BAKING

JULY 2011-AUGUST 2011
20 HOURS

During my stay in Montengro I went to the bakery that is really near my house. I used to go there often when I was kid to buy bread and pastries. I asked them if I could come regularly to learn how to make bread, pretzles and pastries and they said "sure". At first, I just observed my collegeues Milos and Zivko as they made batter for the bread, putting it in the special oven, etc. It looked really fun, and with them I made the first bread. After a while, if I worked enough in the "making process" I would go to the cash register and work with customers as well. All in all, an amazing experience that I can use for the rest of my life.

RED CROSS

25/08/2011
20 HOURS

I spent several hours during my summer vacation on work with Red Cross. I was very interested in collaboration with this humanitarian organization. Firstly, I called them to set up a meeting. At the meeting, we discussed about many voloneer works that Red Cross has. On the 12th of July we went to a children's camp in a poor town Bijela in Montenegro where we brought clothes, food and movies to watch with the children. It was a really amazing day. We also spent few hours of teaching them few basic things on the computers, like using Paint, Word and playing games and music.














We came back the next weekend with more volunteers to cheer up the kids and we got to know them and promised them to come back as we did. I also contacted Red Cross in Paris, where I was able to donate clothes and books as they had a certain group of volunteers that was of full capacity, but I did my part by visiting them and donating clothes as well.

BOARD - CONSUMERISM

21/03/2011
2H

This board was dedicated to cosumerism.
Consumerism is a global issue, which every day brings more and more problemswith which Earth has to face.
Definition of consumerism:

Consumerism is a social and economic order that is based on the systematic creation and fostering of a desire to purchase goods and services in ever greater amounts. The term is often associated with criticisms of consumption starting with Thorstein Veblen or, more recently by Enoughism. Veblen's subject of examination, the newly emergent middle class arising at the turn of the twentieth century, comes to full fruition by the end of the twentieth century through the process of globalization

BOARD - CARTOONS

13/02/2011
3H


The topic for this board actually motivated me to make it as awesome as possible.
Me and Umberto had chosen the topic cartoons. Our goal was to portray the stereotypes of the cartoons, the basic conceprts of it and present a little evolution of it - from the typical cartoons which we used to watch when we were kids (and sometimes,now) to the 3D cartoons which children watch now (not a fan of, actually).
So this is how it turned out and I was really proud of it ;)

EPIDEMIC Board


So this time I got teamed up with Kirsten and we had this idea of epidemics and tried to make it a litle bit dark, but not too morbid. We ripped the black background paper and put several graves with names of most important diseases ruling the world.
So this is the final result:

Hello, ECO board.


So, basically my group (me, Hannah, Niloy) was supposed to do ECO board.
When we were assigned the topic we had ideas and stuff but we never really made it happen.
We had two weeks to get it look amazing but we didn't manage to do that.
We were doing it the last day and the result was so-so.



Our problem? - Procrastination!
Which reminds me of...


LOL!
