The Art Nouveau Movement
Art Nouveau was an international style of architecture and decoration beginning in the 1880s and 1890s; it derived it’s moniker from the Maison de l’Art Nouveau, an interior design gallery which opened in Paris in 1896. The term describes the flowing organic forms of the decorative arts which flourished in France and was heavily present in Belgium, Germany, Italy, Spain and Holland as well as making it’s way across the Atlantic to America. The movement wished to turn away from the rigid aestheticism and oppressive historicism that defined the Victorian era and embrace a new approach. It’s roots lay in a large number of diverse sources such as Japonisme, Rococo, Celtic Revival and had links to the contemporary Symbolist movement. Interestingly, the forms of the movement were disseminated through magazines and shops. Art Nouveau had a massive scope, ardent followers of the movement viewed it as a complete way of life, a method of breaking all links with the classical past. Art Nouveau reached a high point at the Exposition Universelle of 1900 in Paris which exhibited the new style in every medium - painting, architecture, furniture, glassware, graphic design, jewellery, pottery, metalwork, and textiles and sculpture. However, by the beginning of World War One, the highly stylised nature of Art Nouveau design was abandoned mainly due to how expensive it was to produce; instead the cheaper, more streamlined modernism began to be favoured. However, Art Nouveau influenced a variety of art and design movements that continued to explore integrated design, including De Stijl, a Dutch design movement in the 1920s, and the German Bauhaus school in the 1920s and 1930s.

I'm planning on majoring in pyschology, this is just for my 1st year in community college
Yoga for your PE Class.
Aerobic Dance and Pilates will help you lose weight, but they are far from easy and I found them too strainful. The Fitness Center (without a personal trainer) will probably just make you accidentally gain muscle instead of lose weight, and if it's not organized you probably won't have motivation to actually do workout.
Art depends... They all sound fun. Unless it's your major though, I would go with photography, because it's so useful in real life.
Good luck!
