Week 4 Reflection

1. This "20: One Grateful" project has been a real eye opener for me. I have acknowledged many of the things I am blessed to have in my life that everyone else in the world may not be as fortunate to have as well. I think this project did bring out a creative side in me, and everyone else too, because as time passed by it became a little more difficult to think of things to post. When that was the case, we all had to dig a little deeper in our minds and truly think in different ways than usual.
2. I think that the most difficult part of this project was having to think of new things to post each day that were different than any other day of posting. The most valuable part about this project was getting to realize everything that we're all truly fortunate to have, and then getting to share it with everyone else too. Although it is a lot of work, I would recommend this project to other students because it's very different than any other project I've done before. So it is something new and different than normal.
3.I think it would be pretty cool to do some kind of 20 day project on a single subject of your choice, and then taking a picture of it each day to see how it changes over time. For example, the new building that's being constructed on campus, or some kind of plant or flower, or even a person. It is definitely interesting to see the change in anything, even in such a short period of time.

Day 20- Humor

 
As embarrassing as this photo may be, I am thankful for my sense of humor. Without something to laugh at, what else would get you through the day?

Day 19- Good Fortune

No matter how bad a day may seem, there will still always be something better just waiting around the corner.

Day 18- Pool Time

There's no better way to spend a hot summer day than by swimming in a nice cold pool! I am always thankful for the fact that my best friend has a pool at her house, otherwise I don't know how I'd survive the California heat.

Day 17- A Day on the Lake

One of my favorite parts about summer is getting to go boating out at Black Butte Lake with all my friends. We always have a great time, but we always end up with some pretty bad sunburns by the end of the day.

Week 3 Reflection

As the weeks continue on, trying to think of a new photo to post every day always gets more and more challenging. But with only four more days left next week, I'm sure I can think of a few more things to post for this blog. Everyone's photos are definitely still improving each week, and I love getting to see them all and commenting on my favorite ones.

Day 16- Music

Life without music would be pretty dull and boring, so I am grateful for all the amazingly talented singers and performers around the world who provide us all with the gift of music. It's amazing how something so simple can change a mood from bad to good, or let us escape from this crazy world for just a moment.
