Self Portrait
My next assignment for my Time Studio class was to make a video self-portrait. It could be a literal self-portrait or a description of some part of your life, interests, etc. I decided to show one part of my life that not everyone knows about...I am an insomniac! Whee! No, not whee. Since I can remember I have had trouble falling asleep. In high school it usually took me about an hour or two to fall asleep. Now in college, it can take up to 5 or 6 hours and sometimes I never fall asleep at all. Thankfully I have discovered the magic of Melatonin (supplement of the naturally occurring chemical in your brain that promotes rest and relaxation). But without that little pill before bed, sleeping can be one of the most stressful parts of my day, very unfortunately. I tried to convey the feeling of insomnia in my video.
