As I explained there, I\u00a0have a lot of trouble letting my creative juices flow. I get hung up on projects not being perfect and end up abandoning them halfway through. Or at least I did. This year has been a year of falling back in tune with my creativity. Blogging with the crew has given me the opportunity to find beautiful things in the places around me and forced my to\u00a0stop letting my camera collect dust. I really felt like I had met this goal yesterday, when I got to see my work printed in the new UC Review.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09267.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-28275\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09267-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"390\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09267-1024x683.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09267-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09267-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThe UC Review is an annual collection of student poetry, prose, photography and art, that's been running\u00a0for the past 40 years. This year's edition, which returned after a short hiatus, is absolutely beautiful, with brilliant work and brilliant design.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09253.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-28271\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09253-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"stacks of old UC reviews\" width=\"584\" height=\"390\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09253-1024x683.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09253-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09253-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nUC is one of the bigger colleges at U of T, \u00a0and at times this can make it feel difficult to find a sense of community. However, I found that flipping through the review made that feeling go away entirely. What I love most about the review is that it gave me a chance to sample all of the hidden talents of the students that I\u00a0walk by or bump into grabbing coffee everyday, that it gave\u00a0me a chance to find a little community of artists hidden inside my\u00a0college.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09276.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-28278\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09276-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"390\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09276-1024x683.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09276-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09276-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\r\nFrom college journals to faculty newspapers, there are tons of opportunities on campus to have your work seen. If you're looking for a way to get your creative juices flowing, I would definitely recommend submitting your work to one of those publications. There's no better feeling than seeing your work printed for the world to see, and it's a great way to find a little creative community hidden right under your nose.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09291.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-28277\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09291-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"876\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09291-683x1024.jpg 683w, http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2016\/04\/DSC09291-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\r\nYou can pick up free copies of the\u00a0UC Review from the Alumni Lounge\u00a0in University College.
