Final Thoughts On "The Desk"

        I decided for my project to not go too extreme with the look and keep it "realistic", which in itself I think is a way to describe me. I'm usually never too optimistic or pessimistic about things, and like to think of myself as realistic. I think the wood background sets that feeling right away, without even having to look at the objects. Secondly, the objects are arranged like they would be on my desk, the reason for the wood background, and the location I'm at for most of my day at OSU.The objects are also mostly in proportion to their real-life size, again coming back to the "realistic" side of me, which is how I view myself.

       My phone is my guide, as I described in the first post of this project, it helps me stay connected, and learn information, so it is right next to my hand to the left of my computer. Always there, and always ready, like I have to be. The calculator is there because I often use it for math and physics, and shows the Engineer side of me and how I like real, number, answers. Because I must be ready to react to changes (or in this case, go to class) I have my backpack nearby, ready to collect all my stuff and head out. 

      My BuckID is my identity and without it I'd be lost. I overlapped it with my glasses for a cool effect, to show I sometimes wear them, and to show that these to objects are the only things I cannot go any day without. The pen and pencil are crossed because I believe they are interchangeable, and can both be useful, showing I'm able to adapt. My computer shows the most, with it being the same project opened indefinitely, it shows that most of my life is on the computer, and how the computer can be used forever in anything, basically how my life is run by computers and their usage.

    The only object I decided not to describe was my flash drive, because in retrospect, I can't think of a really good reason for it to describe me. I did include it in the picture though, just to keep the realism, so that it's like my real desk. I think the objects chosen describe me better than I can, I just feel like they all contribute to my life, and use them as tools to do everything I need. They all are needed, and all fit in somewhere, and can help others, which I enjoy doing.
