After I was sick with a fever all week, my friend Deon and I decided to do a paint night. We wanted to finish the paintings we've been working on. I've been trying to finish this piece from my favorite movie the Wind Rises by Hayao Miyazaki (if you watch it I recommend you listen to the original Japanese version). It's a scene where Naoko is struck with tuberculosis and I wanted to contrast the imagery of the blood with a beautiful nature scene.

This past Wednesday, my friends and I went to "Terpzone" to spend time with our friend, Wesley, for his birthday.

Earlier this week, I attended the first General Body Meeting (GBM) for WMUC Radio near the South Campus Diner. I was interested in hosting a radio show for quite some time, and I finally got my DJ approval application earlier in the semester. I was really excited to see what was in store for me.

The sign outside which directs students to the studio. It's nothing much, but it gets the job done.
Rosa Pyo, the General Manager of WMUC. She's considered as the "leader" of the station and is able to coordinate events and collaborations with other groups. She's also a really fun and outgoing person.
These two students look on as the people in the front have some major announcements to say.
New and old faces come together for the meeting, as everyone looks around to see all of the people that attended and wondering what's to be heard that is important.
The girl on the left has pretty interesting hair. I actually like how it looks; the colors kind of remind me of fire.

Photo Assignment #4

For this assignment, I went and photographed the University of Maryland's women basketball team as took on Purdue at home. A UMD WBB alumna that plays for the Washington Mystics came back and visited with her 2019 WNBA Championship trophy. UMD won the game commandingly and improved to 24-2 on the season. 

This was a picture of the scene when each UMD starter was being introduced; everyone in the crowd was given red glow-sticks to shake while the lights were dimmed.


This was an overall of the crowd that was present while UMD was on offense on the other side of the floor, near the band.

Here is the WNBA Championship trophy that was won last season. 

Here is the UMD Men's Basketball National trophy which is constantly on display at the Xfinity Center.

This was a picture of the UMD alumna posing with some fans.

For my event, I went to see Demetrius Harmon. He was a Vine star and now he is a motivational speaker and has his own clothing brand called "You Matter".

The line was very long to get into the venue!

There is a huge crowd here to see Demetrius

Demetrius is a laid back speaker and he is very conversational.  He is very good at relating to kids our age.

For this assignment, I chose to document The World Is Yours which was the title of a guest speaker event, featuring internet celebrity and mental health activist Demetrius Harmon.

This overall capture shows the location identifier, as the name and four pillars are only seen with the Stamp Student Union.
Here we have a panorama showing the crowd eagerly awaiting the guest to arrive, featuring a wide array of colors.
He's here! The red lighting, red of his outfit, and the red of the logo all offer a unique contrast to the black background.
When I checked my watch as I was leaving the restroom, I realized the battery was broken. Luckily I had my phone.
The Kermit statue in front of the exit is definitely a wild character, catching me by surprise but the bright green appearance is unique.
