Blog IV- Hewitt
To be honest, my ideas for the Snapshot assignment came from some of the most confusing moments in my life, which also happens to be the first times of certain events. The first draft of this assignment is nothing like the ones that come after, because the first was just so general and had no focus on a certain idea, feeling, or moment. I got inspiration for the second one after meeting with Mrs. Marshall for the conferences, where I found a decent path on which I should be on. The "First Time" theme is applicable to all the snapshots. I thought, still do, that this idea is something I can describe as vivid as possible, as seen with "Love" (first time, and last, I had to leave a relationship not due to differences, but just how life is) and "Kids/Leaves" (I'm still debating on what the title of this one should be, but it's the first time seeing the consequences of a car crash and how for the first time that I noticed life is over in an instant). I was considering my first memory as one of the snaps, but that wasn't too interesting... it was just boring, to be honest. I wanted to use ideas that were interesting for me, as well as others, and those so happen to be the moments that aren't terribly happy. I am now wondering if I should change out two of the snaps to match the emotional levels of the others, but I am overall content with what I've written.

I have to agree on the differences between the first draft and now. I also started off very vaguely and after my meeting I was able to expand on each snap. If each of your snapshots describe a part of your life in detail I wouldn't change a thing. The paper is not supposed to be uniform so it's ok if each snapshot is not full of the same emotion.
