Q4 Botany Benchmark

Posted by Dior Seidle in Botany · Aziz · y1 on Thursday, May 24, 2018 at 10:29 am
Comparative Agriculture and Green Design

For the Q4 botany benchmark, we  compared 4 different types of gardening and to create more food secure future in our community. I think the project was interesting, but for more so the tower garden part because it seems like the most effect out of all the ways to garden to me. Styles of the tower gardening, urban farming, crop rotation and self-water systems all seem like better ways to garden in order to make the plants grow healthier and more tasteful.

Q4 Dior Seidle's Artwork

For my artwork, I was inspired to create a silhouette drawing that I got inspiration from Kara Walker. I  drew a women with long curly hair that is surrounded by a colorful and bright background. I wanted to make a contrasting theme. I want to communicate the piece by showing how a person’s environment is what brings color to oneself and I feel like I did that really well for the piece. To create this, I have made it with pencils, erasers, spray on adhesive, tracing paper, micron pens, watercolors and acrylic paint. I sketched everything with the pencils and and touched it with the eraser for the centerpiece. I then painted it with black & white acrylic paint. I then used thick paper to draw the design for the background, outline it with a micron pen after coloring it with the water color. After paint the rest of the piece, I used the spray on adhesive to attach the cut outs of the water color piece. I found that I really enjoy the silhouette drawing with a colorful background. I feel like it’s a style that i really enjoy.

My process was honestly easy to follow. I know I wanted to draw a person with flowing hair and and mostly gained some inspiration from the movie Pocahontas for the song color in the wind. I took the song title literally though. IK drew a girl with flowing hair and created a colorful background. This made me want to create something light and colorful to fit the image that I wanted.For the watercolor, I learned that less water was better for the color to flow on the paper.  It made the color look more smooth. I learned how to use the spray on adhesive for the first time if I even decide to do it again. I’m proud of the overall outcome of it. I feel like it looks really good and I improved from the last time I did this. I wouldn’t change anything at all for this drawing because. In conclusion, I feel like I learned how to get more confident with doing silhouette drawings. I feel like this can be one of my styles for when I draw just like Kara Walker. I won’t always draw this but then at the same time it isn’t a style I would do all the time.

For this capstone project, I created a PowerPoint presentation on the steps to become a veterinarian. I wanted to create a capstone project for this because this was a career that i have inspired to be for years. I have been wanting to be a veterinarian since the age of six years old and it is a career that I still enjoy. With this capstone, I wish to inform people on the profession that I was interested to for so long and it would be an incredible thing to at least get people to consider doing something like this as their future career. Convincing someone to become a veterinarian would be amazing to do because that is exactly what I want to achieve. Throughout my presentation, I tried to give some of the simplest of steps to help guide someone that would like to become a veterinarian. If I can not do that, then I simply wish to inform others about my and possibly other people’s career choice to hold respect for them as others would respect different types of career choices and future professions. I have tried to thoroughly experience the steps from the course to take to how to possibly opt out of it if they want to. After this project, I feel like this research has became a refresher. The reason why I feel this way is because I was able to go over information that give me  more things to think about for my future career.

Dior's Still Life

Posted by Dior Seidle in Art 1 · Hertz · d1 on Monday, January 22, 2018 at 2:19 pm

For this project, I drew a still life drawing of  a vase and a seashell . In this work, the two objects that were observed to draw and shade the values and contrast of the two objects. This work really does communicate any personal experience this time other than it shows how I have possibly struggled to do things such as shading. The tools that I’ve used were a regular pencil that I used to sketch and outline the shape of the objects.  Then I also used the various of shading pencils to create a greater effect for the drawing. Also used an eraser to touch up and fix mistakes. I don’t really have any previous work that relates because I usually would add color to my drawings but this time I didn’t. I wanted to try to shading in a different way this time around. My process wasn’t as long as the other things I drew. I really didn’t experiment with trying to draw and practice with other objects other than the vase and seashell. Each time I drew it again, I noticed that I got better at identifying the things about it. So by the time it got to finishing the final product, I felt more relaxed and comfortable drawing it because I was finally able to resemble that original objects.

