Blog Post #1: Design

     "Every day is a new adventure," my dad would tell me as I got out the car to wait for the school bus.  My father told me this simple little saying every day, a tradition, I would carry on to my blog so I could track and document all the big and small adventures AP Literature has to throw my way.  The background in itself has distorted shapes, with bright colors.  When I think of an adventure I think of bright, lively colors that promote excitement and readiness to set out on a new experience.  The blurred lines and distorted shapes show that we never distinctly know what to expect as we step out the doorstep every morning.  Especially in high school, us students tend to plan everything, but in reality, anything is possible. 

     Like I said before, this blog is to document all my adventures, therefore I chose a font that would resemble handwriting, so that it looks like a handwritten diary with a collection of adventures I’ve taken through the trimester.  The bold text represents my personality.  I’m not afraid to show who I am or who I perceive myself to be.  I wear bold colors, I’m not afraid to step out of the normal boundaries.  I’m out of the ordinary, just like my blog.
