Museum

Our teacher thought that it would be good idea to go to the museum. It would be a good way to learn about Indianapolis and its background because some us do not know anything about Indianapolis beside that it is a city. Also they thought it would be fun and interesting for all of us, As college student my definition for fun or things to do for fun doesn’t include museums. I wasn’t as excited as my teachers were to be able to go and see new things and ideas from different cultures. I never thought that going to the museum would be a fun thing especially when I had to do homework for it. I was surprise when I got there because the entire time i was thinking of things that I could be doing, instead of going to the museum. The reason that I was so surprised was the fact that there were so many interesting things like clothes, photos, quotes and painting. The entire time I had bad attitude but once I got there I thought it was pretty cool. The way they use to dress their clothes were so colorful and unique, Everything they had was made by hand which makes it more shocking, we just take our clothes to the cleaners or we buy new ones. The way they all work together as community which is really rare to see now days. The painting they were so colorful that I felt like they were real. I saw the painting and it was amazing the way they use the color and how it made seem so real. I did learn new things the different clothing that each tribe had and color too be able to tell the difference between one other. The paintings and clothing videos made seem so real and not so long ago. I’m not going to lie it wasn’t as bad as thought it would be. It was interesting I got to learn new ideas from different cultures and there beliefs. It wasn’t a bad field trip because I was with my classmates and it was interesting I got to learn things about Indianapolis but I wouldn’t go every weekend. It not something that sound like fun but at the end of day it kind is. I also learned that I should be more opened mind it. Before I make assumption I have to go and see and experience things before I have negative attitude.

  1. I agree about the paintings, clothings, ect. Every different tribe was so unique because of their different artifacts. I think that it was cool to see all the varieties of clothes and how much they differ to our modern clothings. I really liked their shoes, I think that if they made shoes like that today I would wear them!

  2. It is hard to just go out to a museum, because most of the the time we think they will be boring. As college students we should branch out and try new things. Museums can hold a lot of history. Going to a museum is more fun the sitting in the library reading a history book.
