My hour of watching the visual elements in my daily routine started when I woke up. The first thing I noticed was a large goldfish box in the corner of my dorm room. It advertises the fact that it doesn’t have any artificial preservatives or any trans-fat in bold print at the top of the box. In the center of the box there is a large smiling goldfish and a picture of a block of cheese which says that the cracker is made with real cheddar cheese. The next thing I noticed was a flyer on my way out of the dorm to breakfast. It was white and was advertising the RISE (Residents in Science and Engineering) tutoring which would happen in the lounge 6:30- 10:00 Sunday to Thursday. There is a picture of a person writing on a massive chalk board what looks to be a large equation or math problem. In yellow highlighter there is the words “Advice form upperclassman Engineers who have been in your shoes” and “We can help” in bold print. Lower on the flyer there is the words “Get ahead of the curve” in a nice looking cursive font. The next flyer I noticed on the way to my first class of the day was for the Residence Hall Association. It was a fourth sheet of paper colored orange. The page was headed with the question “Want to improve your residential experience?” and was shortly followed by “We are your VOICE!!”. It stated the time of the interest meeting and when the elections were held. Lastly in bold again it said find out more on facebook and then provided a shortened link. A few more flyers flew by advertising intermural sports and other organizations followed by a a board with a picture of all the dorm’s Residential Assistances. Then I was out the door headed towards the harcomb dining hall. I first saw the atm wall with names and logo’s of all the banks represented there, including Bank of America. I then saw a blue and white sign for the post office, and a neon sign that said “open” at the paw mart. I walked into harcomb and my attention was instantly captured by the spectacular looking plates where the meal options were laid out on the table in front of the register. Interestingly enough I can never remember my meals ever looking that impressive. I walked to the Cereal area and got some fruit loops. I noticed the signs above each different meal station advertising the food they were serving and they had images of the type of food they regularly serve. I noticed the napkin holder had a card inside it that listed all the dining halls meal plans and their cost. Next thing I knew I was heading out the door to my first class of the day. I saw a white speed limit sign which said 25 in black. Lastly as my hour expired I notice an orange Clemson Tent outside of Copper Library selling first Friday orange tee shirts.
