As I make my way to the second Art class of the year,I can't help but replay the events of my first day of university in my head.Something, I'm not exactly sure what is giving me a good feeling about this year.The atmosphere,the feeling and the buzz around me are all things that are making me feel highly positive.
Allah is answering my prayers of wanting to succeed and accomplishing my dream in a good and encouraging environment.There were times when I wanted things to happen quickly , and for my prayers to be answered immediately.However,after growing up since then I have learnt a lot like Allah always has a better plan for us than we have for ourselves so we must keep that in mind . Also,that things happen when the time is right . Sure we want our dreams to come true as soon as possible and we want to get things now but patience is a really important trait to have.One of many things that keeps me going and striving for my dream is that it will come true when it is my time and when I am fully ready.That's the other thing,we may think were ready right now but when we truly are ready and Allah approves it will happen.
I finally reach the class and take my seat from yesterday.Once everyone is seated Ms. Evans reveals our first assignment"Class your first assignment will be to partner up with someone that does Photography"
When Ms Evans said that she gained the whole classes's attention.With a smile she continued,"Once you are partnered with someone that does photography , you will swap roles, photography students will try and do the Art aspects of the project and the Art students will have to do the photography part in the project.The topic for the assignment has to somehow link in with both the past and the future."
After finishing her announcement ,the class responded with mixed feelings.I for one think the first assignment is highly intriguing.I believe I can really learn a lot from this project.First thing is first,I need to find a partner.
Before I get up from my seat,Adam who is sitting next to me asks"Do you want to be partners?"
I ask him curiously "You do photography ?I thought you did Art" He chuckles with the reply"Photography is a form of Art right?"I just smile and say "Sure let's be partners"
After I give that reply ,the class comes to an end and everyone rushes out as it is lunch time.I on the other hand, am once again captured by my thoughts and one thought in particular .That thought is that there is more to Adam than I initially thought.I find it interesting discovering why Art is important to individuals.The deep meaning it has to them and how it has helped and continues to help them.This is why I want to know why it is important to Adam and just what it means to him.
As I left the class,I made another goal to add to my list of goals .That goal was to find out what Art meant to Adam and this assignment was the perfect opportunity.
