Word Photo

My Word: Competitive 

My Quote: Competitive people are very driven people. The best competition is with one's self. When you are competitive with yourself you learn many things the you never knew. Competing with yourself helps build your character.   

In my opinion the photo-word combination overall gives the picture a finished look and a sense of wholeness.  It gives the picture more depth and adds personal emotion to the picture. I like the way that I wrote the word competitive, but I don't like the way I wrote the quote..... my handwriting is way to sloppy for this assignment. The quote looks so uneven to me. The picture makes me feel at ease, even though its soft and not sharp enough, says the ATPI judges. Although, I kind of like that about the picture. I think the softness adds to the emotion of the picture and makes you feel it as well. I do, however, like the fact that I'm looking down... because probably no one else is in their photos and it adds to the emotion. It looks like I'm either trying really hard to concentrate or am really SAD!..... Don't ask me which.

But...... I'll be honest I don't consider myself competitive.... at least not with other people.... only with myself. When I compete with others I don't really care wheather I win or lose. But with myself, I always want to out do myself and do better then I did before. ! :)
