Have you ever felt alone? Outcasted? the fucking freak who has no friends? Well that was me in high school. I never had this feeling of fitting in. I had friends and was very social, but a part of me always felt like it was on the outside looking in. This is where my visual rhetoric project will start, but not finish. I want to state exactly how I felt no one else , not some random person, but me (or a fake me while I take the pictures). The stages I went through of isolation and evolving into who I am today, or who I want to become. Today I received a tweet from Lady Gaga saying that another gay teen took his life due to bullying and I asked myself was he outcasted? Maybe my project isn't about being isolated or outcasted, maybe its about bullying. I don't really fucking know where I want this to go and I don't even know if it has a finishing point, but I know it has a beginning. This thought came to me while Bronte Price was kicking, smashing, and cussing at my door because I locked her out. Why? I wanted to be alone, and she felt alone and that moment in time. Maybe it really started when I told her my first idea and it was questioned and I didn't have answers, or maybe it was because she blew me off one to many times! All I know is that i now have an idea and I know where I'm headed. I think I'm gonna be using Logos at least in my VR project, and maybe a little bit of Pathos. How you might ask. Well Courtney that I don't really know either. I think I have put my self where I am in a hole and I have more questions rather than answers. You know what to me that is okay, but to you probably not so much. This project is no longer and the outcome or the grade you give me (well it is because I can't fail), but the process and the digging I'm gonna have to do to uncover how I felt, what I went through, and the things I did. I'll have to uncover the point where it all began, and honestly I don't know where that is either. This is the start and lets see if I can find the finish.
P.S. The title? Yea i don't know where that came from... I just typed something
