I chose three important aspects of my life: tennis, my dog, and traveling. Tennis started as a family sport but I’ve played for around ten years so I really enjoy playing for fun. I have a German Shepherd back at home named Koda who’s five years old and I love traveling and seeing the wold. Tennis picture: here Travel picture: here Dog picture: here

https://openclipart.org/detail/342829/sierra-leone-map I choose this as my badge because my family is West African, specifically from Sierra Leone. A huge part of why am I the way I am today and where I am is because of the support of my family.

My avatar is a collage that brings together the people and things that define me.. I have included pictures of some of the people I am really close to, including my family and friends. these are my comfort people. I have also included two symbols of a personal journey; Diet Coke and a gym picture. I grew up obese but started working out last year and have since lost around 20 pounds. this could not be possible without the gym , and surprisingly , diet sodas. all images in this picture are my own .I have used pixlr to edit the avatar

I chose this image as my avatar because it represents the best day I have ever had. In this picture, you can see the beautiful Amalfi Coast in Italy and a plate of vodka pasta, which was the meal I had in a small town along the coast. For Christmas in 2023, my family and I went to Italy for ten days. On the third day, we took a day trip to the Amalfi Coast, which is where my family originally comes from. We spent the entire day traveling between small towns and had the opportunity to interact with some of the locals. Our last stop was a little mom-and-pop restaurant that looked like someone’s home. We were immediately greeted by the owner and main chef—a welcoming grandmother. She offered us many different dishes to try, free of charge. One of these dishes was her famous vodka pasta, which I can still say is the best meal I have ever had. This assignment has made me reflect on amazing day with my family, where I learned more about where we came from and the life our ancestors may have lived. One difficulty I had while making this avatar was using basic editing apps and developing some photo editing skills. I had never used anything like this before, so I had to problem-solve and learn how to access photos and use editing tools. However, this assignment has definitely helped me develop a basic understanding of photo editing, which I hope will be useful both in this class and in my everyday life.

My name is Oliver Lu. I was born in Vancouver but raised in southern China. I have chosen the cover art of Radiohead’s In Rainbows as the background of my profile photo because music has been the center of my life—both as art and as a sign of my personality. In that album, much of the album reveals the beauty of anarchy: despite the frenzied, sometimes chaotic, arrangements, there is a persistent undertow of hope that lead vocalist Thom Yorke brings to the table. The remainder of my photos show who I am and what I love. A photo on the beach shows how much I love photography; I believe photography lets me capture moments of fleetingness of the world’s natural beauty. I’ve also put a photo of Shibuya Sky from the top of a trip to Japan. Travel always lifts me up when I am down or numb because it lets me see the world in a whole view again.

'In Rainbows' no text cover art upscaled to a ridiculous 6000×6000 for fellow cytotechnologists.

I chose these three images because they all represent key components of my life. The background image is a photo of me swimming at a state championship swim meet. It demonstrates my passion for swim and the significant role it plays in my everyday life. The photo of my dogs highlights my love for animals and my family. Lastly, the photo of me and my friends represents how important my friends are to me and how I cherish them. The images included in my avatar are all taken by me or friends,

When it came to creating this avatar I wanted to incorporate details about myself both personally and academically. Focusing on the personal aspect in my avatar, I decided to pull two images from my camera that focused on my nationality and home life. When looking at the background of my avatar a semi transparent image can be seen of colorful handmade toys. I chose this image specifically because it was taken at a small costal town in Guatemala. Through this image I am able to highlight my Guatemalan background and culture. Looking towards the center of the avatar my brother can be seen sitting and smiling. My brother and overall family play a big role in who and how I am, which I why I chose this specific picture of one of our family outings. Moving on to the academic details in the image, I chose to add a background of medical tools because my passion for working in the medical field. When making this avatar i ran in to very few issues. I used my computers built in editing app that has clear instructions for the editing tools. The images used to create this avatar were all gathered from my camera roll.

I chose three pictures that I took personally to incorporate into my collage. As a child of an immigrant family, I was raised in China, grew up in Hungary, and matured in the US. The left most picture depicts a sunrise in my hometown of SuZhou, the Venice of China. Known for our silk and rivers, the picture was taken near my childhood home, on a bridge, and on a “silk” street: perfectly encompassing my Chinese heritage. In the middle, the picture shows a sunny afternoon in front of the parliament building of Budapest, the center of where I spent another 7 years of my life at. Despite the beautiful architecture scattered across the country, the largest exporter of foie gras, and rich culture originating from the steppes of Euroasia, the country remains under appreciated. Finally, the right most picture is of a sunset with my baby sister, Sierra, as the main character. Moving with me to the New Jersey, my parents gave birth to Sierra during my sophmore year of high school in the states. Despite our age gap, she has taught my many lessons about life and family, something I will miss during these four years. Overall, the three pictures come together to represent my formal years and the respective time I have spent living in those places during the day.
