^new one
For the "wild child" image I selected all the black pixels and made them hot pink. However, when this eccentric color appeared on my shirt and in the dark parts of my hair, I cut myself out of the original image and layered it on top of the new, edited one. Then for the image on the right, I used my graduation picture and added a library hall way as the background to represent being "responsible."I decided to use this background because in high school I was always in the library. I take my school work very seriously. I never skipped class nor did I ever hand in assignments late. On a separate note, both my parents had very serious jobs so making doctors appointments, doing the laundry, applying to colleges, and meeting every dead line, was no ones responsibility but my own--as it should be.
The "Wild Child" image actually has a very funny story behind it. For those of you who are reading this that don't go to U of M, the rock behind me is a very symbolic thing here. It gets painted every single night. However, when I was here for Welcome Week, I was not aware of this...so I decided to go and hug the rock because I was so happy to finally be at college. The rock turned out to be extremely wet, thus it had just been painted. At first I was so upset but then I decided to go back and get some more paint to give my newly bought jean shorts that "vintage look." Why not? I thought. This is my attitude about a lot of things, however I never do anything I am not comfortable with. I have a good head on my shoulders, but I love being adventurous and crazy at the same time.
