe it.  I would make a photo gallery because I would want to go back and remember the memory. 

 

Photojournalist

To be a photojournalist one must be able to take a not just a picture but one that tells a story. A picture that stands out beyond the rest and makes the audience feel. Nowadays we find it easier to take picture with the new technology we encounter but anyone can take a picture and press a button nut photojournalist take pride and make sure it is not just a picture that it is a story. A trait I have that a photojournalist has is that I like telling stories the way they happened exactly. I like photography because I see memories and the moments captured into a picture, which is key to being a photojournalist. I wouldn’t like to be a photojournalist and I don’t think I have what it takes because even though I enjoy photography I don’t think it would be something I would love to do personally. I see that as I grow up the career that I choose is one I would have to live with and do for most of my life and I have a belief that if your going to dedicate yourself to something you must love it. If you love something your doing it would be so much harder to let it go and let your work degrade. 

Photographic Fakery

Unfortunately, in photojournalism there are journalists that publish articles which contain pictures that are fake. They Photo shop objects or other details to draw the reader into to the article. The problem arises when the reader finds out a certain picture is fake and the trust between the informed and the informer is broken.  So I think that if journalist want credibility they should never put a fake picture in their article and therefore have it punishable by law to do so. It confuses the audience on what to believe and maybe was more truth and less manipulation in these articles when a true story is published there will be no speculation to whether it is accurate or not. 

School

My summer was full of changes and growing up stuff. I cant believe I'm a senior already! :O i still feel like I'm a freshman but now that i look back on it I've seen how much everything has changed and never would i ever had thought id be here freshman year. Schools barely starting and my first thought is i don't like school work. Its nice coming to school this year surprisingly. its finally sunk in that some of the people I've grown up with since 7th grade i might not see again. Its sad but at the same time we all make the best of it x) I have a feeling we'll stay in touch and all the memories we have made and will make will be those to remember. So all in all i guess I have mixed emotions about graduating but i have a feeling this years gonna be the best :)
