final concentration idea (:

this year i really wanted to do something that had a legit meaning behind it, or a concept i could explore more in-depth. when we were doing the think sheet it asked what the hardest part and most rewarding part about being a teenager was. i said that figuring out who you are is both the most rewarding and the hardest aspect. beecause it really is a struggle to express who you are or really know what you want in life, but its also really rewarding to look back on all you have accomplished.

heres what i came up with:
i want to explore the concept of identity and how people express themselves when today's society limits individuality with the labels, stereotypes, and expectations they impose on us.

i can express this idea by:
-what it means to be an individual/what makes you unique (for example, your DNA/genes)
-how people express their individuality (passions, like dancing, singing, acting, art)
-labels
-expectations
-breaking expectations: think like "a fruit loop in a bowl of cheerios" (:

im reallyyyy excited because i can really get in depth with this idea and there are a lot of ways to express the idea of identity.
