Event #2






When talking to fellow LBCC Jake Urman he had this to say about the club 
"Durin my 8th-grade year we had a poetry unit and I had a lot of stuff I was going through so I used it as a journal and a way to express things. After that, something happened my freshman year and my poems matured a lot after that and ever since that I have been using it as an outlet, This is my 3rd term at LB and I have been a part of the club since school started. My favorite part is hearing everybody's poems and their styles, also how they interpret my poems. The hardest part of writing a poem is finishing and knowing when to end the poem so it doesn't go on forever because that is definitely a thing that can happen. For those who are starting out, I recommend starting with something with a set structure like a Haiku or a Limerick, something that is super set and when they are comfortable with that then moving on it free verse."

Week 10

My favorite shot from this term is the mug shot during the Portrait/mug shoot.  I think this was my best work because of the expression on his face. I used what I learned about talking to people while shooting to get them to lighten up and lower their guard. I used it in this photo, at first he really wasn't smiling that much but after a conversation, he was laughing and smiling. My approach to taking photos changed a lot before I just kind of took them without thinking of lighting and my position in the area. Now before I shoot I check the lighting and see how that affects the shot and what angle I am getting. Three goals I have in mind are learning to take better photos, earning an A, and learning to interview people easily. Those were my three goals and to be honest I achieved 2 out of the three. I did learn to interview and talk to people easier and my skill with a camera improved overall as well. This is apparent if you look at the lighting, angles, and expressions o...

It's what I do

When thinking about what part of this book that stood the most, it is hard to choose. From normal experiences to harrowing tales many parts of her story stand out to me. However one does stand above the rest, Chapter 11 was one of the most harrowing things I have ever read. For the first time, I actually had anxiety when reading about what this group of journalists went through. To review the chapter it starts with them being detained at a military checkpoint by the Lybians. They are bound and blindfolded and put into a car while shells hit the area around them, after surviving that they are put into a troop transport to be moved. It was here that a male soldier started to grope Addario until another male soldier pulled her away. They were beaten multiple times on their way to Tripoli until finally they arrived and the Foreign Ministry then took them. It was a tossup between the Interior Ministry, who is infamous for torture or the Foreign ministry for who gets them. The Foreign minis...
