On Friday, the College of Liberals Arts welcomed the class of 2016 to Temple University at the Freshman Convocation assembly. More than 600 incoming freshmen gathered to hear words of encouragement, advice and wisdom from Dean Teresa Scott Soufas, Vice Dean for Academic Affairs Jayne Drake, and fellow CLA students.
Two outstanding CLA students addressed the freshmen. D’Juan Lyons, a senior majoring in Spanish Linguistics, emphasized the importance of taking advantage of resources and opportunities here at Temple University. He challenged fellow classmates to avoid shortcuts and to go forth on their new journey “wholeheartedly and with full force.” Speaking from experience, political science major Grace Osa-Edoh shared three powerful lessons with CLA freshmen. Grace encouraged her classmates to “take it one step at a time, be ready to adapt to move forward, and ask for help along the way.”
The College of Liberal Arts wishes all of its students continued success. As Vice Dean Jayne Drake said, “enjoy and embrace your time here at Temple University."
Painfully anal about the details, Henry always takes his time setting the tables.
Polishing the cutlery until his face reflects, and the glasses are spotless, clear as the sky. The table cloths have been dry cleaned, double pressed and perfectly laid. The perfect table is all that matters.
In his own mind Henry sets tables for the queen, the president or ... a fantasy ball. No matter how hard he tries, this is all pure make believe because he's got no customers at all.
Never the less, the tables are set. Perfect to the eye, they will be ready when called.

By Ryan Johnston-
They say, these things come
In waves, and they'll find you
Writing letters, from the shoreline
Or sinking, deep to the bottom
Anchored, to this sadness
That keeps you in place
Endless, are the low tides
Tangled up, in this tension
Hanging on to the bitter end
But once in a while
Someone will come along
Cutting the lines
And you find yourself,
Moving again,
Back to the start
And, after a while
Someone will come along
Walking through walls
And you'll find yourself
Forgetting, what it was
You built so hard, to keep out
But then, there were those times
What about those times?
You and I, Charting all of those sounds
Navigating around all the bends
Planning all the routes we'd take
Those days were an open ocean
Even moving ahead
I'm still back there
Where ideas would erupt inside you
And I was the village below
How could I help but catch fire?
And now I voyage alone
Clouds block out sunlight
In all time, darkness
But once in a while,
The sun will come along
Breaking the clouds,
And you find yourself,
In daylight again,
This breeze falls around us
Becoming the wind,
Where you still move me,
Even from behind
But then, there were those times
What about those times?
You and I, finding direction
Even in the starless sky
Pulling light from the moon
Unveiled by you
And six strings, become our compass
And moving on, moving ahead
I can't help but feel, we both lose
Now I voyage alone
This breeze falls all around me
And calm is like the justice
For all those who consider
This sinking, and these wasted days
A crime against, the better things
That you have been
When the doors were wide open
And the sun poured like drops of rain
Through the cracks of swollen clouds
While everyone else, was still sleeping

I'm very glad that my research project for my master program is finally finished!
My topic was "the use of therapeutic photography and creative writing for the purpose of forming self-identity".
It was very much inspired by the usual Flickr activity: photos are taken/uploaded and some writings are done as captions to the photos.
I've indeed learnt a lot about the values of photography and writing and I believe the learning has benefited my photography too.
Thank God and everyone who has supported me in the past year.
It was a tough journey but your accompany made my life a lot easier :)
And now, my summer holiday begins!
The automatic writing project started out as an activity among friends and locals. I would write a line someone else would write a line and so on... Then people would overhear us and ask if they could participate and write something too (which surprised me) of course I said "yes!" At that point I realized that lots of people have something to say. I started asking strangers to add entries, then I graduated to offering people $1.00 to participate, some people do not accept the dollar and some pay me a $1.00 (paying it forward). It's becoming quite a lovely, surprising and compelling project. People from many walks of life are participating: homeless, a news reporter, academics, students, doctors, drug addicts, lawyers, tourists etc... People have written things in my journal that they'd never say out loud, not to anyone. Some of it's so sad, some intriguing, hilarious and so on... At the end of the day, every one of these people understand that their entries are being uploaded to the internet and are comforted in knowing that they will be heard. I have no idea where this is going, but it's going just fine! FYI: English is not everyone's first language here. I will be illustrating the book/journal after the text is done. I hope that everyone who reads these entries learns something about people, mostly that we never know what someone else is going through.

Thinking about what life is, and what death
- And beauty, in a balanced instant blast -
Today, and days to come, in the same breath.
We look over our shoulder, to the past
We see the lines on the beloved brow
And beauty, in a balanced instant blast.
Time is the line and we do not allow:
The crossing: while we jump, we freeze in skipping.
We spy the lines on the beloved brow
But we prefer to avoid the view, while tripping
On the smooth ice. Its teeth will gleam and bite
The crossing. While we jump, we freeze in skipping.
Admiring things of beauty, we rewrite
Beauty itself. Forgetting time, we skate
On the smooth ice: its teeth will gleam and bite.
Closing our eyes, we run to avoid our fate
Thinking about what life is, and what death:
Beauty itself? Forgetting time, we skate
Today, and days to come, in the same breath.
