What does the term creativity mean and how does it apply in somebody's life? To me, creativity defines as something fun in life. The definition of the term creativity is the use of imagination or original ideas, especially in the production of artistic work. To apply creativity in life, you must include fun things like hobbies or a creative routine that you stick to daily. In my daily life, I apply creativity by doing new things, focusing more on my hobbies, and changing my routine once in a while. To apply creativity in my life, I always have a change in my routine whether it is focusing on school stuff, preparing for my first year in college, and/or doing my hobbies. My hobbies are photography, editing, and stitching. Stitching has become my new hobby ever since I visit Grand Canyon University's suture lab. Recently, I ordered a suture kit for myself so I can practice stitching when I have time to myself. I get creative while I stitch because I love to work with anything related to medicine so I have experience. Other hobbies I love to do are photography and editing. Photography and editing keep me occupied when I have nothing to do. I photograph during school, school events, or outside of school events. Outside of school, I photograph at family gatherings, and inside of school, I photograph for the yearbook. To conclude this topic, photography, editing, and stitching are some creative hobbies I have that I do in my life. I always love to change my routine because sticking to the same routine is not creative; it is boring. Applying creativity in life makes my life interesting because when I have a lot going on, it seems like my life is packed and busy with so many things.
