I like these pictures because they remind me of olden times way before my times. When I look at them it screams Haunted like when I watch ghost hunters.

hatching stippling

Artist statement: This stippling/hatching project was fun and exiting. It was definitely not the easiest thing but I had fun doing it because it was something very knew to me. This is something I would definitely like to do again. Stippling is a technique using Various amounts of dots in a pattern or randomly. Hatching is another technique using lines in a random fashion. I chose these people as my hero and villain because Alice in wonderland is one of my favorite movies it was so color full and 3D. I thought it would be a good choice since they came from something I enjoyed.

Evelyn Glennie

What is something that struck you about the video of Evelyn Glennie?

This struck me because she was so good at teaching us how to listen and play instruments. That it was so hard to believe that she couldn't hear at all. It was amazing to me that she could teach some one how to listen without being able to listen herself.

What did you notice?

I noticed how smooth her hands moved when she played the Marimba and how cool and mellow it sound and made me feel.

What did you enjoy about her performance?

Something I enjoyed about her performance was when she played the Marimba on the top row because it made me think of the movie Mulan.

What is something you will remember about the performance?

Something i will remember about the performance was how she tought how to play the drum only because my little brother loves the drums and i have to listen to them all day and night so that's something that really stood out

Something that really struck me about the Point Loma farmers market was that they sold more then just food. I have never been to a farmers market and I thought it was just locally grown thing from locally farmer bt they had nice cute Little sun dresses,big beautiful hats,and Tupperware ext.There was allot of things to choose from even food from different countries it was amazing I had a sample of almost everything there:-). My mother bought me food from Africa and bought herself a big pear that looked really good and juicy. Something I thought that was very expensive was the eggs 12 eggs for 8 bucks when u can go to the store and get 24 for the same price.I differently would love to come to farmers markets more often ,and I'm happy we had this project to open my eyes a Little bit about the things I eat and be more aware that I have more options open to me.

Farmer

Today I talked about food with my grandma we had a really good conversation about if buying organic food was better then buying food from a farmers market that uses pesticides. I said that i would rather buy food from a farmers market that uses pesticides then organic grown all the way around the country See thought differently just because it was ORGANIC. Allot of people buy organic food but don't realize were they are coming from and all the other pollution it does use to get to your house so i think its better to eat local any day.I can apply this to the real world because i think people should be aware of the things other people do to thier food and how we should change our eating habbits.
I strongly agree to the concepts because they have evadence backing up what they say and not just pulling stuff out of the hat. The people that declinde intervives make me think how that makes them look bad like they have somthing to hide about there company.

dialectic journal

It was only after several months that I began to notice that her exitment was fading and continued to fade month after month and year after year.

This quote stood out to me because I could relate to what he means when Ishmael said this. I felt the same when I was young I was so exited to go to school and i begged my mom to let me go because it seemed like a cool place to go with new toys and shiny stuff that I wanted so bad, but my mom always saying I was to young but finally when that day came.School School School that all I could do and I liked it for the first year or two but then I couldn't stand the place and wished for a day were we had no school. I was crushed when my mom told me I had 10 more years of going to school. But when I realized it I would have no friends if I didn't go to school because there would be absolutely nothing to do with our life and we would all be stupid because EDUCATION is key!

This is our Zine

Space Aviation

Have you ever saw the movie the KNOWING well if so one thing that freaked me out was the super burst were the sun made this huge burst that went way farther then scientist expected and SIZZELD earth to crisp.
The bigg deal for this topic if how would we know if that was to happen and the really scary thing is that we couldnt do anything to stop it from happing and we would all die the very scary thought that i really dont wana think it .
If it gets really hot and keeps exelerating then we know somthing is wrong and there iz nothing we can do unless we all go to the moon:-)
The obsticle in the way of making this succesful would be there wouldnt be enough room for every body to go to space unless we got a really cool space shuttle like the movie wali.

technology

The topic i will be focusing on is technology mainly on cellphones and how they affect the world today lets start with TEXTING .I feel this years generation will have the hardest time spelling only because we spend so much time using text language every day we tent to write this way on homework and important documents.
Cell PHONES are very com an and almost every one has one its almost like we cant live or function without them most of us have our e-mails set up on them and our music to were we need these on at all times and we need them in our pockets just to feel the comfort of having it there.
I came across a video on youtube on how when your phone rings and your head is by it is this what its doing to you????http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJlv9HHJyAo&feature=related

If watch this it makes me think twice about putting my phone on that night stand
I think in 2012 we will the most craziest phones you have ever saw (as if we haven't already)
I don't think there are any obstacles except for how bad the economy is and people might not buy the really cool phone that are very expensive

prject description

The blue prints- Jadon and I made the blue prints which consisted of how we made our boat and how big it was

Description- Jadon, Mitch, Briana and I all worked really hard on our boat for the Kushiets which we thought would have helped them allot more with trading. MAking the boat we had to consider arcamedias principle to make sure that it would float propley with out sinking because of course we had the biggest boat out of every one

Process- The process of making our boat was to make sure we had all the right measurements to make our boat the same size meaning we needed to use a ruler and power tools. the power tool part was really fun to me because it was the first time ive ever done somthing like that.we hade to caulk all the whole so the water wouldnt get into the boat and sink. Another step was to make our sail which wasnt as hard as I thought
