Hi, my name is Lauren Morden. I’m a freshman majoring in Communications. I’m from the Detroit area and I love the city! I like to spend time with my friends and family in my spare time. All throughout my life, I was exposed to art and music, so I’ve always had a strong passion for creativity. I love to think outside the box, try new things, and learn! I enjoy listening to many different genres of music and exploring different styles of art. Even though I'm not a big fan of bugs, I love being outdoors. Traveling is also something I enjoy doing. Higgins Lake Michigan is one of my favorite places to be during the summer. Over the summer I learned how to DJ and had my first gig!

Embodiment Piece
My job is to hold papers together, I think I do it well. I am a paperclip, although I am a small paper clip I still get the job done. I am used a lot by people who are in school or have office jobs. Without me, the world would have less organization and be in complete chaos. Sometimes I get bent out of shape which is a little uncomfortable but it’s a nice stretch I guess. I usually spend my time in a box with other paper clips, it gets a little crowded at times. My overall purpose is very helpful. I will make sure your papers stay nice and neat. What would you do without me? I guess not all heroes wear capes!

This represents freedom and how to not feel locked in. this also represents feeling like you can escape and be who you are.
Repeating History
