final project
wow its been a while.....well we played more interactive games and finally did our final project...I love what we did....our concept of stalking is a really questionable one....we set up motion sensors that connected to a sound track of sketchy noises...Lauren and i had probs with our sensor but we fixed it....it was fun to go exploring the space we choose....its kind of big but we worked with it...it was awsome to find things to add that we didnt have to pay for...the place we picked had some ladders that were fun to climb i was think this morning at breakfast that it would be fun to have a playground on campus...and the ladders fulfilled my dream of a little play time...haha any way tommorow is the last day off class...i am sad that its over i learned alot and i never felt stressed with work like my friends did durring J term i felt challenged but not over whelmed which is a great feeling....i hope to take more classes like this in the next few years...peace...more will be added to the blog wen i find stuff to talk about haha

YAY

Choose My own Adventure Book
I had an assignment to read a choose my own adventure book. the name of mine was "house of danger" i was a dective who recived a phone call that cuts out.... i get the adress of the call and then i go up to the house first i solved the case my self which happened to be a counterfitting money case... but by picking a differnt option to call some of my friends and go with them up to the house i was killed off...on my third attempt i waited with my firends for the cheif of police and we caught the crooks again.... it was a really weird and cool thing to have many different endings for the same story. It made me feel like i was reading a bunch of stories..it was really great and i totaly recogmend that people try books like it...

second class
hey so the second day of class went really well...coffee time was spent with a conversation about why we as a generation mostly watch reality tv and why it is better to use facebook instead of email. now i go on facebook about 4 times a day maybe more...it connects us to everything...we dont hav to go searching for what were looking for that information comes to us....haha some one in my class said it was a nicer form of "stalking" true but still facebook and myspace are these new ways of connecting friends, family, co workes ect. any way the type of interactions on those cites is becoming endless.... you can poke people.... play games....have a fake baby with someone...some really weird shit.... but we use facebook and myspace not just as parts of thw web but as a part of a daily ritual i guess..... when i go on facebook and see that my friend has just done something cool and put pix up i want to know more so i with a click of a button can find out... its as easy as that....some might call it lazyness but i think that since i might not be near my friend from say high school this is what keeps us all togather.... it is THE link..... my experience with blogging how ever is new...but i like it...it feels like a diary or something i can just shoot off thought haha well im done for now.... till next class i gues.... : )
