Auld Lang Syne


I have spent time recently “clouding” a goodly portion of my computer files. Doing so I was reminded of an interesting item.

A class requirement from a few years ago charged each student with producing a "Self Portrait". Its requirement could really be identified as a "life snapshot" as opposed to a true self portrait, but I couldn't argue. It actually became an opportunity to become broadly reminiscent.

As a “non-traditional” student I stood as one of the “more seasoned” members of the group. Laying the events of my “Self Portrait” against the median age of the class I became profoundly aware that the events expressed in my project were only history in the eyes of my classmates. It was one of the more sobering moments of my life.

I thought I’d post this project for today’s blog.
