Makeup Blog #15: The Group Project

Surprisingly enough, I didn't hate the group project. I think it was relatively easy and pretty interesting actually. My part in the project was the reasearch on the significant people and their works as well as the make it memorable aspect. Reading about all the poets, knowing their stories and what made them write the way they did was rather inspirational. I also kind of like poetry I realized. I mean, I hate writing it and let's be honest some of it is crazy weird and therefore I'm not a fan, but a majority of it is really good. Some of it just kinda hits you when it's deep. The make it memorable part of the project was cool in my opinion. I was at Lauren Delventhal's house when I was trying to learn how to do the cup part of my song. Let's just say videos on youtube are almost impossible at following because they go to fast and they aren't going your speed because obviously they aren't with you. I had to have a friend of mine teach me. After I got that down, I had to practice singing the song with the tempo of the cup which no matter how many times I practiced was almost impossible. I can barely do one thing at a time let alone do two things at once like that. I was actually really nervous about doing it in front of the class because I never thought I could do it all that well and I could never memorize the freaking poem no matter how many times I sang it. It was rather frustrating. But, in the end it was okay and I think our make it memorable was pretty dang memorable! (But, hey, that's just me!)
