Dia de los muertos

My Grandma
The person that passed was my beloved grandma Haja Baindu. She was born December 5, 1942 and passed away June 15, 2003. She meant the world to me. She took care of me from a very young age until I she died. She was a very moderate , friendly, multicultural , and really easy going woman .Her heart was big enough to fill a room . At a young age I recognized her as my 2nd mother and treated her as so . Even though her heart was big and was a caring person , she wasn’t to tolerate nonsense . She disciplined me and my other two cousins all the time . We gave her a huge headache . She didn’t really have a job , but she loved taking care of kids as if it were her passion . Some would say she was a personal babysitter . We shared a lot of things such as our favorite color and food .Not only was she like a mother to me , but she was an important pillar in the family . It was a grim day for non-family and family.
I chose to do the sugar skull on my grandma hadja because she is the one of the few people I was affected by when she died . When she died I was four and I remained calmed until they brought out the casket . Some would say I was in a state of shock . I convinced my brother to tell them to open the casket . Once I saw her body I began shouting , kicking and screaming for her . I even reached in to feel her cold , now lifeless hand . I gazed at her 5’3 , big boned body with dreary eyes . She was 80 when she died . They buried her body in her home town of sierra leone . After she died I didn’t look at death the same or take it serious . I lost lots of people in my life , but never would I cry . That was the last day I cried over anyone . When Ms.Moran brought up this project , she was the first person I thought of for this project . I decided I wanted to show my love and appreciation for her through this creative project .Dia de los muertos is a happy time after all.
My Sugar skull reflects my grandmother by incorporating things about her . I had made the rings around her eyes blue because that was her favorite color (mine too). That wasn’t the only purpose for the blue . It also represented one of the three sierra leonean colors ( blue, white , and green), which are all included . The colors on the flag mean green symbolizes agriculture , mountains , and natural resources , white represents unity and justice , and blue the sea and the natural harbor in Freetown . I added them because she was a little patriotic . I added the google eyes to show off her beautiful eyes . I added the brown to show her skin and how down to earth she was . Even Though she was down to earth and well rounded , she was able to dazzle up . She loved to dress me up all the time even if I wasn’t gonna go anywhere . I also added yellow to represent the color of the oil of our favorite african dish , potato leaf.
On the skull , I tried to paint a brown hijab to represent that she was a muslim and I painted a crescent and star to represent that she made haj . Haj is the pilgrimage to the kabba .
Día de los Muertos has opened my mind to the celebration of my loved ones , by showing me that there are greater things to do when a loved one passes then my own traditions .

Professional Interview
For this project our objective was to host a college interview between a college professor and a potential student. In the video I was the professor and my partner, Asmar Beyah was interested in attending our chosen school, which was Drexel University. We both asked each other questions that in some way referred back to neighborhood, likes/dislikes, family, food, clothing, etc.
Dia de los Muertos
This project was in a way to help us embrace our bonds with our passed loved ones. As we went over this project I know that for myself it brought back many happy and joyful memories of me with my loved ones. This opened my eyes to see that there was more to my grandfather to just mourn over, that there was more celebratory memories also. Helped me to understand the true meaning of a bond.

To be specific, concepts included physical descriptions, personality, likes and dislikes of the interviewee, school life, family, shopping, and clothes. All of these concepts were taught to us and we did this project to understand the concepts in depth.
