For today’s Daily Create assignment, the task was to take a photograph of an animal that you think represents your personality. I choose a horse. I feel as if a horse represents my personality because they are strong, stand tall and are free spirited.  I feel a certain kinship with them. I think of myself as strong person, maybe a little to strong at times. And I most certainly consider myself a free spirit, I don’t feel restrained and constricted by boundaries, I just want to run. But the most important trait that I feel we have in common is that we stand tall, no  matter how many times I get knocked down in life… I will get back up. they push threw and strive and embrace their strength and they can carry a lot of weight on their back without breaking.

For one of my last Daily Create assignments the task was to draw a picture of a flower with your eyes closed. So I did! I grabbed a piece of paper and a sharpie and had at it. For me, it was just drawing a bunch of circles with a line, with a touch of guesstimating where I was on the page in proximity to where I started. I am actually surprised that it came out looking like an actual flower. I think I draw a lot better with my eyes closed than I do when they are opened. With that being said, I think that I should stick to that method. Isn’t it purdy?

Today’s Daily Create was to make the creepiest sound you can using props or simply your voice. After reading this assignment I immediately thought about the movie “Darkness Falls“, after watching that movie my fear of the dark multiplied tremendously. Such that, the moment when my feet were hanging over the bed, I would immediately jump back a warp speed. Also if I heard a noise in my room it would take me like 3 steps to get to my brothers room which was 10ft from my bedroom door, I mean I would fly. After seeing that movie that noise sticks in your head, and it still freaks me out until this day. I decided to imitate the noise myself, hopefully it doesn’t creep you out like it did me.

Okay maybe the trailer doesn’t make it seem as scary as it was, but still it was pretty scary for a 13yr old to endure.

The last Daily Create Assignment that I completed this week was to combine two photos of the same place, one taken during the day and one taken at night. For this assignment I opened my front door and took a picture at 8 am and then for the second picture I needed in this assignnent I opened my front door again at 10pm and took a picture again. If I was not taking the picture in the same spot, I was very close. After taking the lasl picture I emailed them to myself to then upload them on fotoflexer, edited it slightly and then saved it my computer.

For this weeks Daily Creates the assignment was to take a picture imitating some classic rage faces. As a child with brothers you get used to making this face… Because lets face it, brothers are super annoying, especially when they take your toys and shoot you in the face with a water gun. To do this assingment I looked at the examples given and proceeded to immitate them. Which I did, took a picture and uploaded it to flckr.

After looking at this picture, it kind of looks like I am having a nervous breakdown/stomach issues.

For this weeks selection of Daily Creates, one of the assingments was to illustrate attraction in a photograph today. I decided to get my daughters bears also known as love bear protectors (because they protect her from aliens) and had them kiss, so that I could take a picture of it and upload it onto flickr. What better way to express attraction, although I am not suggesting that you go around kissing everyone that you are attracted to.

This particular Daily Create was my favorite one to do this week. The assignment (http://tdc.ds106.us/tdc184/) was to go outside and take a picture of a cloud and describe what it looks like, in your own opinion. To do this assignment, my daughter and I went outside, looked up to the sky and that’s when we saw it… The BIG ONE!. The big cloud to us, looked like a tornado, especially since they’ve been all the talk around where we live lately. The cloud was very big and shapped like a funnel, I tried to get all of it in the picture but that was an impossible task.

One of this weeks daily creates was (http://tdc.ds106.us/tdc187/) to record a small video of what was on channel 106. As it turns out, as soon as I turned to the channel my daughter started boucing around in excitement. It was one of her favorite stations! With us being at my aunts house I had no idea what station it was going to be on since we were at my aunts house, luckily for the both of us it was cartoons. Although due to this assignment I got stuck watching Johnny Test instead of my favorite Scooby Doo, I enjoyed doing it.
