Dorien is also known for wearing variety of hats, therefore we thought it was a good idea to put our personal likings in our project.

Creativity while learning is a way for me to memorize what I have learned. Being creative is one of my strong nesses. When I am creative, ideas start to flow through my head and I love to make my ideas happen. I tend to learn and adapt to a learning environment by being creative, sharing ideas, and making ideas come to life. If my learning environment was not creative and filled with great ideas, I would not adapt to my learning environment as well as I would if the learning environment was creative. I think that being creative is apart of adjusting to high school. High school is mostly revolve around projects that require a student to be creative with work. Most teachers would not accept projects if they do not show creativity. Creativity is a great way to live life. Most people say that they “are not creative,” but the truth is that they actually are. People are creative when they choose their outfits, when they plan parties, etc. Creativity is something that comes naturally.

In January, the NFL's Seattle Seahawks beat the Green Bay Packers to earn a trip to their second consecutive Super Bowl. The day after that win happened to be Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, so inexplicably the Seahawks decided to compare their struggle for a championship to the struggle for equal rights that African-Americans have gone through. View image on Twitter. The example of immediacy in this situation is how fast the Seattle Seahawks decided to compare them losing a game to the struggle of how blacks didn’t have equal rights. I feel as if that it was very immature, unnecessary, and disrespectful to compare the struggle of equal rights to a game. The example of permanency is that the decision that the team decided to make to compare their lost of a game to a major problem, will always be known; it will be left as a disgrace, embarrassing to all blacks, and disrespectful. This is an example of lack of control because when the team sent this out, it was reposted multiple times; even after deleted. This article shows that you shouldn’t compare simple things, like a lost game, to a major problem, like the struggle of blacks’ equal rights.
