This is who I am









The Outdoors

They say the outdoors is a certain place that only a few groups of people like. They also say that its like home. You underestimate what you can see outdoors and what there is to discover beyond the trees. Most people don’t understand what it’s like to be far away civilization and what it's like to be separated from everyone. Where the nearest cell signal is 20 or more miles away. Some people don’t get the chance to get beyond the city or travel out to a national park or an area with scenic view. Some people say they can’t afford it but most the time you only need simple items to make it out in the outdoors or wilderness. They say it comes with many dangers that can affect someone permanently as a person or if they are by themselves. Everything you do outside will either come with a consequence or a positive feature. You can only live once and doing somethings outdoors can kill you. They still say that technology is destroying our national parks and destroying the opportunity to keep those parks open for a longer time period. TIme goes by fast when your out doing things or even being outside around your home. Wether your out doing work or just sitting outside, breathing fresh air from the trees around you gives you a relaxing feeling. Most of the time technology takes over and people don’t get up and are not at active to get up and do something. Overall the technology that is evolving is going to make it harder and harder for some people to get out and see things that they might never get to see again. They also say that when people bring other types of technology in the outdoors or other national park they usually cause a bigger accidents like death or serious injury. As a person most people should be able to go and see things like everyone else even if you are older or younger.

Statement: 

The picture relates to the flash fiction story by showing who I am as a person and who others are as a person. Not describing me the whole time in the story but part time. And showing how different I am to others and what I like to do in my own time. The picture shows one thing that you could do in the outdoors but there are many other things that you can do as well. And it shows how brave you have to be. It also shows how independent I am and shows how I don’t need anyone else's help with what I am doing.




The flash fiction piece capture a snapshot on who I am as a person and what I like to spend my time on. It shows how no one can be the same as you and that everyone is different in one way or another. And they tend to have some similarities but not all are the same making everyone different.


Reflection: 

This unit I have been able to learn on how bias works and what it is. You also start to get to know what other think and how there bias is against the same topics that you have done. The class also expresses other things that you might not have heard about before and that helps you learn new things everyday.

    I agree with the individuality. My favorite line in your flash fiction is "Everything you do outside will either come with a consequence or a positive feature."

    i agree with when you say people cant afford it because it doesn't take much to just go out in the wilderness and explore. i think its a great piece.

    i agree that people should spend more time outdoors. it can really give you time to think about life. taking technology into the outdoors can cause some problems because people aren't paying their full attention to their surroundings.

    I like how you described your love for the outdoors as your way to clear your mind.

Flash fiction AJ Wenger       Get out of bed and go to school. Don’t roll over and reset your alarm for another 10 minutes you know that 10 minutes is going to turn into an hour or two. You feel at the time that the extra sleep is so needed until you realize everything your missing at school will need to be made up. you know you’ll get that extra hour of sleep thinking its going to make you feel better the rest of the day but really when you get out of bed you’ll be bored and wished you would’ve gone.

After all that stress you’ll go through a whole other wave of stress wondering when and how you can make up for the 7 classes you missed.

No Backbone

Self-Portrait Project Flash Fiction: Some people say that you’re kind, you just see it as looking outside your own perspective. You know that not all of your friends have been loyal and have talked behind your back, yet you defend them and you always make amends. You want to yell and scream because despite all of them being older than you, they’re the ones acting childish. You’re tired of the games and apologizing first when you know that deep down - you have nothing to be sorry for. He flakes, she blames you for her faults, and he chose his relationship over friendship - in the end they’re all the same.  They say that you’re their best friend and then as soon as something doesn’t go their way - well, you know what happens. But, you’re tired of being told you have no backbone because you’re “too nice”. Once upon a time, you being so nice was their favorite quality because they took advantage of your kindness. They took advantage of you. Artist Statement: I’m...

Ripples

Ripples Flash Fiction: no sudden movements.  take it slowly. pace yourself.  you try to listen, but you never follow through.  your reflection in the water will always be marred by the ripples you make.  Artist Statement I chose to edit the photo of myself to appear as if it was reflected in the surface of a body of water. This decision was made to reflect the nature of my piece of writing, which played upon the phrase “to make waves” in order to portray the nature of some of the struggles i’ve faced in my own life due to my inherent need to push forward and push myself beyond my own limits. i chose to add a wash of blue to the photo to express the melancholy nature and subdued frustration associated with goals unmet and expectations unfulfilled. I chose to refrain from touching up my blemishes and imperfections in order to make myself appear just as human and genuine as anyone else who might read what i had written, and could better r...
