End of Semester Summary

This semester was far from the norm which made it very unique. I liked this semester because it gave me a lot of time to study more of the material due to the fact that everything was online. Normally, I used to have to travel nearly two hours to reach Hunter. The online classes were a huge advantage for me so I enjoyed it.
Working on the projects in quarantine was difficult because it limited how much space I was able to access and I was limited to only working with my little sister. I focused both projects two and three on her.
Our lab instructor(Jeremy) was an amazing teacher and I loved his instruction. He is honestly one of the kindest/engaging teachers I have come across.
The general professor was a great teacher and I loved the way he broke different concepts down. He is an amazing teacher.
Overall, the class was enjoyable even though the majority of it was at home. I would like to thank all the teachers for readjusting during this time, without them none of the instruction would be possible.

Project 3 Story Board

With these pictures, I will be making a story on how a girl is trying to find success in her room when everything seems to be against her, especially in the current pandemic we are going through. She wants to be a successful makeup artist however her environment is causing many problems. This environment mainly consisting of her family, her own self-doubt, and the current pandemic. This story will mainly unfold in her room because she is constantly in it dwelling with her own inner thoughts and the thoughts of everyone else. If she will overcome this is yet to be seen.

Project 2 Description and Questions

I will be interviewing my little sister on how she felt after her best friend moved away. The story I will be telling is how she was impacted after she went through her first real loss of a friendship. The beginning of this story will illustrate just how close her friend Ashley and she were. The middle will consist of how my sister was impacted after she lost Ashley. The end will portray how she moved on and the tools she used to do so. The larger themes this story addresses are the importance of our emotions, how relationships are formed, and how to move on from emotional distress.

Questions I plan on asking:

1. Why was Ashley so important to you?
2. What are some fond memories you remember of her?
3. If you could hold on to one memory with her for the rest of your life, which would it be?
4. Do you have any regrets about the way you treated her?
5. Is there something you wish you had the chance to tell her face to face?
6. Was there a time you did not like her? If so, why?
7. How did you two become so close?
8. Do you think you can ever truly move past losing her?
9. How were you impacted after she left?
10. What was the last thing you said to her?
