My Weekend

My weekend was pretty fun I must say. I went down to Lawrence to spend some time with my brother which was really cool. We went to this Mexican food place called Fuzzy s and caught up with everything that was happening in our lives. Then on Sunday, I slept all day and did homework before my parents got back from their vacation. I watched the Oscars with my mom and then I went to bed early so that I would be able to get up in time for school.

I believe that you don't have to have a perfect set of classes in order to prepare you for the life that you want to live. You learn the most  about life through personal experience; that's what is going to matter in the long run. The school stuff that we are learning now isn't going to be as helpful to us in the future than a good personal lesson taught by what you experience.

I guess I would just replace the whole concept of taking classes for school with just living life to the fullest and striving after what you love to do. I would spend my "class time" going and learning about different places in the world myself and talking to many people so that I can have my own personal perception of how people act in the world.

This "classroom" would be different from any of the ones that I have right now since that it wouldn't be in a classroom at all and would just be in the world that we live in.

Color can convey a lot of emotion when it comes to designing anything from a product to a website to an advertisement to a logo and so much more. What do you think the importance of colors on a website are? What is a color scheme and why is it important to have when designing? Explain any thoughts you might have around color in design.

Colors are very important to keep in mind when creating a product or a website because of the specific emotions that they might elicit out of someone. A color scheme is a group of colors that are all in the same shade. It is important to have a color scheme while designing so that your website looks more organized and neat. I think that color should never be neglected when designing something since that it has such a big impact on what the viewer feels.

I don't know if I agree with this quote too much. I really do believe that you should always be doing as much as you can if you can handle it. Applying this to my own life, I try to do as much as I possibly can without getting overwhelmed or stressed out because I know I can do it and I don't want to be lazy about it. If you do less in school but you have more focus, it could help your grades but its not going to make you grow as an outgoing learner at all. I would like to have less work in this class. Not because of the amount of stuff I have to get done, but because of the amount of stuff I COULD accomplish if I had more time.

My Weekend

My weekend was absolutely amazing! I went to Chicago because I was invited to be a part of the Jam Tour. I got to spend a lot of time hanging out with my social media friends and meeting all of my supporters. Traveling is my favorite thing to do in the world so it was nice to take a break from my Kansas life and go somewhere else.

I think the coolest thing that I have learned in class this year is CSS coding. I think its awesome how you can put in small codes in the CSS style sheet and it will immediately change your website's appearance.

I want to learn a lot more about how to make websites look professional while also adding my own personal touch to it. Besides that, I think the information that we are learning right now is pretty cool.

My Sweetheart Weekend

I didn't go to the dance, but instead went danced for hours with Sam in order to be prepared for the Jam Tour that I am going to in Chi Town this weekend. Besides dancing, I watched the Super Bowl with my family and studied math all weekend since I have to keep my grades up to be able to travel around the country.

I'm not too upset that I didn't go to Sweetheart to be honest because I really don't like anybody that goes to my school. There are only a handful of kids that I can actually tolerate, but that's not really the point. As far as you know, I could just be saying all of this because I am "butt hurt" about not even being asked in the first place. I got a beautiful prom date, and honestly, that's all I can ask for and I am genuinely happy with that.
