    When we look at the world today, not all of us enjoy art, not many of us practice it, But no one is surprised when someone comes along from our friends or family who is deemed talented at art.

    As a millennial myself I felt as if this article was sometimes true, but for the most part not factual nor accurate. In fact the author Ellen Byron comes off as biased too often. Stated in paragraph it says that millennials grew up playing Xbox, playing soccer, and having dance recitals. It followed with a sentence saying we as millennials did not spend much time helping mom or dad in the yard. This is where I disagree.…

    A Puerto Rican Experience

    Growing up in the city I was encouraged to embrace the expression of art and I gained exposure to it in a wealth of ways. I enjoyed seeing the love and passion exude from the pores of my relatives, like my grandmother through a paintbrush on a canvas where she created life-like portraits or like my closest uncle making music in the studio from sunrise to sunset later going on to produce chart-topping tracks for music icons like Michael Jackson, Jessie Powell and more. I worked creatively alongside friends who were writers, filmmakers and vocalists, and volunteered as an intern for a fashion styling company in Manhattan. These experiences instilled in me a love for creativity and freedom and it was in this time of my life that I realized my passion for the power of expression. However I couldn’t fight the overwhelming sentiment that I wanted to be an advocate for others seeing how in my city, creation and art are at the core of our peoples’ livelihood, which I always sought to help…

    Rachel Lowry writes in her essay “Straddling Online and Offline Profiles, Millennials Search for Identity” that according to a recent online study, one out of four Millennials say they can only be their true self when alone (p. 500). But in this modern age of social media and smartphones, are we ever truly alone? Everyone can be connected with people all over the world in a second, and everyone can easily find out information about whoever they want with a simple Google search. Consequently, even if someone shuts off their computer and phone, any personal information they've posted about themselves is still out there for anyone to find. In addition to people constantly sharing aspects of their daily lives on social media, monitoring apps and…

    In the Pre-K classroom that I observed it consisted of several different centers for the children to participate in, such as: block area, dramatic play, art, library, sand/water table, music/movement, sensory area, finger painting, play dough, and the students got the opportunity to make their own snacks. Not only did the students get to participate in centers, they had the opportunity each day to go outside and play on the playground as well as having an interactive lecture every morning at circle time and when the students sat down at their tables to do their daily worksheet. I believe that the Pre-K class I observed was a mix between traditional teaching as well as constructivism, creating a balance between the two. In the morning during circle time, the teacher would “lecture” the students with the letter of the day, go over the date, months, days of the week, shapes, and the numbers up to the date it currently was.…

    Although I am not certain of my specific career path, I hope setting aside time for graduate study will support me in solidifying my passions and finding my purpose. However, in essence I wish to support and facilitate the magic of museums. I am moved by the times I was struck with awe looking at a dinosaur replica as a child, excited by stone tools from ancient societies as a teenager, or inspired by an artist’s dynamic brushstrokes as an adult. I want to internalize these experiences and connections, using my work to recreate them for others. Allowing visitors to forge unique memories while inspiring wonder is my ultimate…

    Everybody in the millennial generation has had some sort of generalization put upon them by an older generation. In the case of Goldfarb’s article and the studies done by Goldman Sachs we as a generation generally believe specific values as a whole and vice versa. I as a millennial believe in some of the said values myself and I agree that other millennials have beliefs that match the studies. Also, on the other hand, I disagree with some values stated by the article for myself and other millennials. This being said, everyone is different and there is not a specific generalization that you could put on a millennial.…