There is an artist named T.S. Abe that I found myself to like. Even though their pencil drawings are animated, they still were able to capture the values and lighting for their drawings which I really like ( https://www.tsabe.co.uk/ ). When shading, I learned that it’s important to try and get all the shadows then and there because the lighting for the image can change the next time you draw, which I found frustrating. So with doing this, it helped me learn to focus more on the lighting in order to get the best and less frustration in the long run. At one point, I used a small piece of paper to get a smudging effect on the vase just to make it look better to me. I’m most proud of how much effort I put into shading because I was struggling with that part the most but I finally got it in the end. I honestly wouldn’t change anything because I don’t believe I can do a better job at the shading. Through completing this project, I learned skills and experience when it came to shading objects with just pencils and it helped me realize that it wasn’t as difficult as I thought it was, it was only different. So thanking this ended up being a pretty good project for myself that I enjoyed.

Alternate Version

Posted by Dior Seidle in Art 1 · Hertz · d1 on Monday, October 30, 2017 at 2:45 pm

I made a visual representation of myself that is completely immersed in African culture. This would be the reason why I have a book of African history, the kinara ( candleholder ) with the candles, as well as the crown since we derived from kings and queens.I want to communicate that I didn’t forget about my african history or lineage and that’s why i drew some prominent themes.The tools that I used was a pencil to sketch the drawing, a eraser to remove mistakes, micron pens to outline the whole drawing & color pencils and markers to color the rest of my drawing. I don’t think this really relate to any of my previous work because I never did work on that represented the  African culture before and that’s the reason why I did this. So when I was creating this, I  thought it was unique because I was working on something that I had information on and then I decided to make an alternative version of myself, indulging in African culture and holidays because I actually appreciated and respected them. That’s when everything went well for me because everything flowed from me sketching the drawing to coloring it,so my process was really simple and easy.

I didn’t have an artist that had inspired me to draw this piece and I really didn’t search the internet for ideas. I just knew what I wanted to draw, so I drew it. The only technique that i liked was adding texture to the hair for the drawing because once I colored over it, it made the hair look better to me. I didn’t really learn any new technique because I didn’t do anything different. I’m proud of the end result of the project because it looks really good to me and it just pops and stands out from the rest so I really like it. I actually don’t think I would change anything about this because i really just love the image as a whole, so i don’t want to change it at all.In conclusion, I learned that i still have a passion for African culture even though it had been years since I last indulged in this kind of things.

Ignite Presentation

Posted by Dior Seidle in Intro to Design and Multmiedia on Monday, June 5, 2017 at 2:01 pm

Slide 1:

 

Slide 2: For Quarter 1, we had to create a website to display our resumé, featured projects and contact information. It was designated for colleges and possible jobs to make it.

 

Slide 3: The overall vision for my website was to just create something visually appealing and calming. I didn’t want the website to be cramped or extremely bright colors. I just wanted it to be peaceful and simple.

 

Slide 4: This was successful because I just believe it did that. It looks calming because of the light blues and the images of the sky that I have taken with my phone. Nothing is cluttered and everything is easy to read.

 

Slide 5: For Quarter 2, I choose the image editing project. The reason why I chose this project is because I believe that image editing was an interesting topic and I was always messing with digital art from time to time.

 

Slide 6: The overall vision was for there suppose to be a message for true beauty for oneself. I wanted someone to see how I portrayed or most so viewed beauty in my eyes.

 

Slide 7: I think this project was successful, if not my most successful project that I did. The reason why is because I just believe that everything came well together with the images that I used and I just loved the end result.

 

Slide 8: For Quarter 3, I chose the video editing project because I wanted to try making a video based on timelapse with what artists have done.

 

Slide 9: The overall vision for this project was to make everything seem comfortable and almost easy going. With videos like this, you want it to be simple with very little transitions so they focus on the art.

 

Slide 10: I think this project was okay because I believe that I could have done better, but by the time I wanna to start over, it was too late. I would want to start this over completely too.

 

Slide 11: I chose to revise the Quarter 3 project. The only thing I wanted to change was a video in the project because I thought something else would look better.

 

 

Slide 12: I chose this project because I honestly thought this was the easiest thing to change compared to the others. I had to think about something to draw for the new image and then I recorded myself doing it.  

 

Slide 13: However, with the new video that I wanted to use, it made the video shorter. I wanted to have it to be longer than two minutes, not less.  So in all honest it just looks the same.

