This is collage was submitted by Krisitn Mitchell for my Social Psychology course.
Kristin explains through this collage the following:
"For the Love Option Assignment I chose the Attraction Collage. I somewhat changed it a bit by making it more of a Love and Attraction Collage. In the directions it says to do one part over yourself and the other over a significant other, with the freedom of how to make it. My collage expresses what I find attractive about my significant other, myself and how we fit together. It is represented in two halves of a heart and in a larger heart surronding the inner heart. This represents our two halves joining together.
One side of the inner
heart is my significant other, Ilija. These pictures are ranging anywhere from
his smiling, acting silly and giving me the look. One of Ilija's most attractive
features is his smile. I am quite picky on teeth, but Ilija has very nice straight
teeth to make his smile brighten up his face. He also has adorable dimples that
he tries to hide. Eyes are also an important facial feature to me. I think when
you can look at someone you love in the eyes
you can feel what they are feeling. Ilija has pretty eyes, they are blue/green
with long lashes surrounding them, making them very dramatic. His face fits
together hperfect, there isn't anything that I would change. I honestly don't
think there is anything that could make him more attractive to me. His body
is also very attractive. He has a good build that is not bulky and not too tall.
I also like how he has the power to make any kind of weird or crazy face for
the camera, or me, and still look amazing. He makes it very hard to get upset
with him.
The other side of the inner heart is showing pictures of me. This collage shows that I have gone through many different appearances. My hair went from quite long to very short, (but lengthening in process). The hair style that I believe makes me most attractive are my long hair pictures. I think this makes my chubby cheeks look a little thinner. I really like my smile and my teeth, I am obsessed about nice teeth.) I have grown to liking my appearance more than what I use to. In a way I have accepted that this is me and I won't be able to really change most of it. But one thing that I do change is my eye color. I am not really happy about my natural eye color, they are a plain brownish hazel. I do have one thing that if I could I would change an that is my height. I am quite short compared to the average height of girls my age. I don't think I am growing anymore either. Back to my whole appearance, I know I am not model material but I do think that I look alright. I look good enough for someone else to fall in love with me.
The outer heart border has pictures of Ilija and me. This part is to show what the inner heart grows to, him and I coming together. As it can be seen he has remained mostly unchanged. I, however, have gone through a few different looks, (as explained in the above paragraph.) I like our height difference , I think it is just right. We fit together good, making what I believe a very attractive couple. Not only by our physical appearance, but by how you can tell that we are truly happy together. I think love can show through in pictures, as so many other things. As the old syaing is, a picture is worth a thousand words.
