Audacity

It was hard to find sounds that combined and to put them together so they could have a good rythm. Abother challenging thing was that you had to listen to a lot of sounds and those sounds were simple and we needed to have 60 second of it. If I could change the song that a creatd I would look in a nother part for sounds, because I heard a friend's song and it was amazing because its sounds were longer. It wasn't really difficult to make it, the hardest thing was to match them up. I would also use nore sounds. I think I need nore time to make something good. Even though we had enough time, it wasn't the only thing that we had to do, we also had homework. I didn't like this project a lot, but I still love music.

Audacity

Making my musgup was frustraiting and at the same time really fun. It was hard to choose the songs because some don't sound good together. I changed it like four times to see which one would match. Finally I chose three songs that I like a lot. Stereo Love is one of them, I tried to use it as a base so it sound it cool. The other one was 2012, this one is a fun song that makes the rythm. Last but not leats is Just the Way you are, this song is soft but I like it because and I made some parts louder. The process was frustraiting because I didn't know how t make it, and I think it doesn't sound great but I tried my best by putting 3 songs. It was hard because I couldn't make it exaclty loud the way I wanted so I had to lower the other songs. I wish I could learn more about because I would like to make a really cool one. To find Just the Way You are click here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LjhCEhWiKXk and to listen to Stereo Love click here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-Z3YrHJ1sU and lastly click to see and hear 2012: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uFalk1y38I

Mash-up

A mash-up is when a person blends together songs. I like this mash up http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkHJ2-zoSB4 because I love the songs and the guy that sings it has a good voice. Also, I like this mash up because the songs they put together are great: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lM8BZFjPybE&feature=related. When people make really bored ones or when they put songs that don't sound good together, they ruin everything. To improve or to make a good mashup here is a link you should look. http://www.mashupciti.com/what-is-a-mashup/how-to-make-a-mashup/
I've heard earworm you should hear it he has good mashps. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNzrwh2Z2hQ. Some people are not musicians just because they created a mashup, I think only the ones that do a good job.

Artifact(:

It was really hard for me to create an artifact. I couldnt find a tutorial that was easy and that I could understand. I had a lot of trouble finding the correct one because I couldn't understand most of them. I did this project three times because of the tutorials, I coulntd finish them, I tried more than three times but I almost finished 3 of them. The last one wasn't the best idea but I tried.


I chose Julians artifact because it was well done. Its very intersting. I like the rain even though is not easy to see, its really cool when you look at it closely. I like teh cat that he chose, and the was he made it a rock. I admire how he change it to rock. Another thing is that he did something extra, he put rain even though it was good without it. I think it looks better with the rain. Here is his work:




I think is really cool, I like it because I see something special on it. Also it looks real, I would have it outside of my house so people could see it. I would buy it if is not very expensive. Its very interesting but if its expensive I wouldnt buy it. It would help people because they could hide cameras there for robers and it helps your house so it looks better. It's a cute artifact.

My future artifact

My invention are three things together, eventhough they would be sell separately. One is a mask that alouds you to breathe under water with your nose and without a tank, you can also talk while you are under water, it will be transparent. You can make your own design and order it or if you want a professional designer could do it for you, or you might like it with just one color. The other one is going to be a cellphone that you can use under water. You can take pictures or talk to someone(video call) and show them were you are and the beatiful things in the sea. The other one is your ipod underwater, you can bring any generation you have to our cmpany and we would change it so you can listen to music under water. Your cellphone and your I pod would look the same, the difference is that now, you would be able to have fun under water! In 2015 would be in available in YellowMellon Store.

Family Gathering


Every holiday all the family gathers. Th emost memorable day was in Christamas about two yars ago. It was amazing. Most of the time we go to Mexico City, but this time we stayed in Vallarta. I remember we were all together. Except for my grandfather that passed away 10 years ago. We were all having fun like never we opened presents and played all night. Its one of the only ones that ALL the family is there. I say this because my uncle has to work or he goes to Cuernavaca with his other family. I like to be with all of the members because we are a very little family. all in all we had a great time because we laughed, the food was delicious and we were all there!

