ATA 5: Five Acts Of Kindness

For this assignment we had to write about five acts of kindness. Over the two weeks that we had to complete the assignment, I was able to really reflect and analyze how I made people feel, things that they’ve shared, how I felt and the overall aspect of doing good deeds in general. In today’s society, not many people do good deeds and now a days not many individuals are well mannered or will do for others as others have done for them. This assignment really shows that just a simple gesture of helping someone with their groceries, taking out an elders trash, cleaning up the house,any of these things will make someone’s day because just that little bit of kindness goes a long way.

ATA 4: Love Test

For this assignment we learned about the seven different love styles,Eros, Ludus, Storge,Pragma, Mania and Agape. We had to take the quiz and then compare our results to the normal range of results that was listed on the quiz. I was very high in the EROS , Storge,and Pagma. These were areas that I am very aware of and definitely agreed with scoring wise. I am a very passionate, free spirited,selfless lover, I enjoy the thought and aspect surrounding love and give off as much as I possibly can whether its relationship of even friendships . I never really taken any type of love quiz and talking to my boyfriend about this one he even said maybe his results would be different if he had taken it. I found this assignment to be one of my favorites thus far besides the ATA 2 , I thought it was interesting to see how I love and compare it to others and the different results from males as well.

ATA 3: Racist

For this assignment, we had to watch Michael Richard’s triade and elaborate on whether or not his rant was racist. Instantly as this video began playing and just listening to is tone and word choice, he is a racist and his intentional intent was most definitely to inflict pain on those in the audience. The audience was flabbergasted at the comments and racial slurs used towards two african american men in the audience. You learn that when people are angry to listen to carefully to their words because those exact words are who they are just as the saying goes for a person who is intoxicated. You don’t realize the many different aspects of this video, how those who felt uncomfortable , who did not agree with his actions immediately got up and began leaving whereas some began to laugh and still choose to stay in their seats yet somehow disagreeing but yet still didn’t leave their seats. This man intentionally chose his words, his reference back to fifty years ago, this is a man who doesn’t want to be perceived as racist but it racist.

ATA 2: SELF

For this assignment I chose these eight images to represent myself and who I am as a person . When I look back at these images , I reflect on the people in my life and the amazing opportunities that I have and have had. And the people who are around me and how grateful I am of them. In these images I see a daughter, sister, dog mom, best friend, girlfriend and a Godmother to two beautiful little humans. When I reflect on my life I realize how grateful I am to be apart of life itself especially during a time like this with all this COVID-19 pandemic. I’ve always cherished family but even more so now because this virus has turned everyone’ lives upside down one way or another. In my life there has been many disappointments and obstacles but doing this assignment and questionnaire made me reflect on my capabilities and how I handle and overcame them all.
