I don't really know much about photography or editing.  I only take photos when i'm with my friends doing things like going to worlds of fun or going to a concert, and i sometimes take pictures with  my family.  I do not edit any photos i just post them as they are.  I do not have much interest in photo editing but i am anxious to do this project.

I love all the technology in the age we live in because it brings us all together and shows us new things we need to know, and keeps us from things we don't want to see or know.  What i dislike about this digital age is that there is not much interaction between people anymore, and communication is a big thing like in business. I use technology to do my homework, i use it to study.  I also use the internet when im bored, it is a good pastime.  Some things i don't like about technology is if all the technology went down in the world we wouldn't know what to do.

I kind of liked it because we did not have to have any talking and we could just send emails and it is overall easier and better.  What i learned from this experience was that this is what grown ups do and we need to stat learning how to.

Over the 5 day weekend I went to Dallas to see my family and friends that live down there.  It was great to see my family and spend time with them.  I ate a lot over the weekend every day i had a big plate of thanksgiving food.  I did do a little black Friday shopping i got a new tablet for $28.  It was very hard to wake up this morning and i am very tired right now.

I use apps every day a lot they can help with homework and or if you just want to play games and have fun.  If there werent any apps i would probably spend a lot more time with my family going to movies going out to eat and or just spending quality time together.

I enjoyed the global issue i picked with some things but with other things i didn't.  My global issue was animal cruelty, so you cant really enjoy that, but i did find a lot of things very interesting.  If i had the opportunity to do this again i would pick a topic that is more enjoyable, and less sad.  I really liked symboloo because it is a new thing and it is very effective, i have bee using it a lot at home and on my laptop here at school.

The features it has in it.  Plus if all the information in it is relevant then someone could really learn something from it.  Also the creativity makes it stand out as well because it is what people can come up with off the tip of their head.  I'm going to make it  very creative and very memorable by portraying new information that people haven't hard before.

While i was watching the world series last night I just knew the Royals were going to win.  They were better than the Mets at every way especially their bullpen.  The Royals were the best team in ball this year and they proved it by winning the world series.  The game ended 7-2 royals and they took the series.  The Royals parade is tomorrow and school is cancelled for it and i cant wait to go, and cheer for the Royals.

An info graphic is a visual image such as a chart or diagram used to represent information or data.  The purpose of an info graphic is to display something but in a chart as a picture.  The best information to give in an info graphic is numbers .

In 10 years i think i will be a real estate agent that lives in Florida.  I want to own a big house right off the shore of the gulf of mexico, and i think i will be married and possibly have a kid.  I will fish a lot in the ocean and catch lots of fish for my family.  I think i will have a German Shepherd because those are my favorite dogs and i really want one.  I think i will also have a pool in my backyard.  In 10 years i will hopefully be living the american dream.

My weekend was pretty good.  I didn't participate in any homecoming events but i did hang out with a lot of friends.  On Friday i hung out with friends and we went to the movies and saw maze runner 2.  Then on Saturday i worked all day.  On Sunday i just relaxed and watched football and then i worked from 5 to 10.

prezi reflection

I think that power point is a lot easier, and more effective and less confusing.  Power point creates a more effective presentation because it is all right in front of you and you can see what you are doing, and I think a lot of the tools on power point are easier.  I would use power point the next time I present a project.

My global issue choice was animal cruelty.  I picked animal cruelty because for me it is very sad what people do to animals, and I would just like for people to know the facts about it.  
There are many charities and help centers for animal cruelty.  One is the Humane society, another is the ASPCA which takes in animals that have been malnourished or abused and gives them help and then the ASPCA finds new homes for the animals. 

10/2/15

The thing i am most exited about for the homecoming weekend is hanging out with friends.  I also work at Dairy Queen on Saturday from 3-11 PM.  Then on Sunday i am going to kick back relax and watch some football.  GO CHIEFS.

Every year over 58 billion animals on farms are killed for food.    About 25 billion sea animals are killed for food each year.  Each year over 40 billion animals are killed for fur. Deliberate cruelty would be beating, shooting or stabbing an animal, or setting them on fire.

The war on terror is a huge global issue that has not yet been solved or stopped.  Terrorists are usually part of a religious group that believe in other gods and kill people with the things they do, they believe that if they die in an act of terror they will be saved and go to whatever they believe happens after they die.  Terrorism causes people to be terrified and not safe, and it is something that needs to be stopped.

5. World Peace

I agree, because we are using technology way to much and were not connecting with the people we love.  I may not use technology as much and engage in the conversations I have with people.  The new technology will eventually take over everything and we will not use paper or anything anymore which is sad.

3 day weekend

With my three day weekend I got a lot of rest.  I just hung out with friends the whole weekend, and I went out to eat with my parents on Saturday night.  Then on Sunday I just hung out with friends and went to a movie.

Kids these days are way to picky and smart mouthed.  They all use their technology way to much, and they are all very spoiled.

Choose the best medium for your audience.  You can make a video PSA using YouTube or other sites.  Make sure you do the 5 W's.  Be sure to hit your key points.  include contact information.  Capture attention.

Public service announcements are announcements from the media that let people know what is going on such as a tornado warning.  It really helps people because a lot of them come on TV and a lot of people watch TV so they see it and they are warned.

I agree with the newspaper articel, because it is true we should be preping for the future and stop living in the present.  We need to grow up and start acting like responsible adults, so that we can get jobs easier and be more mature in our words and in our thoughts.
