I am probably not wearing enough layers and it is completely my fault. The campus walk is the same as yesterday and the day before, the brick and snow patches illuminated by white winter sunlight, and a tirade of other students walk beside or against me on their way to …
“Another Day”
Well, I chose this assignment from the “Writing Assignments” section of the DS106 website. I kind of randomly picked something that seemed somewhat intriguing to me. This particular assignment focussed on natural beauty and being able to take a moment to truly take the world in for what …
Life moves so fast and it is way too busy. I usually don’t stop to smell the flowers but whenever I see mushrooms I do take pictures. I don’t know why but I think they’re so cool. Every mushroom looks different and each day they change as well. Mushrooms remind …
After I picked this assignment, I started to go through my camera roll, looking for a beautiful picture from one of my travels. I thought I had found the perfect picture, a picture of an island in Thailand, but then I realized that that picture was not just “another day” …

Graphing A Story
Every great story has a rise, a fall, and a conclusion. But not every story has them in that order. Some stories have characters starting off poor and end up wealthy beyond …
I see dead trees. However, that is the only thing that’s dead, if you don’t count the college students. The sun is as bright as it can be. It shines over me, however, I can’t feel its warmth due to the cold air that blasts my face when I walk …
We live in such a beautiful world. Yes, there may be broken things around us but there is something so simple about being able to walk outside wherever you may be and look at the trees or the clouds. I recently just booked an Air B&B in the great smokey …
For this Assignment Bank, I chose to do Another Day (4 stars) to describe the beauty of a snowy night when I was in Akita, Japan for my study abroad. I wanted to describe its beauty because it was the first time I had ever seen snow on my birthday …
In my time living in Fredericksburg, Virginia, I haven’t actually taken time to pick apart its beauty. It’s a large, historic city that hugs the rough Rappahannock River. It is filled with welcoming neighbors who, unlike many cities, actually make an effort to acknowledge your presence. Its downtown restaurants excite …
4. Extra Extra Read All About It (80’s theme & 3 stars)
For this assignment, I watched 25 minutes of Full House (S1:E1.) The directions were to pay special attention to the extras in it. Note their acting skills, what they’re wearing? How many extras did the show have? Did any …
Another Day (4 stars)
After reading this assignment, I went through my photos and came across this picture I took a few years ago in Nevada. This picture does not have any filter or was ever edited, which is hard to find these days. Looking at this picture, it makes …
Every day I go through my regular routine of work, classes, and rehearsals. However, the days that I stop and go outside for a couple minutes are the best.
I sit under a tree and observe all the nature around me. The smell of the grass I sit in refreshes …
Nothing to me is more relaxing than observing some of natures gifts to the world. As a child me and my neighborhood friends used to film almost everything around us. At that time I had no appreciation of the outside world that surrounded me and because this a lot of …
This is the original link to this assignment. I chose to pick my favorite spot when it comes to going outside at my house. This is the view from my screened in porch on the front of my house. I love this view because there is so much to see …
We often as humans get so busy with our schedules and routines we forget to enjoy outside nature. It sounds kind of cheesy but if you think about it we don’t get enough time to appreciate mother nature. On one recent Friday evening I was watching netflix because who doesn’t …
As part of my writing assignments for this week, one of the prompts I have chosen to write about relates to reminding yourself about the beauty in the world. After all, I’m sure most people could agree that it’s easy to get bogged down by negativity in news, politics, world …
This week I tried out the assignment, Another Day from the writing category. The details for this assignment is as follows:
“People often forget about how beautiful the world is, the way the trees blow in the wind, how flowers bloom in the spring and how amazing the grass feels …
“People often forget about how beautiful the world is, the way the treese blow in the wind, how flowers bloom in the spring and how amazing the grass feels on our feet. We come from a generation where the only beauty we actually see is over an electronic. Go outside …
So, for those who don’t know, I have a plethora of dogs. Four in actuality, six to be technical. Four are mine and live with me, two more are my brothers, but he travels quite a bit so I watch them for him.
Anyways, I always walk my dogs. Usually …
For this writing assignment I decided to do another day. (This is a 4 star writing assignment). So as many of you know I play tennis for the school and am constantly competing. However in my free time I love to play golf. Golf is one of those sports where …
I stepped outside a few minutes ago to take in my surroundings. I admit, it is not something that I do often anymore- but I appreciate the opportunity to do so every chance I get. My days are often a jumbled mess of deadlines, appointments, meetings, classes, and between all …
This picture was taken in San Diego, California. I was on a NAVY ship and the clouds were kissing the ocean. Being able to walk through the midst and feel the moisture in the thick midst, almost making it unc

I am coming at this project a bit sideways. I began to think about this assignment early in the week. I spent some time walking slowly around campus and asking myself how I would take on this assignment. However, I have since created 2 other assignments that tied into my …
