What I like about poems

I like poems although they do get me frustrated. Sometimes they are hard to understand. If it's because the words that are used or trying to understand the point they are trying to get across. What I like about them is that they are enticing. They are like the genre of any movie, you have horror, drama, thriller, love story, or mystery. I like how some are deep too and, sometimes, long. Like a movie they make you think, hard, about everything from the beginning to end. Sometimes I get lost as if I'm in another world. I like how there are different poems and that you can do lots of things with them, for example there are some that are put in a shape. I also like that if one person were to read it, what they think the author was writing about, would be completely different from another person that were  to read it.

Happy graduation

Well it's close to the end of the school year for some. Some may get out early and for others they have to stay in school a little longer. This means graduation! Along with the celebration comes a party with presents, relatives over, good food, cake, and a fun time. I wouldn't mind to relive my graduation day. Although one thing I would like to change was the weather (it was cold and windy). This may not have anything to do with art but all life is art. I just want to say congrats on passing eight grade and transforming into a young adult and becoming mature with responsibilities. Congrats to the new graduates being the next generation for the new world. I hope that to all graduation is a wonderful experience for you and that you have the best time.

Me, Myself and I

One of my favorite songs/song lyrics is Me, Myself & I by G-EAZY featuring an artist by the name of Bebe Rexha. I like this song not only because of the beat but because the lyrics are in a way relatable and deep. The song basically talks about friends, money, fame, and them self. It goes into depth about how fame comes with a price and how life was before it came. It also goes into talking about how they are surrounded by fake people because all they want is the money and how they are coping with all of it. In the song they explain how life goes and how far they've come with the struggles within themselves. Within the song sends a strong message. I think that is important because in this era children, teens, and adults alike have lost their morals. Although some may have not it doesn't change the fact that every person in this day and age don't respect and appreciate value. This is some of the lyrics from the song, "It changes though now that I'm famous/Everyone knows how this lifestyle is dangerous/ I found how to cope with my anger/I'm swimming in money/ They all take the money for granted/But don't want to work for it tell me now, isn't it funny?/ Solo ride until I die/Cause I got me for life."

Ruins

I think it's interesting when even in the most destructed places you can find beauty. Like ruined places that have been teared down long ago but now have life growing all over. To me I think that it shows a powerful message. The message is that no matter what you are still beautiful or that nothing can stop you from achieving anything. Really anyone can think otherwise of the view (but I'm just giving my opinion). It may be nature's way of taking back what belongs to her, that was taken. But it also shows how much destruction we have done to our own 'home'. Before we came along it belonged to the natural inhabitants of the earth and was their home before it became ours. I would love to visit a place that once caused havoc had then created such a scenery of beauty. Not that I like that anyone died or that treacherous actions were taken to hurt people because of some disagreement but because it is a magnificent thing.

2016 Fashion

My question today is, do you think that less clothing is fashion? Back in the early 1900s were when the clothing for women was on the peak of getting (a bit) shorter. It was in the years of the 1930s when the skirts shortened to below the knee. In the 1960s clothing became shorter and looser. As years passed by the fashion of both men and women kept evolving. In some cases the evolution of fashion has either been greatly influenced by popularity and/or rebellion, etc. As some may say 'bigger is better' what some may say now is, 'less is better'. It wasn't until years later in the twenty-first century when the mindset of people has changed drastically. Now, these days, parents let their children leave the house wearing whatever they want and don't have a problem. Although there are some people who may have common sense fact is no one can change the fact that less clothing is socially acceptable.

Importance of plays

I may have been to a couple of plays but on school field trips. I think plays can sometimes be boring if it's not your 'cup of tea'. Honestly it was one of the first and only plays I had been to but I wouldn't mind to go to another one. The positive thing about plays is that they get you out of the house. Your brain can get some exercise by paying close attention, because you can't rewind it like a movie. Depending on what you go to see it keeps you entertained and takes you to another place and forget your worries. I think it is inspiring and make people to want to get involved. If you were to join and  make it a hobby (or something like it) that it could give you opportunities. For visual learners it can help them better understand things. Not to mention It can help people improve in reading and writing skills.

Big Eyes

Has anyone seen Big Eyes? I have and although the paintings are interesting it is quite extraordinary, the art. When I first had heard the name I thought it was going to be a weird and boring movie. Instead it made my mind more broad and think about the meaning of art. I was actually surprised the movie was based on a true story. The artist who made this happen, name is Margaret Keane. Margaret was married and had a child then divorced and remarried after relocating to San Francisco. After all the events that took place Walter Keane (her second husband) plagiarized and took credit for her work. In the end, for all the pain Walter had caused Margaret, she ended up having won justice. There is a quote by Margaret Keane and it is a favorite, it says, "Gradually it dawned on me that I was painting my own inner emotions. Those children were asking: 'Why are we here? What is life all about? Why is there sadness and injustice?' All those deep questions. Those children were sad because they didn't have the answers. They were searching." —Margaret Keane
