My personal space on campus is the MLK fountain in front of the Marshall Center. The first time I sat there was before I was even a student at USF. I was here for a tour of the campus with my dad during my senior year of high school and in the middle of the tour I had an emotional breakdown. We were sitting on the benches near the fountain and I started to cry. I was overwhelmed about going to college and scared to leave my family and friends. I couldn’t picture myself here at USF. This is kind of a sad memory, but it has made that place very special to me as I have grown to live and love my years at USF. My freshman year I did one of my first photography projects there and first realized my love for art. I also spent time there with my current boyfriend, Adam, over the summer on one of our first dates. We jumped in the fountain for a swim and then laid out in the sun to dry. I still always remember that day with my dad, and how sad I was and scared. If only I had known how rich my life would become at USF.
So, to advertise our performance, I first thought it would be a good idea to take my box head to my personal space and use it (and myself) as the advertisement. However, I had second thoughts about giving our idea away that easily and decided to hand out flyers myself instead. Most people seemed friendly and interested, but of course there are always those few who turn them down.
