if you were given $2,000,000 that had to be spent in one day on things that would disappear after that day, what would you spend it on?

I would probably gather up all 400 million of my relatives, and my friends, we'd head out to somewhere fun that none of us have been to.  we live how i think we deserve to live for that one day.  i would get them all their favorite foods, drinks, whatever they wanted for that day.  i care alot of my family and those friends i have.  it'd be epic to treat them for a day how i really could if i had the money.  hell we'd go to the moon!

eskimos are excellent hunters who have a great reverence for the world and animals around them, traditionally they have not hunted penguins.

why do you think this is?  what cultural, religious or other factors do you think would influence their decision?

#1 penguins are adorable.  just had to get that out there.

i am not sure of cultural or religious reasons, but i would think maybe because penguins are a passive creature, and most wouldn't be worth the hunt to feed many.  their skins might be useful but a seal would have the same aspect of the skins but with more benefits with the food and the blubber to use to heat things or whatever else you use blubber for.

today is the final day of class

reflect on the past 45 days of class.

what did you enjoy? what did you dislike?

what would you like to have learned?

what can you take away from this class?

I enjoyed pretty much the whole class.  when i first started illustrator, i didn't have any love for it, and after taking this class i have grown to love it.  I like the style of vector art, so this class has taught me how to create it.  there isn't anything off the top of my head that i can think of that i disliked, other than the afore mentioned that i didn't like illustrator to begin with.  i just wish i could have spent more time with it, because i'm really enjoying working with illustrator.

i make you weak at the worst of all times

i keep you safe, i keep you fine

i make your hands sweat and your heart grow cold.

i visit the weak, but seldom the bold.

i afflict men and women, both young and old

i will command your attention, but seldom deserve it.

what am i?

i thought fear but it doesn't keep you fine?  or does it?

be you ever so quick, with vision so keen,

by your eyes, we are never seen.

on a recent tv show, a woman admitted that she had cheated on her husband and would leave him if her ex boyfriend would have her, she had lied on her resume and she was once arrested for stealing from her employer, and yet she still considered herself a good person?

what is your definition of "good"? in a paragraph or two explain what constitutes a bad person is does or does not do.

to me a bad person is one who is a compulsive liar, only does things that will benefit themselves, very two faced.   bad people aren't patient, considerate or generally nice.  they think of the worst first and expect all the bad things in the world to happen to them.  generally, bad people are just people i do not care to be around and avoid at all costs.  in the paragraph above, there could have been reasons why the woman did what she did and would consider herself a good person still.  her husband could have been abusive, she might have lied about how long she worked at a job or why she quit because she was embaressed, and maybe the stealing was accidental.  who knows.
