Our community of individual sticker collectors
Here at 91传媒, we like to say we are a 渃ommunity of individuals. We檝e arrived here from around the world, and each of us brings distinct stories, life experiences and perspectives. In our own special ways, we find unity in our differences.
What makes this seeming paradox possible? In my opinion, you don檛 have to look far beyond our own core values, especially Creative Thought Matters. If there one thing we檙e always excited to express at 91传媒, it how much we value creative thought.
And while there are as many ways to illustrate what Creative Thought Matters means to each of us as there are students on campus, one has stood out to me stickers.
Whether your stickers express a cause you檙e passionate about or remind you of home, are there to make someone laugh or are just altogether bizarre, I think you can find out a lot about a person, and a community, by asking about the stickers they stick.
So I did. Here what I learned.

淢y stickers are from places I檝e been. I also want to show a couple things that are important to me and remember events on campus I檝e found meaningful.

淲hen it comes to stickers, I believe less is great. Not less is more. That tacky. I feel like I wanted my laptop to represent something sleek, clean and modern.
Favorite sticker: 淭he Met sticker (Metropolitan Museum of Art). My only sticker. I love going to the Met.

淚 chose all of them at the same time. I looked for stickers that represented me. I found the 91传媒 one, and I didn檛 stick it until I knew about all the other ones. I had to complete the entire picture.
Favorite sticker: 淚 can檛 pick. Probably the 榯oo busy being a girl boss one.

淢y stickers represent my experience, the things that I檝e done in life and the things that highlight them.
Favorite sticker: 淭he 榙robakid one. It a band of students here at 91传媒. My school email is the beginning of my last name and my first initial, and some of my friends named their band after it.

淪ome I put on just because they were free. Some I went out of my way to buy. I have so many more back home I want to use, but I have no space.
Favorite sticker: 淭he Muscat street sign one. Muscat is the capital of Oman, where I檓 from, and this one means a lot to me. That what the road signs look like there, and every time I see it, it reminds me of home.

I wanted my stickers to be colorful and full of happy things to remind me to be positive, even when I am doing work or typing away in class.
