The Metamorphosis of Narcissus: Salvador Dali

Well, in Greek mythology it says that, Narcissus 

fell in love with his own reflection in a pool. 

Unable  to embrace the watery image, he pined 

away, and the gods immortalized him as a 

flower.  They mean he thought too highly of 

himself so they make him grow and wait as a 

flower.  The feeling or mood would be too 

grow, to not beself-absorbed to view life. Dali's

 paintings are very intresting surrealism let's 

people express views in a way where you show 

both opinion and artwork. He does very good 

pieces of artwork.

Student Success Statement: Robert E. Lee

Student Success Statement:

“You have only always to do what’s right. It will become easier by practice, and you enjoy the midst of your trials the pleasure of an approving conscience.”

Robert E. Lee

Reflection: What Mr. Lee is trying to say is once you do what’s right, you will try more and more to do what’s right. As time progresses it will seem natural giving you the satisfaction of you well doing, a good conscience. Once you believe what you’re doing is right, and feels right, you will be happy. You can live in harmony with what you’re doing and how good you feel about yourself.

After some serious soul-searching, Kennedy decided she was made for a purpose: to be successful and to fulfill who she was destined to be. She returned to DCCC “with determination and a mindset that I would not fail with God leading me.”

She says her first semester back was difficult. “I knew I could find refuge in the Student Success Program,” Kennedy said. “To my benefit, Ms. Gravely accepted me back. Because of my struggles and hard times, I seek a new beginning every day and don’t allow the past to cripple my future. I have learned to have self-value”

I see elephants in the water, well it is a surrealist painter, so it is an unrealistic view on the elephants.
The feeling in the painting\mood would be a comedic view, it is quiet relaxing but with an eerie feeling.

As Kennedy lay crumpled in her hospital bed following the accident, she realized that many of her wounds were invisible. “After the car accident, I suffered from low self-esteem and depression,” she said. “For years, I allowed someone I loved to physically, mentally and emotionally abuse me.”

She had previously tried taking a few DCCC classes, but said she was immature and not ready for academic challenge. She dropped out. After the accident, she returned to DCCC to take cosmetology classes. She left school a second time and began working as a certified nursing assistant. After yet another car accident, she felt unstable, hopeless, and didn’t know what to do.

What I see is a skull, and a girl standing in some type of forest.
The mood is dark, like an eerie feeling comes with this painting.

As Quansheeba Kennedy reviews her DCCC transcript in preparation to transfer to Salem College, she can hardly believe she has a 3.3 grade point average and that she was accepted into the prestigious private college with a selective policy.

It took two false starts before the 22-year-old Thomasville resident found her true calling, elementary education, and more importantly, before she found and reaffirmed the value of herself. She thought back to when she was only 18 years old but felt “overwhelmed by life.” She had just graduated from high school when she was in a serious car accident.

“I almost killed myself, not by drinking and driving, not by partying, but because I was living a life that was overwhelming,” she said. One must work hard, but not waste time. Goofing off during school is a killer. It kills your achievement and your chances for outstanding success now and later.
