I'm Jenna and this Tumblr is for a project about transcending and experiencing new things in order to find myself as an individual. Here's my journey.

After… 

It wasen’t as bad as everyone made it seem. I mean of course I still wish I had different moves, I mean I got in the circle and shook my butt, whats wrong with me?! But, for the people that didn’t even participate, they are missing out. They need to open up and get alitle sily. Who cares if you look stupid! I’m not in class to be judged. Everything in class is a leason learned, even if we don’t like it. I’m sick of everyone judging because I actually speak my mind and they keep quiet. Everyone knows what I’m like, and I’d like to know everyone else too. I’m a very open person, theres no shame in my game. But the people who didn’t participate… lighten up becuase you’re not better than any of us.. we’re actually cooler than you because we know how to have fun. I’m not ashamed that I can’t dance… I just go with the flow. #whitegirlproblems

Overall….. I would totally do it again. Rockin’ class!

Before.. 

I didn’t expect this… the look on everyones face right now is priceless. Leandra’s going on about how stupid this is, and actually I don’t really mind it. I wish I was prepared with some “cool” dance moves, but thank gosh Kathleen isn’t here cause she’d rock out. This is interesting.. I’ve never gotten to dance in any of my classes before.. wait have I? I dont even know. Look at Mrs. Taylor dance, its so funny. This music is not my type, lets get some party rock anthem in here. oh boy, were getting up, lets see what happens… btw, I always make a fool out of myself, nothing new.

Overall.. 

I don’t know if you can consider I’ve transcended, but I’ve tried. and I went searching.. searching for results and I’ve got them.. they may not have been what I wanted, but I know I can make adjustments and improvements for next time.. I have the strength to be whoever I want to be.. and be strong for myself and others.. as an Individual I will achieve even if I fail.. because I except my attempts and it may not be good enough for you, but its good enough for me. I’ve transcended.

Truth… 

TRUTH IS… I don’t need a phone.. I mean I DO, but I realize its just having it by my side incase of an emergency. Texting and calling is nice, because you stay in touch, but I wonder what it would be like to just send letters to people instead of text. I would have liked to try that out too. Now that this whole transcending project is over.. I feel like I had so many more options to choose from but never thought about them… But if it wasn’t for these experiences I would never want to push myself further and try harder to really find who I am as an individual. Phones aren’t everything.. safety is. Texting is just a faster way of calling.. but calling is a way to hear and actually express your tone of voice.. something our generation is loosing.. The phones need to take a break.. and realize social networking is destroying our social and intellectual skills.

This is how I felt without my phone… (the first picture I took when I turned my phone back on)

Finished.. 

AND MY PHONE IS ON! and I feel relieved to know I have my phone.. the only problem is I left it lying around during school.. came home, put it down, didn’t even think about it. After those two days I finally get my phone back and I forget about it. Maybe its just the thought of having a phone for safety that bothers me.. also I don’t want to miss out on a text or call.. but in the end.. I remove myself from social networking all the time, and it doesn’t have a negative effect on me.. well. I don’t think it does. It just makes me crazy to know I have to turn my phone off. I had 10 texts and it wouldn’t tell me how many missed calls. I’m glad I can celebrate the weekend, and know that even if I get a text I can read it but not pay too close of mind to it.

Doing..  

I’ve woken up and my phone is off, and I have no idea what time it is while I’m doing my hair. Instead I have to open up my labtop and keep checking. My phone is like the size of my hand, nice and easy to access. Already, I know I’m going to have a hard day at school, but luckily its a shortened day. I want to text people goodmorning, and see how they slept, and just have those happy conversations in the morning maybe planning out my weekend speaking of tomorrows Friday. Oh, that reminds me, thank gosh I did this not on a weekend day, because I think I would cry if I didn’t have my phone on during the weekends. That is like fully removing yourself from social networking. Facebook and Twitter just aren’t the same. I go on Facebook just to look at Little hatters and twitter just to read tweets that basically sum up what I’m thinking about too. I hate this.. two days.. OH NO! I can’t wait to turn this blackberry back on… SO now its Thursday night and I’ll wait until tomorrow to turn my phone on. I literally felt so alone today while I saw everyone using their cell phones. First of all I want an I phone so bad, but at this point I’m just lucky to have a phone. I loose all connections without it. I don’t talk to my best friends, my mom, I can’t contact her to pick me up from work or tell her my plans or if I’m running late. Just having no phone is a nono.. Computers don’t even compare.. they’re just good for homework.
