School

Third quater is stressful! Class material is getting more difficult, and teachers are expecting more from the students. The only thing that I am excited for is spring break, and after that 4th quater will finally begin. So far teachers are jamming in test and projects before we leave for spring break, which rushes the amount of time that is given for review and lectures for different material. The only thing that relaxes me right now are the weekends, but even then Sunday's are set aside to do homework.

Web Design Class

So far class has gone well. I have been caught up with all the material, and understand what we are doing. I think it's pretty interesting and fun learning all these little things about images and links. I am looking forward to learn more about web pages and any other material we will be learning later in the year.

Images

Images!!
-These past few days I have been learning a lot of information about different file types to save images. There is Jpg,gif,psd, and pnd, and they are all used with different purposes. For example if you want an image to be transperant; jpg would not be a good idea to use. The image size and color greatly effects its appearance, thats is one of the reasons that people have to be careful how they set it up and what image size they save it in.

Technology

Technology has advanced throughout the years, and in many cases this is helpful. I use my laptop for history notes and English papers that I have to write; it is every useful. It makes things easier, instead of having to waste paper and write my notes down, I can just type them with faster spead and less struggle. Phones with internet access can help in many ways. Students can use study stack through their phone which will help them with academic standards. Podcast is also used through a phone; kids are able to listen to different radio stations to help them learn the language in which they are listening to.

Winter Day February 11, 2010!!


Little Sister's quote: "Omg it looks like a movie scene!"

Todays weather is awesome, snow is everywhere and the view of the trees outside look gorgeous. Just like my little sister said, the view outside is like a movie scene; snow covers the roofs, trees are filled with snow in there branches, and the roads are covered with white snow. This is rare, having snow in Dallas but it is quite amazing! The only bad thing about today is that we have school. Many schools were either delayed or closed down because of the weather but ESD was not! I am hoping that we get an early release and go home to enjoy the snow. I would love to go outside and play with the snow and just have fun.

Good logos

A good logo should have a catchy phrase or a simple but creative image that conveys the over all point. It should be memorable, unique and appropiate. If a boring phrase or a non- interesting image is shown, it will not wow the people and will not be fascinating.


This Barbie logo is simple but stands out with the neonish pink color and the letter font type that it has.






The Toysrus logo has colorful colors, and is liable to read. The letters are in weird shape, but it gives the logo a better look and makes it look more effective.



Coca colas logo is categorized as timeless, and has not lost its popularity over time unlike others. This logo is still catchy and still effective today, making it a well designed logo.
