42. Themes  I feel like there are two themes that can be found in all of these objects and places and these are the theme of an active lifestyle and a successful lifestyle.

43. Active Lifestyle Theme  Almost everything I chose shows my active lifestyle because they are all things that I carry on myself everyday. I always have everything I need like my keys, wallet and phone. My truck helps me get around. The baseball represents the sports part of my life.

44. Successful Lifestyle Theme  All the other objects mostly represent my attempt to have a successful lifestyle. My laptop is where I do my work to try and get good grades in college. The headphones help me focus so I can do this homework. My Xbox is what I use to take a break so that I can get the best work done. Even the picture of the main building portrays my attempt at having a successful lifestyle by going to college to try and get a degree.

45. Consumerism  All these item can be connected to consumerism. The picture of San Francisco is a direct product of consumerism because the whole city is a big tourist city. The Oakland A’s picture represents the consumerism of going to baseball games. Everything in these pictures can be connected to consumerism.
