Why am I going to Italy?

     Tomorrow at 5pm I will be on a plane leaving for what may be the biggest adventure of my life so far. I will be learning a years worth of Italian in one summer and I will be reading Dante's Divine Comedy. I have cried so much realizing I'm leaving my family for 2 months, to be on my own, in a unfamiliar country, with people I just meet in class. This terrifies me, but I took on this adventure to prove to myself that I can be independent and survive without my family by my side all the time. This adventure forces me to rely on myself.  I cannot come home whenever I get frustrated and scared. I hope by the end of this experience I will be changed for the better. I'm sorry this I such a deep wordy post, and in case you haven't caught on this blog will be devoted to Italy for the next few months. This is the next big step in my life and I hope you follow me through it and give me some support during my times of struggle.

Final Series

My final project of the quarter was an open topic.  It had to be three images all tied together with one idea.  I chose the idea of color.  Here are the photos I chose for my final and so I really liked.
This is Image 1 of my series.
