Both of the upcoming projects seem like they are going to be a lot of fun. I watched the video posted on the class facebook page about the personal space but I feel like many of the projects did not go far enough in terms of ideas. I want to execute something big so as of now I definitely need to begin brainstorming. I do not have any ideas for the personal space project yet unfortunately. However, I have began thinking about the personal transformation. So far, the idea I like best is to transform myself into a Disney princess. I know somewhere in my parents house my older sister left her winter formal dress from about ten years ago. At that time the fashion was a little bit more extravagant for such events which explains why the dress would work as a perfect costume for this idea. I remember she got it from David's Bridal so basically it is a big, poofy, wedding dress except that it is pink. All I would need is a tiara and heels to complete the physical transformation.

I feel like not only would this be very fun but it would actually be a challenge for me. I generally do not dress up girly or flashy at all. I like to blend into the background instead of being the center of attention. Transforming into a Disney princess would complete shatter that persona I have created for myself. I will have the chance how I am treated based mainly on my appearance and overly optimistic attitude. Anyone that knows me would probably be shocked if they saw me in character. This project also initiates discussion about the images we are presented to as children, and how they affect our appearances and expectations as adults. I am really excited about this idea although it scares me at the same time.
