Lesson 1 : Creativity.

This weeks lecture in Creative Studies class was about Creativity. I find the lecture to be rather interesting. The way our lecturer's approach in getting our response and attention was rather different. He was basically explaining the definition of Creativity and Creative. Hence, this weeks blog journal will be about this.

The first thing that comes to my mind when he or anyone mentions the word Creative is new ideas. It is also the ability to produce something fresh like a new way of living or a new way of using certain things. There are actually many meanings to this word but generally they all mean the same thing. Creativity however usually means seeing something differently than how it is normally seen. An example of something creative is a pair of fork and spoon. Today, so many people have looked for creative means of using and improving fork and spoons and the way we use them to eat something. These brainstorming process may take ages but what comes later on is really creative. What people have invented long after that was this thing called "Spork" or also known as Spoon + Fork = Spork. Hence, i believe creative is a way, of someone, seeing things differently. Mainly, creative gives us an idea of something catchy. Example is the spork used today.

I believe everyone is creative. Creative is a way of life, a way of seeing things and i believe that everyone in this world is born creative. It isnt a skill but if you polish it, it will be a skill. But in every one of us, there is creativity that lies within our souls and minds. I also think that creativity comes natural. The harder you think of creating something creative, the harder it will get for you to produce it. Usually, the times that never occur to you, will be the times that those ideas come flowing. Creativity is also said to be a way of solving a problem. Generally how to make your life easier. It is interesting to see so many creative things that people have come up with and sometimes you wish you could do the same. Infact, you can. Creativity isnt something you have to work for to get it. If you embrace it, creativity will show. Creativity comes in anything, even pictures.

Thus, I believe that creativity comes naturally. It cannot be forced, for it will come slowly. The best creativity has a sense of simplicity and is unique. So let us all as creative students, embrace it.

Here are some quotes id like to share with everyone.

"A great book provides escapism for me. The artistry and the creativity in a story are better than any drugs."-Wentworth Miller

"A hunch is creativity trying to tell you something."-Frank Capra

"A wonderful emotion to get things moving when one is stuck is anger. It was anger more than anything else that had set me off, roused me into productivity and creativity."-Mary Garden

Toodles.