 

Slide 14:During this year, I think that my high point was the image editing project. The reason why is because I just really loved the outcome of the project because it was really my favorite project that I’ve done.

 

Slide 15:In area growth, I don’t think that I really growed in anything. I feel like I really didn’t improve that much at all. Maybe I improved a little in image editing but that’s it.


Slide 16:I could use image editing in a way to create digital for once. I could potentially make profit off of selling these art pieces for money that could benefit on the side for myself.

 

Slide 17:In all honesty, I thought of a project for image editing where you create an image that tells a story about yourself and the others have to guess whose it is.

 

Slide 18:Number one tip is to be on time for the checkpoints. If you don’t turn them in on time, your grade you gradually start to drop, so I would really stress about that to the next class.

 

Slide 19: Another tip would be to actually put some effort into their project because you can turn the checkpoint in on time but if your final project is trash, then don’t expect a perfect grade.

 

Slide 20: I honestly can’t think of another tip because I feel like the first one was the most important. I feel like that’s really the only thing that matters at this point so just follow the first tip.

Q3 Artist Statement

Posted by Dior Seidle in Art 2 · Hertz · d1 on Monday, March 27, 2017 at 2:27 pm
IMG_0628
IMG_0628

What I have created with two original characters that I have created based on one of them wanting to be something that they weren’t and bring someone else. They wanted to be strong when they are seen as weak. They other was strong but had weak points. That’s why I created it as a Yin & Yang type image.The overall vision is that people can be similar, but people just hide it well. You  can be seen as weak, but you have a strong heart or vice versa. I wanted people to know they we all have similar abilities but some are more prominent than others.  I feel as though people will notice the yin & yang situation and understand the meaning for it first but they won’t notice the meanings that I placed within the entire images like the flowers with their individual meanings that represent the characters.I think I achieved a story for the characters that I create for myself and for others to see. I also think that I achieved something relatable if I explained it to them.I feel like I pushed myself a little more than usually because I usually avoid drawing anatomy because it isn’t my strong point in drawing. It shows that I’m trying to push myself to improve and do better.With contemporary art, my work is similar to this artist  ( Rebecca Gray Smith ) because  they did a similar yin yang concept that it had as well as the message it portrayed.

When I started making this project, I struggled to create a final image and then I finally went to the yin yang idea because I wanted them to be opposite of each other almost. After that, I struggled to draw the bodies that are flipped on both sides because it was something I wasn’t use to. Once that was finished, I breezed through everything else.I reflects on how everyone can have similar things in common but it takes a lot of digging to find the attributes, personalities , etc., of another person. It reflects on how I noticed that a person can be viewed as one thing but with closer friends and family, they’re something different.I think it can influence people to not judge others as much as they do. They may not even realize that the two have something in common based off of the physical image, which is wrong. Of course, everyone judges, but to verbally express your opinion to their face isn’t right.I don’t think any of the techniques I used was really important to it because they techniques I used were little basic. I had used to hatching for the inner circle to create a more of a drastic effect on the drawing. I also drew thicker lines for the outlines of the face and thinner lines for the small details since a thick would mess up the work.I think I only learned how to create better anatomy for males which I appreciate because that it my weak point.

Overall, I think I did the best with this project because I pushed myself to do something different and something that I struggled with. I would never get better if I never tried to do it. I’m also happy with the fact that I had had created those characters in such a short amount of time and had created story for them that wasn’t only good, but how relatable it was to me. I still feel like people can connect with it if only I explained it so not everyone might understand it but the basic points, which I think is good enough.

Quarter 3 Project

Posted by Dior Seidle in Intro to Design and Multmiedia on Friday, March 24, 2017 at 1:45 pm

The project that I chose was video editing. The goal for the project was to create a 1 to 3 minute video that on content that we have choose. During this process, I hoped to learn how usual people make videos and movies that are produced. I created a video on how to create your own art style because I feel like as an artist this is something that we all need to work on.When going through this process, I thought about what exactly I would want to do and what is something that wouldn’t be difficult for me to do. Once I came up with what I want to do, then what I want to create it on. After that I tried to find fair use photos to use. After that I had to get videos and other things in order to fully make my video.Some successes were the videos that I have recorded of me drawing for the video of the time-lapse. The video was clear and steady and you could have seen everything that I did . Some failures is that I wish I could have brought back more of my own music because I feel like the song I was originally gonna chose would have made it better.I learned how to timelapse videos for my drawing and now if I ever wanted to do that again if I make a Youtube video of me drawing, I know how to do it then.I learned that if I have the flexibility for a project, I will always incorporate  some sort of artistic piece because that is what I did for this project too. Art comes easy to me because it just flows so I really feel comfortable in doing so.

