Matthew’s Self-Portrait

Reflection:

I think my representation of my photo collage is innovative because I centered the picture of myself in the middle of the basketball and put the things that I like and that are important to me around it. My ideas for making my collage look like this was because I love basketball and its my favourite sport, so I wanted to center it around that. The basketball is already divided into 8 sections, so I just put the pictures in each individual section and put the picture of myself in the middle. Also, the background is a picture of an outdoor basketball court, so it made sense. I liked how it turned out. I enjoyed how it looks like everything is surrounding me, so all of the pictures represent me. For next time I think I would try to put more detail and more pictures. I have learned that I can make something nice if I have an idea and if I have something to pull from, like taking different elements from the examples and using them in this.

Self-Profile Writing:

 My hobbies are playing videogames and playing basketball. I like to play NBA 2K. NBA 2K is a franchise of basketball video games where you can play as all 30 NBA teams from present time and different eras. It is very fun. Basketball is my favourite sport. I love to watch it, and my favourite team to watch Is the Toronto raptors. I started watching them a couple years ago, and my favourite player on the team was Demar Derozan. He was the star player on the raptors but then he got traded to the San Antonio Spurs. I like him because of how he plays, and I model how I play after him. 

I spend a lot of my time playing basketball, especially in the summer. Also in the summer my uncle gave me a job to walk his 2 dogs. I had to do it about 10 times, and I had to take the bus to his house in New West Minster. 

My family likes to travel and we’ve been to all sorts of places like Quebec, Ontario, Alberta, Washington, Oregon, Alaska, the Caribbean, California, Hawaii, and Mexico. They have all been very fun vacations, but I think the best vacation I’ve been on was to the Caribbean because of the beaches. They had bright blue water and white sand.  

I have lots of important people in my life like my mom, dad, sister, and all of my family and friends. They are always there for me and are fun to be around. Also, my coaches. They have helped me develop my game and made my handles, shooting, confidence, and basketball IQ way better than what is was before.
