In regards to my current life stage, I am a young adult and almost all of my financial income is paid in wage from my occupation as a lifeguard. As I am not a parent of any kids, my financial expenses consist of paying for food, clothing, transportation, and school fees.

For this assignment I was asked to make two sample sequence with images from Week 4 Assignment 2. I like sequence two the best, because it displays more of what's going on during the concert, for example, face painter with a client and a juggler in action. Sequence one is more of an introduction, that's why the opening image is an overall view of the crowd, the second image is of the band sound check, the third is the announcer, and then the band opening and so on.. I chose the closing images, because it is a final image that sums up the evening. I want the audience to interpret from the sequences that they got to experience the event themselves, from start to end.

The wand movement is a forward slash that should be aimed towards your target by the end of the move. This Charm is usually used defensively and will surround your opponent with exploding sparks, causing them slight pain. It is more of a distraction than a properly harmful weapon and must be immediately recast, which takes time and effort. This charm could be used against a crowd of Cornish pixies for example, to confuse them, allowing the caster time to escape.

The two spells/charms we learned in this lesson were the Verdimillious and the Spongify charms. Verdimillious is a spell that can be used to momentarily put a target at bay so you can either use another spell or get away quickly. That is really the only time this spell is necessary besides when you want to illuminate a room. The pronunciation of this spell is vur - duh - MILL - ee - ous.
