Ten Things

In english, we had to write of list of ten important things that we've learned so far in life. In webaudio, we recorded ourselves saying aloud the list, then added music and images to match the words.

  1. It’s okay to be sad or lonely.
  2. Sometimes my best isn’t as good as other peoples’ best, and it doesn’t help to dwell on it.
  3. I have nothing to lose by complimenting someone.
  4. Creative outlets are important.
  5. Tea makes everything better.
  6. Writing on myself does not give me ink poisoning.
  7. Having something mediocre and finished is better than having a perfect half-thing.
  8. I don’t exist for other people to find me nice and pretty.
  9. It’s hard not to be immediately good at something.
  10. There will always be others going through the same struggles I’m going through.

Using garageband was a new experience for me. I'd only ever played around with it before. It was very useful for creating a podcast, and I was surprised at how easy it was to use. Making a podcast was pretty simple; I just had to record my voice, add music, add images, and presto, a podcast.

English Media Piece

In english, we each took a picture relating to our Ten Things poem, and the picture had to include either the title of the poem or one of the ten things in it. It's meant to be a visual representation of the ten things, and also of an important part of ourselves.
