Final Project ideas
Final Project Ideas:
1. Fashion in Syracuse:
One idea I have for my final project is too blog about fashion at Syracuse University. Inspired by the Stitch Society blog, I will take photos of fashionable people at the University, and ask them questions about their personal styles. I will then take their styles, and compare them to runway fashion shows. I will show how high fashion trickles down into student styles. This blog would be finding the pulse of fashion in Syracuse. I would not only take photos of fashionable people, but take video interviews, and explore fashion in Syracuse in depth.
2. My next idea is " DIY" style. I will make video montages of styles in runway shows, and then blog about how to create them yourself. One idea I have for it is taking a Christian Louboutin shoe, and showing a step by step process of how I made my own shoes replicate them.
3. My final idea is Steals and Deals. I will show bargains that I come across, because I am the biggest bargain shopper ever. I will blog about them. I could combine this idea with the DIY style, and maybe even combine it with the blog about Syracuse fashion.

Glimpses of Emotions Time Arts Project
Tuesday, September 9, 2008
So for my time arts class, I was given a project to interpret information. Since I am facing one of the most intense experiences of my life right now-- my first few weeks in college--I decided to document my emotions for two weeks. Of course my emotions can be all over the map, but I chose the most prevalent feeling for the day and recorded it. I wondered if my emotions were noticeable to other people and, if so, whether they might label me by their perception of what kind of person I was at that moment. That gave me the idea of "labeling" , myself--before they had a chance-- with my own feeling. So, for two weeks I scribbled my " emotion of the day" somewhere on my body. I tried to not wash the words off, but sometimes had to retrace them after a shower. It was interesting as I'm sure people wondered why in the world I was scribbling strange words on myself. I also wrote a few words ( on paper) explaining why I felt that emotion or what had triggered it. To further document my feelings, I took a photo of my eye and recorded the day and time. I thought this would also help reflect my emotion as, after all, the eye is the window of the soul.

Black fringe bags are a total must have of the season. They do not have to be necessarily Prada, but just any hobo fringe bag is super cute.

I find it ironic that I am always the person people ask love advice from. It always works that I can tell when a person is upset, and of course the problem always has to be some sort of love issue. Was I born to be the next female love guru? When in fact, I am actually lacking in that department? Maybe people can sense I am sympathetic so they think they can spill everything to me. I don't mind at all, in fact it makes me happy to help other people. Maybe its because I don't have any "love" issues, so I can give a new fresh approach.

Time Arts Class
So for my time arts class, I am planning on doing my project based on my body as a canvas. For specified minutes in an hour each day, I will record myself drawing/ painting on my body. I started off with the rings I put on my finger, I took photos of how I would decorate my hands each day. However, it turned out to be my inspiration. I will videotape myself for short increments painting or drawing what I am feeling, almost decorating my body with my inner thoughts and where I put them on my body according to what they were.
