I believe that the collage I created reflects my identity in many ways. Living off-campus and walking to class during the winter season has been much more challenging that I first imagined. The name of the game is warmth and many days, the weather beats me when it comes to losing feeling in my fingers and ears. After a while, I became acclimated to the native climate of Columbus and now know what to expect on a daily basis. All of the objects found in the collage are everyday objects that became very important to me in my journey to class. While the hat and gloves kept me warm, the altoids are a great way to wake up a little bit in the morning and keep the focus off how cold it is around me. Finally, the keys reflect my desire to return to my warm house and curl up in a blanket. I've become a bit of a weather warrior these past couple months and it has shown me to be a driven person on those chilly mornings. One thing it doesn't tell you about me is my desire to meet new people and interact socially. While I come off a bit secluded and focused in my mission to get to class on time, I really do enjoy interacting with friends and classmates. As soon as I am inside and warmed up, I don't hesitate to spark up a conversation with someone. Overall, I really like my final product and believe it reflects my winter term at Ohio State.
