As someone who believed they would be a paleontologist growing up, this image immediately stood out to me. I was instantly hit with a wave of nostalgia, recalling moments from my childhood filled with dinosaur figurines, books, and parties (yes, multiple). However, it\u2019s a bittersweet feeling reconciling what the future currently is vs. what you thought it would be as a kid. Not to say that I\u2019m unhappy, but there\u2019s a tang of sadness when I realize I am no longer this little girl dusting off store-bought fossils in the middle of her room\u2013I\u2019m an adult, with a child of my own, watching time slip through my fingers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It took a minute to find music that successfully aided in emoting those intense feelings. The track, \u201cThe Stars Look Different (Ziggy Stardust Mix)\u201d, features an infusion of soft rock and strings, creating a melancholy ambiance that aligns with the intention of my image selection. Overall, I think the audio\/image combination enhances meaning and provides additional depth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
