First Post?

Hmm, well.
Never really had a blog before, but there's always a first time for everything, right? I guess I'll roll with it~

Out of what I've gathered from the first day of class, I have to say it was definitely different than what I had expected. The entire course outlook has a different route - where I had thought that perhaps we were going to be talking about how to work with various art programs and learn the history of them. Don't get me wrong, I'm more than excited for what may come for the actual schedule of the class. I'm a huge history buff, and combined with my love and passion for the arts, I don't think I could've been settled into a more perfect course.

I find myself to be a more reserved and passive person who learns from observation and then applies these lessons when I am in need of them. I've a love for animals and their behaviors and perspectives, and always like to look at new opportunities and situations with a completely open and intellectual mindset. If I can get myself embedded into the fabric of a problem or a viewpoint, I feel I'm much more likely to figure out where to go from there. I hope that this class offers more perspectives for me to learn from, and enforce my belief that the best way to learn for the future is by studying the past.