Family Tree



The most challenging thing was that most of us didnt know how to use photoshop, and when someone knew everyone was asking that person. Also when the person didnt know how to do somwthing you had to change a lot of things. I find it hard to choose the frames, some of them didnt fit well in the picture of the person. Another thing was that I coulnt find pictures of my grandparents. Then, I most of us dont have photoshop so its hard for us to write blogposts and to do photoshop in one day. I over come it because I had a computer with it but it didnt had internet and then the charger was dead because that computer is really old. I also put my uncle, my sister's boyfriend and my dog. I today i upload my family tree evnthough I had already had written everything.

Family Tree Frames

I chose thos eframes because my favorite color is purple. I also wanted to have something fun. I didnt choose brown because I think is ordinary and that the color is too gray. I Also used blue because I think this colors together look good. Blue is also a color that I like. I used purple for girls because the frame that I used is girly. I used the blue frame for boys because I liked how it looked.

Tree


I chose this tree because I wanted something different from others. I aslo loved the color, its very different from the ordinary trees you see every day. Another thing is that there is enough place to put all my family the way I want. Also, this tree reminds me of something special. Once we went to a place were all my family went and we saw a tree, its was like the one I chose. Finally, I love this tree.

JOY

I went to mexico city. This was one of my favorite summers. I hanged out with some friends that live there. I went to visit my family and we went to many different places. First we went to six flags. It was really fun because my two cousins and my sister were with me. My favorite thing there was called SPLASH! It was really fun. My aunt opened a new job, so she did an inauguration. My cousin, my sister and I danced all night long. I loved that day a lot, because we also met knew people and some of them were nice.

I would like to travel far away from Mexico. One example is Europe or Russia, I would like to study in Barcelona. I haven't been there but my dream is to study there. I don't know since when or why, but i wish i go someday. Another thing that I want to do by myself is create something new and special. I hope someday I do something like this because is important for me. Some people might think is boring, but i don't. I also will like to write a song. Writing songs make me calm and my mood changes a lot.

Something that makes me special and unique is that I'm sweet and funny. Maybe other many things make me special but i see this ones. I'm this way since I was little, thats why i think is different. I like to hug people and laugh with my friends. Even though sometimes is too much and we cry because we laugh a lot. I think I'm not the only one with this characteristics, but I like them a lot. Hopefully I never change, and if a change i wish a change for good reasons.

Tired of MAP testing


Last week we have MAP testing. I hate MAP testing, we do it every three months, I think. I don't like them because they are long and boring. The good thing is that we miss classes. Another bad thing is that sometimes we haven't finished and the bell rings, so that makes most of the people to click random answers. We did a paragraph of MAP testing on October, I think I mentioned most of the things I have here. In this tests I have learn many things, even though I hate them. I wish they could be different and once a year. When I think that we still need to do more it makes me sick! Hopefully they change or we stop doing them. All in all, I don't like them in more ways than I like them.

Presentations

Today I saw other presentations, I like them, and they were original. What I would change of my presentation is that I would out more interesting things that entertain my audience. More pictures and I would make them smaller points, so they don't think I'll read everything. Another thing is that I would be more careful with my spelling. Other presentations had more pictures and funny things, I would also put funny things to have others attention. Also, I would put more animations, but not a lot of them because they would pay more attention to the animation than what I say. All in all, my power point presentation wasn't that bad. I also liked the other presentations that I saw today.

Power Point Presentation(:

If you don't want to have bad presentations read this.
1. Every Word= When you are talking to the audience don't read every word that is in your slide because its boring.
2. Spelling= For some reason they underline your word, if you think is correct cehck it.
3. Bullets= Don't put bullets. example:
° sdfghjkl
°sdfghjklñ
°dfghjkl
4. Color schemes= You should have a dark backgroung and a llight color for your font, this will make your words pop out.
5. too many slides= the are boring, and it makes you forget things and you will have less info.
6. too much data= If you have too much data you would confuse the audiences and yourself.
7. Over animatiors= This can distract your audience and they wont put attention to your information
8. Font= EVERYONE should be able to read your words.

