Collage

In class we we're asked to make a collage about our identity and what is important to us.
As I look back on my life and the things I have been through or the people I have met. I have realized that my family and friends are the things that are most important to me. My family and friends have guided me and helped me through rough times in my life. I used the theme of Wiggy's world. My family and friends are the stars in my life. I used black in my collage because I wanted to make it seem like the background is space and the pictures are my stars. I am pretty happy with my collage and how it came out.

High School's Secret Life by Emily White

Hey its Wiggy!
I agree but at the same time I disagree on the passage that I read from the book Remix : reading + composing culture. I don't know about other schools but in my highschool we didn't really have cliques. Like there was the jocks and the I guess you could say "nerds" but usually you we're part of more then one group or the same group. For example my valedictorian played volleyball but also had the highest gpa in the class and is now enrolled in Brown University! I feel like movies and other media made me think high school would be different or even cooler then it actually was. ( Mean Girls) I know when Emily White talks about cliques she is talking about her experience. But my view on cliques and her views are very different. Does anyone have the same view on cliques as I do ?
