Artifact

I went through many different processes on the future artifact. One of the processes was that I had to make the tattoo look real on Justin Biebers body. It wasn't as hard as I imagined it, all you had to do was make the tattoo go from normal to multiply. Another process I went through was that I had to make the machine, I took a vending machine from the internet and modified it so it would look like a "Tattoo Machine". What I didn't like about the tutorial was that it made it sound so complicated when it was so easy. What I liked was that it was easy and very simple, it took me less than 20 minutes to complete. I don't think I would change my artifact if I could, maybe I would just erase parts of the tattoos to make it look even more real. All in all, I went through different stages to complete this amazing artifact.

Erika's project was very interesting, I thought she did a very good job. What I liked about her project was that it was very realistic, someone could actually use this in the future. Also, I liked the way she changed the appereance of the person in a way that it still was the same but it specific details were modified, it made it look professional. A photoshop skill I see in her artifact is the one she used to change the eye color. I would like to learn this because maybe later on someones eyes are red in a picture and I would want to change it to their natural color. Not only that but, it was be cool to change peoples eye color in a picture so they look better. She also used a tool to change the background to make it look more antique, I would like to learn that too. As you can see, Erika's project is completely real and fascinating.

If this artifact would be out for people to use I would totally like it. To start with, I would use it every once in a while to change my appearance to look better and to feel prettier. Personally, I think this artifact might be out in the future since there has been different machines and tools invented for people to use to look more glamourous or different. Plus, as time goes by, people are buying more and more products for their face and skin so it would be popular buy. I would be the favorite costumer, I would buy this artifact and if it get's wrecked I would buy a new one over and over again. I would even buy extra just in case. This artifact would change everybody's life since people would be looking so much better and more alive all the time. As you can see, I would like this artifact same as everybody else.

Artifact From the Future

I want to create an artifact that would be used by people all over the world. This artifact would be a machine that can make tattoos for $100 each tattoo, usually it takes 45 minutes per tattoo, and it is completely safe, the needle is cleaned up after every single tattoo is made. People would go into something like a clinique where this weird looking vending machine will be standing waiting for you. After you put in your money like if it were a "vending machine", a door would automatically open leading you inside the machine. While inside, you have many different options of tattoos, after you choose one you press the button beside it and then you choose where you want it and press the button beside it. The moment you press the button start, the tattoo will start forming wherever you want it. The good and incredible fact of this invention is that you can get as many tattoos as you want without undergoing pain. When you are done, a door at your left will open leading you out of the machine. This artifact would be used by everyone since it isn't too expensive and there are millions of people out there dieing for a tattoo but are scared of getting hurt.

Family Gathering

About two years ago, my dads whole family gathered together for Christmas. It was the first time we had all spent Christmas together in France and it was very nice to see everyone assembled in such an important celebration for the first time. My grandma, her sister, and my dad were in the kitchen the entire day cooking delicious foods for us. We were all sitting on this very long table enjoying ourselves as a family. This was such a memorable Christmas because it was my great-grandmother's last one and it felt good to be with most of my dad's family members. My great-grandmother was delighted by everything, the food, the tree, the gifts, the people, and just by looking at her I could feel the same way. Besides that, I hadn't seen some of my cousins for a really long time and I was pleased to see them. My grandma and my grandpa had gotten great gifts just like everyone else and it was all pure joy and happiness. I hope someday this gathering will happen again, I had never seen my dad's side of the family this happy in a very long time. All in all, this Christimas was the best so far.

Family Tree

This assignment was harder than I thought it would be, many things were challenging for me. One of them was simply how to use Photoshop. I had used photoshop once in sixth grade and I had completely forgot how to use it. For this assignment I would constantly mess up and had to re-do everything again, Photoshop is just not my thing, I have no patience for it. Secondly, arranging the pictures with their frames and their names was really complicated for me. There was just so much to do and you had to constantly be changing the sizes of everything so it would fit into the tree. Another thing that was hard, was having all the pictures be the same size. I had to estimate the sizes by their looks and tried fixing them up. Something I would change about my final project would be to have more pictures. There is still a lot more to my family and I wish I could've filled it up. As you can see, this assignment wasn't too easy for me.

Family Tree

This is my Family Tree base. I chose this tree because I love the sunset, I admire it so much and think its one of the most gorgeous thing in our world. In addition, I like anything that has to do with water, like a river, a lake, the ocean, the pool, or just even natural water that we drink, it is very pretty and entertaining. Besides that, I like hills or a scene like in the picture, I think it is very relaxing and peaceful to be in a place just like that. Also, I have families from different continents and I didn't find a specific tree that would relate to all of us so I found this one and thought that it was right in the middle, it is beautiful. As you can see, sunsets such as the one in the picture mean a lot to me.

J O Y

This summer was one of the best summers of my life. At the beginning of June my parents and I went to LA for a week to see some of their friends and to do a little shopping. When we got back, like two weeks later, my cousins and my uncle from France came to visit us. They stayed here for two weeks, we went to the beach, swam with the dolphins, and visited. After the two weeks, we went to France with them to visit my grandma and my grandpa that have a beautiful house down in Marseille, south of France. My cousins and I were getting ready to go to a sports camp in Vichy. We were all so excited, the camp had class in the mornings and sports in the afternoon and I had a feeling it was going to be great and ,of course, I was not wrong. We met such amazing people over at the camp, the activities were incredibly fun, and everything was just perfect. We stayed there two weeks and I honestly still think it was not enough. After the camp, we stayed one more week in France so I could spend some time with my grandparents and visit with them for a bit. Later on that week, I was back home as fast as I knew it. This summer was just super! There is no words to describe it and it was not enough.

One thing I would like to do for myself, even though we just came back from summer and a whole two months of pure relaxing, is rest. It's only been three days of school counting today and I am awfully tired, my eyes are almost closing in every class and we wake up way too early. Plus, it's only been three days of school and we have had loads of homework and its just the beginning. Not only that, but those boxes we have and these new rules from school are really scarying me out, now I MUST finish my homework completely and obey every single rule. Not only that but, in the day I have different sorts of sport activities and I finish around eight so I'm already very tired before I even start my homework. In addition, the weekends are not enough, two days to sleep late is nothing, we should go on weeks sleeping late.These are the reasons I need to rest, I am so tired, I just wish I could go a whole day sleeping.

A part of me that makes me very special is my heart. My heart is the simplest pumping thing you will ever meet. It is huge and fits many different people that are important to me in there. Also, it is very sweet and outgoing, it talks to everyone, smiles at people it doesn't even know,
its always nice no matter what, and its always there for you in any situation. My heart is open to everybody that deserves the chance to be opened to or if that person deserves it, you hurt it once you won't ever get to talk to it again, you are good it will treat you the same way. It is patient, some people have a hard time to really get to know this thing but after some time they realize there's only good in it. It will never hurt you, the last thing it would do is that, it only wants to spread out that good vibe. My heart makes me a very special person and it always has, if it weren't for that I'd be nothing.