I would just make sure that I transfer my own music because would have been better to me.I would tell them to not procrastinate because I procrastinated a little but even that light bit had messed up everything for me. Time management is key.I kind of inspired me to make a Youtube channel just because of the time lapse. The tool I used was WeVideo and it helped me create my message better because it all came together pretty well for me if I do say so myself. I feel this way because I honestly took time to make this better for myself and I know that I could do better, but at this point I don’t have much time left for that. I used tools like overlapping the backgrounds with the text as well as adding the transitions because it made everything flow good and it made it look professional.

Quarter 2 Benchmark

Posted by Dior Seidle in Art 2 · Hertz · d1 on Wednesday, January 18, 2017 at 9:42 pm

I created this work to focus more on the background. I always focus on the centerpiece and never put enough dedication to the background. I thought this would be a perfect chance to be able to do such things.While creating this work, I wanted people to understand some of the things that can associate with a person without the actual face. I feel like I wanted the background to speak for itself without the help of the centerpiece for once. I will honestly admit that some people could be confused if they don’t understand the character or seen the show, so I would say it’s the clearest communication for the viewers. However, for people who do recognize the show, then they will understand. I think I achieved ( well as far as I know) blending the colors well together as well as bring das detailed as possible for the background.It relates only in terms of it having an Anime theme, but it’s still different as in how I colored it. In terms of contemporary art, I would use the image of Kay Bradner artwork called Crew of Four  because we did very similar things. For both of are images, we wanted the background to talk for itself rather than the people in it.  The background for both can also has color that is can attract the viewer due to vibrant/soothing colors. ( https://www.artsy.net/artwork/kay-bradner-crew-of-four )

Before actually making my artwork, I had searched for a character to draw and I made sure to practice on drawing the image, especially since I was drawing it on a much smaller space than I’m used to( as in size). The I took my time to draw my sketch on the canvas and I colored that part in black for the silhouette. Afterwards, I colored in the background and started to create pieces that that would represent the character and I kept going until I was satisfied. I wouldn’t really say that my work reflects the world that we live in, but in my own life it does. The reason why is because it represents a show that I really enjoy as well as a character that I enjoy a lot. The character is a person who knows what he wants and works hard for his goals and struggles to make himself better in the future, which is something that I see as important.My artwork can’t really make a big impact on the world in any way and I purposely didn’t make it for that reason. I made this work to influence to simply do better in everything, including my skills in art now. I believe that blending in a drawing is important to do especially when you are using different colors and you want the image to almost seem realistic in a way. I feel like if you can blend the colors together, it gives such a great look to the artwork when you do so.I don’t believe that there‘s something in particular that new that I experienced for this project and I sticked to things that I know well and trusted myself with. The only thing new was the strong focus on the background more than the center image.

Overall, I believe that this project that I created was enjoyable to do and I feel as though this project was more so made to be relaxing. I didn’t create something that was going to be difficult for me to do, but moreso something to just home into  basic art skills which I found soothing. I also created art that would moreso relate to me and understood by few, while other might have a difficult time to understand it, which I think is completely fine. I'll probably say that this isn’t my best work, but I believe that it’s still good art. However, I do know next time, I will truly challenge myself to do something better and hope for it to better than my previous artwork.

Exponential decay is when a group of something starts to decline over the total value that decreases over a constant rate of time. The larger he decay is the more the quantity vanish more rapidly in the graph.
The blue domain area represents the time I went to sleep during the two days the caffeine research was getting recorded. I went to sleep at 10:00pm and woke up 7:00am. You can see the I had intakes some caffeine before I went to sleep and you can see how the caffeine in my body was decreasing each hour. 
Some key features you could see is that in this seven-piece wise functions, no matter how much caffeine I intake over the time, it will never go over the initial amount I started out with. Meaning I didn't consume anything that would be enough to go pass 250. 
Based on my research, I say that you shouldn't drink caffeine or limit yourself once you know how much the stimulant of it can affect you.  It takes only 32mg to 200mg for caffeine to cause a minor stimulant. Someone can have just 80mg and can absorb it as a major assumption while others may not. People should know their limit with people and their amount of caffeine that they can do. 
Caffeine in your body will be eliminated 13% per hour. All of the equations in this research used this percentage to create this exponential decay. Every time you intake some more caffeine, the amount of caffeine will get larger and start to decay again from this new amount.