Earth Day Evaluation

Yesterday that I evaluated the videos, I learned that I shouldn't write my last name, I needed to have audio without words and but, with our voices. Also, I saw other videos and I learned more things while I watched. I learned new great ideas and different of how making them. If I could change something of my video, I would remove lasts names, I would try to find the track of the song without the words. I didn't like one of the videos that I graded. One was ridiculous and they repeated pictures. The pictures weren't selected carefully because they didn't have a lot to do with the theme. But what I liked was that it was funny, even though they didn't have nothing to do with the theme. The other one was better because they selected nice pictures and wrote interesting things and it was also funny. What I didn't like was that the funny part didn't have to do with the theme.

biography "L"

Hi, I live in Helkinsay, my actual name is Socorro Wilmer Timbra Bumgarner Tsubasa my favorite colors are orange and blue together. In Helkinsay there are many malls but i don't like to hangout with my friends. I think I don't have friends, I'm not a social person. I consider my self punk and loser, I hate to socialize, I'm really anti-social, thats why the call me L, L stands for Loser. I don't understand why people like to hangout with their parents. My favorite songs are heavy metal and metal. I don't care what people think about me. I only talk with my turtle, he is the only one I can trust and he understands me. I know he will always be there for me, even though he is dead. My turtles name was Rizumu, we used to cry together for fun, thats how we played. On Facebook I have only 12578 friends, I like to add people and never talk to them. I really don't use Facebook. My boyfriend is 12 years older than me, I don't like him that much but we are loners so people say we are the best couple ever. My parents are never at home, they let me do what ever I want so I never go to school, only when I'm bored, most of the time. I hate the computer and I don´t like too much music, just metal and heavy metal. Thats all I ca say about me. Im the one in the middle

Animation of the 8th graders

I liked what the 8 graders did because it was well organized. Also, the music made it entertaining, I liked the first part. Another thing that I liked was Laura's animation, I think it was original and well animated. They did a great job working together, it looks really good. It seems like only one person did all the animations. One thing that I didn´t like was that in some parts the background wasn´t animated howit was supposed to.

Sixth Sense Project

I think this will make our lifes easier and funner. I would like to have one. I cant imagine all the work they did to invent this kind of things. I would like one of this because it makes everything easir, also I will have fun everywhere eventhough is not a good time. I like the idea of the game in the metro. I think it would be cool. I would like to see movies in the way to some place. I think everyone is going to have one of this because it helps us in some way, it help us to not infront the machine all day.

I think the greates things is that you can take it anywhere. If you need important information you have it there for you. Also, you can comunicate there whith people, no matter where you are. The limitations are that if people dont have it they wouls steal it. Also, because you can have it anywhere there will be less comunication with friends and family. There will be more problems because there will be less comunication between people.

One or more importnant activities they have. Activities of the thing he invented. Thats what I think Open Source means. I think that the thing he invented has many progrmas. Also, it has many different things that you can do with it, like watch movies or play. Th pros of sharing it is that there will be more prgrmas. But tha bad thing is that is going to get saturated.

Winter Break





Every winter break we do something special. This time my family came to Puerto Vallarta. They got here the 20th of December. We went evry single day to the beach before Christmas. This day came, everyone was prepered 3 hours before. My mom's really close friends came withe their son, I call him brother. We had turkey, salad, spagetti and ice cream. My mom bought a piñata. Then we opened our presents. We had a little amount of presents this time. It didin't matter because I had a great day. The next day "Santa Claus" leaved us presents. I recived a beautiful collar and jeans.






After those great days we went to San Sebastian to have breakfast. We went with the same friends that came for Christmas. We went all the family in two different cars. I went with my cousins my sister and my aunt. After having a delicious breakfast we walked almost everywhere. We also took pictures of us in different parts. WE thought it was going to be really cold, but it was sunny and cool. That same day we came back to Vallarta because my aunt was leaving to Mexico City really Early. The next day She got everything ready to go and she left with my mom in her car. My cousins and my grandmother stayed.








When New Year and my mom's birthday was coming, we got really excited. It was the same day. This time we weren't ready for New Year. We did everything fast. When the time came we ate our 12 grapes. Is a tradition to eat 12 grap
es and make 12 wishes, because there are 12 months. I wrote my wishes and while a ate the grapes I read them. That same day in the morning we prepared a little sorprise for my mom. We put ballons everywhere. We also brought her some breakfast and something to drink. Three days later it was my cousin's birthday. WE went to the beach and it wasn't cold but we leaved early because someone saw a cocodrile. Then we went to eat to The Outback. I didn't eat much. That was my winter break.
