What I hope to learn.

What I hope to learn in this next 9 weeks is how to type faster, even though I already type fast. I would like to learn more about how to do power points real fancy, and how to use word document more professional.

Reaction/Discussion Question

In the clip I feel that the store clerk was discriminating the young teenager about his skin color, but the other person was an elder lady who was caucasion and he didn't watch her at all which is wrong. People shouldn't judge someone by there skin tone or the way they dress or even look. Cause, in the end of the clip it was the opposite of what the clerk thought would've happened. Instead of the young boy stealing anything the elder lady did it, so in the end nobody should discriminate specially if you don't the person.

Discussion Question - How did you feel about this clip?

First Nine Weeks.

In the first nine weeks of school I been doing pretty good except in Gym and Alegbra 2; I could've done much better but I been missing a lot of school from being sick and from allergies. Other than that most of my classes I have a B or C in. So, for the first nine weeks of school I been doing alright but not the best. My next nine weeks I'm gonna be in school a lot more and stay on task to keep my grades on the right track and pass my Junior year to become a Senior and graduate. (:

Most Used Sites

      Facebook.com  

• I like that the site let's you make statuses, write your friends, make a family, show your relationship, also that you can hide some things from people but not all.
• I use this site to talk to my friends that I barely see or just to get a hold of them, also to talk to my family that lives in a different state.
• Some positive things about Facebook is that you can post on peoples wall, or write them in a private message, block people you don't want anything to do with, and show things you want to show.
• Some negative things about Facebook is you can't hide everything that you don't want people to see, it causes a lot of drama because of peoples statuses.
• Twitter is a competitor against Facebook, and I use Facebook more because it's not as difficult as Twitter and you can do a lot more. Also, Twitter is nothing but tweeting like mostly statuses, and on Facebook you can do statuses, post pictures, write in an I.M and etc.
• A couple of changes I would make to Facebook is more privacy on it, and you can have music on your page, or decorate your own background. Also, you can have moving pictures rather than just regular.

Twitter.com

• I like that this site is all tweeting which basically means you're just posting statuses about things you're doing, thinking, like, and more.
• I use this site for posting things about the way I feel and think about things.
• Some positive things about this site is that it don't cause any type of drama at all.
• Some negative things about this site is you don't really get fun out of it, it's just posting statuses, and tweeting and following other people.
• Tumblr would be a competitor to Twitter, but I use twitter more because reblogging pictures is doing too much although you would find some interesting pictures. Also I use Twitter more because it's an interesting site.
• I would change a couple of things, which would be having a relationship status, family, picture blogging, and more.

Footlocker.com

• I like that this site shows you all the new shoes coming out, and what they have, also that you can order them just from online.
• I use this site for buying shoes, viewing the shoes before I go to the mall to buy them, and seeing what's new in the store.
• The positive things about this website is that you can see the shoes they got in, or are bringing in. You can also see what's for clearance, and the colors or sizes they have left.
• Some negatives about this website is you're actually just looking at a picture of the shoe when it's really better to see it in person so you can get a better view and you can actually try it on before buying it.
• Finishline.com is a competitive website to Footlocker.com because it's basically the same but they sell more shoes than Footlocker and Finishline may have lower prices on the same shoe. But I use Footlocker because it has the shoes I like more at there store.
• The changes I would make for this website is how you search for them because the website is kind of confusing, I would basically make it more clear and understanding.

Google.com

• Mostly I like that Google shows you what you want to see, they show you pictures, meaning of things, and even answers to questions off your homework.
• I use the site for pictures of famous people, houses I like, backgrounds, and to look up things I need to understand.
• Some positive things about this website is that it gives you answers to everything you ask about.
• Some negatives about this website is not all the answers on google is correct, people are smart enough to make there own website and say there meaning they think it is.
• A competitor to Google.com is Ask.com but I use Google more because it works way better, Ask.com is a website that you really just ask questions you want to know. But Google you can look up pictures and stuff.
• The things I would change about this website is the settings of it, and make it more spaced out. Mostly, I'd make it like the old Google because the new one with the way the pictures are is annoying.

Picnik.com

• I like most about this site that you can edit your pictures how you want.
• I use this site to edit pictures that I want to edit, or make a picture on my own.
• Some positive things about this site is that you can edit all the pictures you want, and how you want.
• Some negative things is that you can't use all the edits, because you have to buy them or be signed up to it.
• A competitor to this site is photobucket.com but I use picnik.com more because it's easier to use and way better.
• The changes I would make to this website is the costing of some of the edits, I'd make it all free and better to use.