Image Editing Project

Posted by Dior Seidle in Intro to Design and Multmiedia on Wednesday, January 18, 2017 at 9:05 am
Background3
Background3

The project that I chose was image editing. For this project, you had to edit an image to tell a story or to convey a message. For my own project, I chose to tell a story about myself on how I view my physical appearance as. When completing this project, I wanted to learn how to better my previous attempts of image editing using different tools. When I first started this project, I was trying to figure out what images I wanted to use and what message I wanted to convey. I honestly changed my original  images because my original images that I was gonna use didn’t have a clear message. The newer images that I choose telled a story to example the conflicting feeling on how I myself as beautiful.  Then I started working on an online photo editor (Pixlir) and I struggled to get some things to work. However, I soon started to get the hang of the tools after I started to put my image together.Some of my successes was when I was able to blend the images well together and simply knowing how to edit certain images instead of the whole image. My failures were simply messing up and deleting the entire image that I made. It wasn’t difficult to overcome, so I simply just stop making this mistake. I learned how to blend and blur other images into each other which I found to be very helpful for me. The reason why is because when I blend the images well, it makes that image look like it was always apart of the original image.I learned that I have a good habit of learning things quickly and understanding them when it comes to technology and I felt like it showed through this project that I have did.

I would want to use more of my own images that I have taken for image editing than having to go through all the troubles of finding copyright free images to use. I can only tell them not to get frustrated when something doesn’t go their way when editing. Trust me, there's a reason why they created the undo button.This project inspired me to try more image editing because I found this project really fun to do and to create.I honestly don’t believe that their was a certain tool that really helped me to convey this message. The only thing that I can think of would be the merge tool because it helps make everything look like one image. I would also say the layers tool really helped me out because if I messed up something when editing that’s far from repair, I can simply delete that layer instead of redoing the whole idea.

Media and Design Project

For my project, I had to create make an online portfolio of my work and my résumé. When completing this project, I had to first think of a theme for my website. Once that was done, I was able to finish my About me page and soon the Résumé and Featured Projects came into onto the website and I got everything done really quick.I had to change the background multiple times for copyright reasons. Soon, I changed this into an image that I have taken instead of finding one through search engines.I learned how to navigate well through the website maker in an efficient time. I learned that I really like an artistic type style for myself and it reflected through my website.

I would probably do a different theme and play around with the controls, along with the other things that I can possibly do with the website provider I used. The reason why is because I would be able to create something better than what I have with more experience. I would tell other people to play around more with the different things available on the eix website because this was something that I simply didn’t do. I don’t believe that I was inspired quite much for this project, but I know that with this project, it made me wanting to express myself even more than I do now. All pictures and images were personally taken from myself for this website I have created. I believe my message on the homepage has really dictated the mediums for my website because I didn’t think much for the mediums until I figured out my message.

Color wheel: Dream Catcher Edition

Posted by Dior Seidle in Art 2 · Hertz · d1 on Monday, October 31, 2016 at 2:51 pm

The reason why I decided to draw a dreamcatcher because they are used induce positive dreams and push away all negative dreams away. I enjoy having peaceful sleep and positive dreams because then I’m able to have an enjoyable next day. Overall I think I did this very well, but I do believe that this is good artwork, but I could have did a little better on the background. I expect my audience to notice the primary, secondary, tertiary and tints as well as the object that I drew. They should see how I worked the different colors into the dream catcher. There  is nothing right now that relates to this image, but I really enjoy the idea of me doing something new that I haven’t done before. I don’t think this piece really fits with contemporary art, but it could possible fit a little due to the colors.It can fit with the history of art because there was always color and color is still used in this time period as it has always been today.

