The picture
I see a man in his bed who appears to be dead. He has a gun in his hand and blood on him. The colors are kind of bland. The only color that really stands out is the red. The picture is kind of blurry so it took me a while to figure out what was going on. I think that this is a very depressing picture. The red in the picture, to me, is put there to intensify the horror of the situation. There is nothing happy about this painting either. Everything seems to be dark. This word to me is ok. I think that the artist was successful in getting the message that he wanted across, but I would never put this in my home. It's too dark.

Over my spring break i went to Gary Indiana, my home town. My aunt, her husband, and her three kids picked my up. It takes 5 hours to her there from Owensboro so i just slept and listened to music on the way. once i got there i didn't do much. i stayed up late, watched tv, and baby sat the kids. a couple of times we went to the mall and walked around and bought a few things. we also went bowling, but the alley broke down, so we gor our money back. we also played a little pool and my team won. i finally got home yestersay on sunday and stayed up late last night.

I prefer the Romanticism. this period had more action and seemed more exciting! The artist made something of their art word. Instead of naked women and death, they made an action scene. Or maybe they just painted a simple landscape. It was relaxing. It brought emotion, and as a result, it is my favorite between the two. Although the other one was nice, this one just seemed more interesting. It has stonger scenes that make you want to look at the picture. It captures you eye so you want to study it some more and find out what it's about.

Right Brained
1.What were your percentages for Left-Brain and Right-Brain?
32% left brain 68% right brain
2.What were your percentages for the sub-categories?
Left Brain Percentages
42% Symbolic (Your most dominant characteristic)
27% Reality-based
20% Verbal
16% Linear
14% Sequential
9% Logical (Your least dominant characteristic)
Right Brain Percentages
53% Holistic (Your most dominant characteristic)
48% Fantasy-oriented
44% Nonverbal
39% Random
37% Concrete
15% Intuitive (Your least dominant characteristic)
3.What sub-categories had the highest and lowest percentages? Read the description of each. Do you agree with these results?
Holistic had the most and Logical had the least. I do agree with this. I don’t like to start in the middle of a problem. That doesn’t ‘make since to me. If I start from the beginning I can get all of the facts and see how to solve the problem. Although I actually am pretty good at science and math.
4.What does it mean to be “Right-Brained” or “Left-Brained”?
If you are right brained you are more creative and left brained is more structured.
5.What did you think of the test and its accuracy?
I think that the test is pretty accurate.

Wolfey!
Salieri was confined to an insane asylum for the last couple of years of his life. It was during this time that he “confessed” to killing Wolfgang Mozart. However, a person can confess to anything—that does not simply make it true. Perhaps Salieri felt guilt for a personal interaction with Mozart, one that pushed Mozart so far that Salieri started to believe he actually did kill Mozart himself. Mozart probably died of an infection and Salieri probably had nothing to do with it. Mozart had health problems throughout his life, and suffered at times from smallpox, tonsillitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, typhoid fever, rheumatism, and gum disease.
