Step Dancing!

On Friday I went to a step dancing workshop and it was a blast! This was a great workshop to attend because it was a way for me to let off some STRESS! Everyone received a good work out and a lot of laughs. I also learned some new moves but Dayna and Stephanie are great and you should ask to see their new dance steps (hahah sorry girls but you were awesome)! Hope everyone is enjoying their practicum and remember dancing is a great stress reliever and I am sure the students would also love it!

Art History

Wow, I learned a lot about art history today! What I found extremely interesting was the part on World War One. As a history major, I noticed how many artists at the beginning of the war portrayed the war as romantic. However, this did not last! The artist began to show the devastating effects in their work. To me, this demonstrated how the war impacted them and their work. I also enjoyed taking the time to do a self-portrait with different techniques. What a great day!

Art Gallery

My trip to the Art Gallery was a great learning experience. First of all, I discovered that art can been viewed in a number of different ways. I could not believe how everyone was looking at one picture but seeing way different things than I was. I enjoyed B.C. Binning's "Kiss in Nine Pieces" the most. Many of my classmates thought it was a fish kissing while others thought it was a bigger fish eating a smaller fish. I on the other hand saw none of this! But after discussing I was able to see everyones ideas! To me that was awesome! I was also touched by the exhibit of missing women. This was a very moving exhibit. It portrayed the heart ache and grieving very well. Wow, I will never forget that.
