Midterm Assignment 1: Taste & Aesthetics
For our special assignment I been got to Olympic Sculpture park, to find one of sculpture what I do not like, or more. From first minutes of my walk I sow one thing that I actually did not understand. I came closer. That were five big black metal daemon on ground, and that was a sculpture. An author of that thing is Tony Smith. I am not really good understand in sculptures, but I did not like it from first view, and it was that what I need for assignment.

I get home in go internet to find some information about Tony Smith and his Wandering Rocks. I looked pictures of his different works, they all has some similarity, all black, metal and with corners. No, his different sculptures did not affect on my mind, and I steal do not like it. I read his biography, than read comments of different people. Most of them wrote that he was great man and sculptor, and that all his works are beautiful. I was totally disagree with those people, maybe I do not know story of that sculpture, but after long time of researching I did not find information, and I stayed with my first opinion.

Midterm Assignment 2: Manipulation
Slick 50® Advanced Formula Engine Treatment. On bottle of that written that this is best engine care fluid, it clean and save engine in good condition for long time. You can add it in gas or in oil, Best Mechanic in One Bottle. But www.consumerreports.org said that is supper bed thing for any engine, it is not only don't help engine, but make it more unsafe. Slick 50 company get millions of fees because thousands of were cars broke because of it.

Midterm Assignment 3: Always Wanted To Progress Report (100 words or so)
I doing ok with my project about learning play on guitar. This is became much harder than I thought before I began that, but I already got 7 lessons  from 24. On weekend I learning lessons, in other days, after school, I am doing practice work. In present time I already can play something but really, really slow. I think I need more practice to speed up, for it need more time, and maybe I could not finish all lessons to the end of week 8, but I think I will play better then now!

Self-Assessment
From first days I thought this class will be very hard for me, because there need to talk and write, and I have problem with English sometimes. I can't say what I learn a lot in this class that I did not know before, also I can't say opposite. I think program in this class was not learn, but understand what you already know. For me this class was interesting and useful, cool teacher made that time more fun. Project "I always wanted to" give me a chance to learn how to play on guitar, if not that, I think maybe my guitar still were in shop. Other project help me learn language, I learn about 30 words that I did not know. And more experience talk in front of public, I always had problems with that. Something I made not right, or not how I wanted to do that, but I can add it to my experience for future time too. I do not regret about what I was in this class.