It doesn’t really fit with other works that I have did that much other than the colors that is done, but I never really drew something like this before.I looked over a few pictures off of google to get an idea, but nothing more. I already had an idea of it honestly when I was thinking of exceeding expectations for this project.I honestly wasn’t influenced by anyone for this project, but I was simply influenced by exceeding expectations by finding other circular things to use as a color wheel for myself.I find it important to always have the primary colors present when painting because you can make any color as long as you have those three colors on your palette.I learned that I don’t always have to buy a lot of paint in order to create new colors for a picture that  I’m painting at the time.

For this project, I just believe that as a good and individually, we could have done better. For this group, we didn't have very good communication and our PowerPoint just wasn't satisfying enough for my taste. We should have did more and we even had some English in our PowerPoint with English times. We could have done better and I believe that everyone didn't work as hard as they should, but that's only an opinion. If we were given the chance to redo this, I would look over and edit more than I should have and had made a better video because I hated looking at that as well.

Poetry Project

Posted by Dior Seidle in SPANISH 2 - Moran - A on Friday, April 22, 2016 at 12:17 pm

El/La Poeta: Octavio Paz


El autor que he elegí fue Octavio Paz. Él nació en treinta y uno de Marzo el año  novecientos catorce y murió  en diecinueve de Abril el año mil novecientos noventa y ocho. En una edad joven, Paz expuso a  literatura, debido a su abuelo. Paz era de una familia de escritorios y él irá seguir en sus el pasos, ya que era la tradición de la familia. En la edad de diecinueve, él hizo su primera colección de poemas llamada, “ Luna silvestre.¨ Él pronto entró en los servicios diplomático en mil novecientos cuarenta y cinco y más tarde convertirse en el Embajador de México en India de Mil novecientos sesenta y dos  mil novecientos sesenta y ocho. Ser hábil en ambos poesía y prosa, era difícil encontrar la profesión camino. Tan poesía como “ Piedra de sol ¨ ( mil novecientos cincuenta y siete ) y alguno crítico trabajadores como ¨ El Laberinto de la soledad ¨ ( mil novecientos cincuenta ), haciendo de él un maestro del idioma. Él recibió muchos premios por su trabajo, que incluye el premio nobel de literatura. Octavio Paz fue un hombre de muchos talentos.

Como una niña de dieciséis años, no hay muchas cosas que he terminado. Pero sé que puedo lograr todos ellos. Yo tuve gané muchos premios de mi escuela anterior y yo estaba ayudando los profesores en la escuela muchos veces. Yo había superar en mis clases y tienen alta notas en proyectos. Mi favorita clase para ayudar fue la classe de arte, especialmente el jardín de infancia y clases de primer grado. Yo había participado en actividades extracurriculares tales como poesía y coro. Sin embargo, sé que iré a la Universidad, especialmente Tecnología de Virginia. Voy a tener un grado en medicina y voy a tener mi propio negocio.Para mi vida personal, yo generalmente se quedan en casa. Voy a escuchar música, hacer alguna dibujando y intentando cocinar comidas. Mi vida es única en mi ojos.


Movimiento

Si tú eres la yegua de ámbar

             yo soy el camino de sangre

Si tú eres la primer nevada

             yo soy el que enciende el brasero del alba

Si tú eres la torre de la noche

             yo soy el clavo ardiendo en tu frente

Si tú eres la marea matutina

             yo soy el grito del primer pájaro

Si tú eres la cesta de naranjas

             yo soy el cuchillo de sol

Si tú eres el altar de piedra

             yo soy la mano sacrílega

Si tú eres la tierra acostada

             yo soy la caña verde

Si tú eres el salto del viento

             yo soy el fuego enterrado

Si tú eres la boca del agua

             yo soy la boca del musgo

Si tú eres el bosque de las nubes

             yo soy el hacha que las parte

Si tú eres la ciudad profanada

             yo soy la lluvia de consagración

Si tú eres la montaña amarilla

             yo soy los brazos rojos del liquen

Si tú eres el sol que se levanta

             yo soy el camino de sangre


En este poema, Octavio Paz fue hablando sobre los altibajos, especialmente para un pareja. No relación es perfecto pero creo que lo que hace que una relación fuerte.  Personalmente, yo sé que mi relación no será perfecta pero pero esta bien. Una perfecta relación es aburrido. Ahora el poema es muy único. La manera cómo él redactadas las estrofas fueron diferente. Octavio usó muchos metáfora que pueden confunden en primera. Las más veces he leído el poema, las más yo comprendo. Octavio Paz es un hombre que sabe cómo escribir muy interesante la literatura con su juego de palabras. Él  era un hombre de muchos talentos







