ATTRIBUTES
Arts
I am very talented in the sense that I have skills in Visual Arts, Film and Animation, Music Composition, Photography, and Dance.
I play (Viola, Violin, Piano, Drums, Shamisen, Guitar, Saxophone, and Harmonica). I never was thought how to play any of the instruments. It was just an automatic learning curve I had gained on them. When I hear the music I see the sound.
With Art (Visual) it's a bit more of a intuitive type of motive. I feel the image before its drawn. I see the image, then I compose it, with an idea. The colors seem to pick themselves from just the intuition of what colors compliment one another.
Green
I feel as though you can always find a use for something that you own, and have used up.
To be Green, I ride my bike to places, have recycled hand bags when buying groceries, pick up aluminum cans that have been discarded around the metropolitan areas in the city. I also participate in my schools GoGreen Club by picking up recyclable objects around the school.
Community Service
I feel as though you can never truly know who you are, until you are helping someone else who ins in need.
I follow this philosophy by helping anyone who may be in need. Whether it be someone who has passed out in the middle of the sidewalk, to helping young adolescent children at the community center Community Action Partnership.
