Poverty has made an important impact in today’s life. This impact made people care more about this problem.

Last Thursday which was international day, I learn about how cruel is other people’s life. In every one second, there are people who suffering in the world. In addition, people in the world who got pay less than one dollar have no food to feed their family. For the people who earn money by making paper bags, they must face whether the shopkeeper will buy their bag or not. In the lunch time of the international, I realize something. Even if poor people got money to buy food, the food does not really taste good. But however, I realize that rice and potatoes and etc. is like poor people’s luxury present even if the food does not taste good.

In the presentation of poverty, the man from the crossroad tell a story of his personal experience. Once he went to a poor village, his family was finding foods in that village but there were no food. Then, they went to the city to find food in the supermarket. However, there was only four items in the supermarket: Fruit, wine…etc. (that’s all I remember). This story tells me that there are people got no food in their village cause of poverty.

To start the face project, I opened my photo on the Photoshop. Then, I used selection tool to select all of my face and clicked select-save selection and named it “Background”. Next, I did the similar things again with my photo, clicked select-save selection and choose Inverse and then saved it and named it “Head”.

Next, I split my face into half with Lasso tool. I select the left side of my face and click select-save selection and name it “Left”. Then, I did the same thing again with the right side of my face. I select the right side of my face and click select-save selection and name it “Right”.

To start the puzzle pieces project on my face, I split my face into half with Lasso tool again. I choose one side of my face that I don’t like. On that side of my face, I used Lasso tool again to cut them into puzzle pieces (more than four pieces). Therefore, I found two pictures that represent my country and other pictures that I like. I put in the pictures that I found on each of the puzzle pieces. After that, I choose a color and design for the background by using Alt-Backspace. Last, I saved it.
