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.
