Unusual Edition by Sara Chan

January 11th, 2009 6:14 AM

INSTRUCTIONS: Make a book out of an unusual material.

It took me awhile to figure out what medium I was going to use for this task. At first I was leaning towards perishable materials, but I felt that if I was going to put in the effort to make a book out of unusual material, I wanted to keep it around. However, I didn't want to acquire more things into my house, so I decided to use some interesting, colorful, and expendable materials that needed to be put to use in something creative! The book is filled with some of my favorite quotes/sayings/lyrics, and I typed them in under the description of each according picture. I hope you all like my creation!

"Only this one is straining away, straining away all the time to make something of itself. The strain's so great that every sixteen hours everybody lies down and gets a rest." -Thornton Wilder, Our Town //Out there There's a world outside of Yonkers Way out there beyond this hick town There's a slick town Out there Full of shine and full of sparkle Close your eyes and see it glisten//

//Things I've felt but I've never said You said things that I never said You Don't Know Me But can you go back once you know? It's not gonna come out like I wanna say it...// \\Did you think that your feet had been bound By what gravity brings to the ground? Did you feel you were tricked By the future you picked? Well, come on down Did you think you’d escaped from routine By changing the script and the scene? Despite all you made of it You’re always afraid Of the change\\
