Matt Home

I really liked how Matt opened up his first page with a song. I thought that it went really well with the picture of his fiancée and his feelings towards her. From Matt’s first slide I learned a lot about him that I did not know before, like he came from Kentucky in hopes of building a church and that he was getting married in September this made me want to read more and find out other interesting things I do not know. Matt’s next slide was about his church. From his text you I could tell that his church meant a lot to him and that he put a lot of time and effort into building it. My only suggestion would be to maybe include a picture of the outside of the church, or the big crowd of people that show up each week instead of the band.

Jen Home

Jen’s concept of home was very different from everyone else’s. That being said I really liked it. I liked how she relates home to a feeling of comfort and the ability to adapt and make wherever you are at the time home. Her first picture of her sideways pointing to herself showed that she makes home wherever she is and that no matter where she is she makes the best of each situation. You see this come up again in the picture of her and her roommate in Jordan, Even though they were in a scary place and were kind of nervous they made the best of the situation and ended up having a good time. I also really liked how Jen connects her past home with her current and future home. In the slide of her current home I liked the picture of her two roommates, but it would have been even better had she chosen a picture that showed the three of them.

Safiya Home

From the first page I thought that safiya’s concept of home would be similar to Jen’s, from her title and her first photo, which were both of her name. However after reading her text you were able to tell that family makes up a big part of Safiya’s home. In the text we found out how important her picture was to her and that her sister had made it for her. I think that by adding her sister to the picture it would have made the image stronger and showed the relationship, without reading the text. I really liked the page with her countries flag and her text about the flag. It showed a lot of emotion, a sense of pride and dedication to where she comes from, which is something many of us can relate to. I think that the only thing that needs to be changed would be the background, so that it would be easier to read.

Eddie Home

I really liked the way Eddie set up his pages, even though they did not show up the way he intended I thought it looked really good. I also liked how Eddie used another language to describe his concept of home and how home for him is in two places. His first picture was of his family, however I did not see Eddie in the picture. From this picture you were able to see how happy his family is and how much fun they have together. Eddies next picture was of his mom and brother, the text talked about his relationship with them but again he was not in the picture.
