ASA4

From assignment four I learned more about the different categories of love. For this assignment, I decided to complete it twice. I did it once while thinking about my significant other and another time while thinking about my friends. I have utilized the assignment results and applied it to another psychology class. The psychology class curriculum talked about peoples love types and how their personalities go hand and hand. This assignment was also applied to my personal life when looking into the different types of love that are present.

ASA5

Assignment five required me to do nice things for five people and take note of how I felt during the interaction and their reaction as I did the good deed. From this task I learned that good deeds can make a difference in both parties’ days when someone goes out of their way to do something nice. You never know what someone is going through and performing an act like that could turn their day or make a longer lasting change than one expected. I have decided to apply this to my everyday life and try to do something nice for people even when my day isn’t going as well as I would like for it to. I was also able to apply this to another psychology course that was focusing on mental health. If someone is already depressed and mentally unstable a small act of kindness may have been what kept them from giving in to their mental illness.

ASA3

From this assignment I learned something about myself. As I watched this video I learned that racism and ignorance irritate me much more than I thought. This video filled me with rage as the comedian cracked racist jokes to the black people in the crowd. I learned that some people are simply raised to think a certain way or believe certain things.

ASA2

From this assignment I gained more insight on how other people may view me. Although this assignment was from my own point of view, I got the chance to take a step and analyze some pictures of myself and think about what other people see when they view these photos. I take this lesson in consideration in my filmmaking course because they pay a lot of attention to what is being represented on film or in photos. This assignment is personally relevant for my daily use of Instagram. Being that Instagram is an app  made for photographs so I now pay a lot more attention to the representation that the picture displays.