La contraparte a mi mente


Si tú eres la fundación estable

Yo soy la tormenta vulnerable que pasa por

Si tú eres la brisa de veranos

Yo soy el gemido del invierno

Si tú eres la primavera la primera flor

Yo soy última hoja naranja de otoño

Si tú eres el sol luminoso punto

Yo soy la luna desconocida sombra

Si tú eres el mundo de la norma

Yo soy extrema del mundo

Si tú eres el posesivo parientes

Yo soy el adolescente tolerante

Si tú eres el corazón de mi mundo

Yo soy el alma a su persona

Si tú eres mi todo

Yo soy simplemente tuyo


I would honestly believe that this is one of my favorite projects that we did. I enjoyed doing this project because I always enjoyed writing poetry and reading poetry as well. Not only that, but this was the easiest project that she has every given and there wasn't any reason for me to do this late or not turn it in at all( even though I turned it.) I would only say that I should have did more research for my poet to make sure that everything was translated in spanish and English official because I had to change my poet because everything wasn't translated.

Reflection

For this project, we had to make a news broadcast in Spanish. I believe that this project was fun as in the whole idea of this project, but I do believe that this was a bit stressful. I only found it stressful when majority didn't like are finished project, so we had to rush and make a new video that was more to this classes standards. We had planned on when we would record, but our time management did cause us problems, but we we're quick to solve it and turn in the project on time. We were able to use the concepts multiple times and I think we did pretty good when recording. We also came into problems with communication, but we had to put it aside and get this project done. If we had the chance, I would want to do this over because I still think we could have done better, but the time that we had wouldn't allow us anymore time to waste.

Children's Spanish Book

Posted by Dior Seidle in SPANISH 2 - Moran - A on Friday, January 22, 2016 at 1:51 pm
​​For this project, we were given a partner and we had to create a children's book based on the child going to school and getting sick, the child getting sick and staying home, or the child going to the doctor's. We had certain requirements to reach and it had to be completely in Spanish. We had to have a cover and a title. One person was the author and the other was the artist. This was the most difficult project that we gotten, but I'm still proud of the result with my partner.

Día de los Muertos

Posted by Dior Seidle in SPANISH 2 - Moran - A on Friday, January 22, 2016 at 11:50 am

For this project, you have to make a sugar skull and mask that represents a loved one that passed. You then had to write a short reflection in English. After you did the reflection, you had to do a eulogy in Spanish about your loved one. I believe that this project was meaningful because I was able to think about good memories about my grandmother Arlene.


Reflection


The person who had passed away was a woman named Arlene “Apple” Seidle. The connection I had with her was special. I always loved going to visit her on weekdays and weekends and I would have probably visited her more than I visit my best friend now. But of course that is different now since she is gone.

This woman, Arlene “Apple” Seidle, is my grandmother, but I always called her my MomMom. She was my Father’s mother and she was seventy years old when she had passed. She had passed away on July 4th surprisingly and I was completely devastated when I had gotten the news from my father after his last visit with her. My MomMom was so special to me and she meant so much to me, especially after all the time we spent together. So the feelings that I had experienced that day were completely indescribable. For the first time in my life, I had felt true heartbreak and I knew that it was something that I can’t simply do over. It had taken me a few weeks to register that I will never be able to visit her no more and get to see her smile. She meant so much to me and it’s funny how fast happiness can be snatched away.

The reason why I had made my sugar skull in remembrance of my MomMom is unforgettable. Once she enters your life, it is so difficult to forget her wise words and kind smile. She had a lot of friends and had many family members who she cared for, even when they did stupid and hurtful things. Her door was always open for people in need and she always tried to help everyone the best she can. It’s funny how she called me her angel, but she more angelic than me. But now I wanna strive to become more like her and I always try think like her or do something just like her, so I can never forget. So making this sugar skull in remembrance of her is just another way for me to remember her and I’m thankful for that.

