My Website

I am thinking of doing a website on candy because I love the way candy looks, especially when it's all rapped up in its rapper. For the logo I might do a swirly candy as the background and something else on  the front but I don't know what yet. Ashley is also doing a candy website so I might do mine on horses because they're one of my favorite animals.

How I'm doing in this class

It's been ok so far. I'm a little bit behind on one of the projects but not by much. I really like the picture project I did and my name plate. I'm also really excited that I actually learned how to post videos! The only thing that didn't work out for me is the spacing between my pictures. They're all perfect except for the last one that is way lower than all the rest. All in all it has been pretty good.

Name Plate

I chose Berlin Sans FB as my font and made it size 59 because it makes the letters really stand out. The background I picked was called Folds and it looks like little bubbles. I chose a turquoise colour and tinted it so that it was a mixture of purple and blue. One of the filters I chose was the Hue/Saturation and I saturated it to 100%. Sharpen More was a filter that I used and I sharpened it to 108. I used the Glow filter to make a pink glow around my name.

10 Favorite Pictures

Landscape:This is a picture of the hills behind the school and a seagull flying in front of them. This picture is so good because the seagull is so clear and it makes the picture a lot more interesting then if it was just the hills.


Portrait:This is a picture of my friend Stephanie and me. It's a good picture because usually portraits are taken from directly in front of the people, not from above.






Something growing in an environment it shouldn't be able to (not planted):This is some sort of vine growing on a barbed wire fence. The reason it's so cool is because normally if you just looked at the whole vine from a distance it would look ugly growing on barbed wire but because it is a close up, taken of just a small portion of the vine, it is very intriguing.




Silhouette:This is a picture of Ashley, Stephanie and me. We are behind the sun so our shadows are visible and that is what makes the picture so neat.







Something man made hidden, lost, or discarded in nature:This is a photo of a Tim Horton's coffee cup sitting in a tree. It is obviously not supposed to be there but people are careless sometimes.











Picture emphasizing one specific colour:This is a picture of a fire alarm and what's cool about it is that not only the alarm is red but also the bricks in the background.







Texture:This is a photo taken of running water. I like it because the texture of the water running down is quite clear.









Picture taken from exaggerated angle:This is the lock on a locker. Usually someone would see their lock face on but this shows it up and to the side, an angle that a person can't usually see.






Reflection:This is a fun picture of Ashley and me in front of the glass by the school doors. The photo shows a clear reflection of us on the glass.

Close-up:This is a close up picture of white berries that I took. I love it because the berries look like little, mini marshmallows!

Sherlock Holmes - Official Trailer [HD]

Crevier, Steve. George Elliot Secondary School Website: Home of the Coyotes. [Online] http://www3.ges.sd23.bc.ca/, 9/13/10

I picked this website because it is a website that everyone knows pretty well.

First Week at School

The first week of school is always exciting but I know I'll be bored of it by next week. I love seeing all my friends for the first time since the last school year. I got all the courses I wanted and there's lots of fun people in them. My younger sister and cousin are at this school now so it was fun to see what classes they were in and scare them about the teachers they got. I was really mad about my locker situation this year though. It's way down at the end of the school by the wood room, it's a bottom locker and the lock in it is so hard to turn. The day I got it I went to my sister and told her I would most likely be using her locker most of the time and she didn't really care.

My Lame Weekend

My weekend was not that interesting. On Saturday I reffed a couple soccer games. Then on Sunday I went to church and did some homework.
