Curation Technique

Choose a submission that contains both a poem and a list. Line the shorter of the two submissions on the left side. Consider the lines of the left-side submission as curatorial themes. Arrange the longer submission on the right side according to the curatorial themes on the left side.

Seattle, 
Alone in a foreing country, 
Alone in a new english classroom, 
I restart my life, 
getting new friends, 
new experiences, 
that embrace my american short life.

American Short Life Curation

Alessia & Jack Peterson

Seattle,                                                   (windy seattle, but not rainy at all)

Alone in a foreing country,                   (only italian,)

Alone in a new english classroom,       (mostly great teacher, difficult latin words for

                                                                 asian, great improvement for my english, late 

                                                                 afternoon homework (essay), trying to do 

                                                                 always my best to improve my english, phrasal 

                                                                 verbs (still unknown), surveys, upper 

                                                                 intermediate level)

I restart my life,                                       (free spirit of a 19th girl, curious about 

                                                                 knowing everything

getting new friends,                               (Asian classmates, great group, mixed cultures, 

                                                                 fun language exchange during lunch break, 

                                                                 friendship)

new experiences,                                    (digital vocabulary, first best experience 

                                                                  abroad by myself, learning new expressions 

                                                                  through movies, get all of that experience)

that embrace my american short life.    (warm Environment, american hamburger,

                                                                   coke zero, cheddar and fries, one month lived

                                                                   like an american)