The mask and the sugar skull both symbolizes who my MomMom as a person. The red that I have on both the sugar skull and the mask represents her favorite color. Oh, how much she loved the color red. Her house was always filled with it, including her clothes and some of the makeup she wore. However, the color red fitted her so well and always believed that the color red was meant for her. An angel who loves the color red she was. The purple that you see on the mask and sugar skull symbolizes her creativity, her wisdom, her peace, and her independence. She tries to not be a “burden”, but she never was.  She also knew the right things to say to cheer us up and she always had such a creative mind and a creative taste for clothes the older she gotten, but we all loved her the same.  On the sugar skull and mask, I had colored the teeth gold because she had once in a lifetime golden smile. I’m completely serious when I say that her smile literally brighten up someone's day, making them have a better day than the one the begin with. Her  four children, including my father has her smile and that was passed down to me as well because every time I see a relative, they say that I have “ a smile the reminds them of Apples.” At first, I didn’t think my smile was special, but the older I get, the more of a resemblance I see. The brown that’s outlined around the mask is a certain shade of brown that I use only to represent her skin color. Last but not least, the gold that’s in certain places on the mask and that’s on majority of the sugar skull represents her overall aura, which I believe is golden.

Día de los Muertos had really opened of my mind even more than it already was for the loved ones that had passed away in my life. The reason why I said is because it just another helpful reminder that I should never forget my deceased loved one because sometimes that person is unforgettable and personally for me, if I ever forgotten who Arlene “Apple” Seidle, then I would never be able to forgive myself.

  1. What was the happiest moment of your life? "This happiest moment of my life is when I won an all expense vacation to Hawaii. Was it fun? It was amazing. I stayed at a 5 star hotel, I ate amazing food, the people are nice, and I got 3,000 dollars to spend.
  2. What are the most important lessons you've learned in life? I learned...who your real friends are and how to be yourself even in the most darkest times. You might be ridiculed  about the things that you do, but you should just look up high and think to yourself that I'm the best that I can be. And do you think that you became the best that your can be right now? Well, not yet because I believe that I'm getting there.
  3. Tell me a story about your name. My mom named me after a famous poet named Maya Angelo because my mom loves Maya Angelo  and I love her as well. She changed it to spell " Mya" because she wants me to have originality.

Tips for Teenagers By: Vernika, Dior, Cyrus, and Syed

Posted by Dior Seidle in ENGLISH 1 - Zeller - D on Wednesday, February 4, 2015 at 7:51 am

Based on the I-Search papers that we completed on teenage development, here are some tips for teenagers to help them be happier and to help them develop in positive ways.


  1. Don’t make decisions based on negative influences, especially when it’s something that you know is wrong. Make decisions for yourself and only you.

  2. Don’t allow your environment to determine your life choices. Even if people may stereotype you due to your environment, you’ll just have to prove them wrong.

  3. Don’t follow negative paths. Learn to lead yourself in a positive direction so that others will notice and want to follow in your footsteps.

  4. If you're having any problems expressing yourself, you should talk to a trusted adult or close friend. Trustworthy people can help you out a lot when you're carrying too much weight on your shoulders.

The Proper Dress Codes Infographic

Posted by Dior Seidle in TECH 1 - Hertz - e1 on Tuesday, January 20, 2015 at 8:13 am
I decided to choose an infographic of dress codes. The reason why I chose this is because not everyone knows the proper way to dress for each types of party. You don't want to make a completely fool of yourself if you wear jeans to a wedding.

Artist Statement

The reason why I had  a mirror light up is because I always love to look into the mirror. Every time I look into a mirror, it allows me a time to reflect on myself and the decisions I make for myself. This sculpture says about me that I always like to reflect on my actions and a mirror is my best ways of viewing those types of decisions that I think about during the day.

Now I used very little items for my sculpture so there isn’t a lot of elements, but there were a small circular mirror that can stand on it’s own, so it wouldn’t have to be held up, 16 christmas lights and different colors to some some christmas spirit, and a 9V battery to light the bulbs that there’s on the sculpture.

The reason why I picked this picture is because people believe that words doesn't affect anybody. Cyber-bullies can't understand the fact that these simply words can cause some major problems. It can destroy a person's mindset and affects them emotionally. Such things can get overlooked as if it was nothing. BUt in all honesty, words really can hurt you.
