Week 3 EOC- Great Customer Service

I had a hard time thinking of a time when I had great customer service. Nothing came off the top of my head, but I do know I have had some. Then it came to me, it just hit me. One day my mom took my sister and I to the mall so that I could get a sweater or something because it was getting cold out. We happened to go into Forever 21. I saw all these necklaces that I “just had to have.” My mom felt that she was going to spoil me that day cause she got me just about every necklace I wanted, and there were a lot. So moving on we walked up to the checkout line and my stupid self, just dropped all of the necklaces onto the counter. They got all tangled together into a giant ball of fake silver and gold paint. Yeah that’s right they weren’t the expensive stuff. It took forever to get them untangled but the checkout guy who was helping us untangle them didn’t seem upset at all. In fact we were all laughing at what I did, trying to untangle them without ripping them in half before I got to pay for them. I think I was expecting for him to be annoyed or to tell us that we need to go somewhere else to untangle them because we were holding up the line. Instead he was joking around with us and laughing. I don’t think most people would have done that and I really appreciated it. I think he was just a nice person and wanted to get a nice laugh in before his work day got boring and busy again. I remember this day because the day was just fantastic and it’s nice to make someone laugh to cheer them up when they are feeling low or bored, even for a couple of minutes.

EOC Week 2- My Demograph

I am a Gen Yer. Born in 1990 and I agree with what they say about Gen Yers. I believe I fit in, if not all the categories, I fit in most. It says that researchers have found Gen Yers to be impatient. If I want something I want it to be available to me right away or within the month, especially since my interests are almost always changing. I want it while I still have an interest in it. I believe I am very family-oriented, I love spending time with family and I really liked my childhood, wishing sometimes that I could go back to my time in elementary school. It was one of the best times of my life, at least that’s what I think. I may be a little iffy on the inquisitive part, of course people are curious but as long as it works I really don’t care how. I believe I am opinionated, I like people to know how I feel about something and I like to share my ideas sometimes. If I am able to give an opinion I probably will give it. Being diverse may be something that I am. I can strike up a conversation or friendship with anyone if I want to. I really don’t care what people look like or who their family is. I like to have a somewhat plan of what I am going to do so I may be a good time manager, but I am a really bad procrastinator. Street smart? Hmm maybe, I’m not really sure about that one. I have a myspace and facebook, so I would say yes to being connected. Well that’s it, researchers have really hit things right on the money, for the most part anyway.

EOC Week 2- Favorite Fast Food

When I was child my favorite fast food restaurant was McDonald's. I didn’t usually get fast food but when I did it was McDonald's. I always got a cheeseburger kids meal. The toy was always my favorite part for two reasons; the first because we got a new toy every time we went out to get food, but also the mystery of never knowing what we would get in our kids meal. There was also the part of disappointment when you didn’t get the toy you had been hoping for. I was still happy of course, I mean I did get a toy.

Week 1 EOC

To me photography is not just pictures or images. They should make you think about the world, allow you to feel what the subject is feeling, put you in that place and time and hope to understand.
My subjects never see it coming. My candid shots are funny, happy, sad, depressing and may even make you angry. I just hope that you find them as fascinating as I do.
My junior year of high school photography jumped into my life. I knew photography was for me when I picked up that camera and went out to find something amazing to photograph. I always found myself trying to get pictures of my friends and family while they weren’t paying attention and were just being themselves.
So now I find myself drawn to street photography. People walking down the street have no idea what I am taking a picture of, they have no idea that they are the subject of my photos. They might not know that they make the funniest faces while they talk, but I capture it.
