2nd week of September

September  10th

Today in class we took some notes, and learned to diagram a sentence! Fun? Nope!

Yeah, not fun... On any level. It is confusing and to tell the truth, quite annoying.

Now, as you can tell. I have very strong views on this particular subject this week.

Yep, Don't like it, but now it is putting a damper on my mood. So let's change the subject, shall we?
Our blogs! Since we still are blogging.

Ms. Payseur decided since we ended up having short classes last Friday, that we would finish our blogs today, but since I had finished mine last Thursday, I really had nothing to do until we moved on.

As we have been doing, we commented and posted constructive criticism on our partners blogs.

Do you remember how I spoke about my post, sounding like a flame?
I know for a fact,hat mine did not this time. Even, if it did, I had rights to flame that post. For one: it had a paragraph long run-on sentence.

This is horrid! What are you? A bloody child? Was what my first reaction had been.(yes, that is my British typing accent.)

I mean, overall it wasn't that awful. I just just quite curious, on how some of my readers reactions would be. If I were to type in a British accent; But to return on topic, mainly it's just that it was not as, awful as most have been, but it was still quite lengthy.

Another thing, is that my partner never subscribed to my blog. (as far as my knowledge goes)

September 11th

Now, I was absent for Ms. Payseur's class today, so I can at least tell you, what I had done up to that point.

So my school day (since you all must be so interested) began around 8:15, and ended half-way through second period.

So my first period class was my college class, and we did not do much.

What we did consisted of the following: Reviewing our grades; Since some of us have yet to know others names, we did a little introduction.

 Which stated our interests and a few things that we are looking forward to, and that's about it for that class.

Now my next class History; Man, that sure was something. Honestly I'm just surprised that I had not fallen asleep during it.
We spent as far as I know, the entire time watching a video on nine/eleven, and taking notes on it.

But then right when it started to gain my interest. (Note my sarcasm)
I had to leave... Dang, You won't believe how 'disappointed I was'.

There you now know what I had done on nine/eleven.

Since, this is relatively short. I believe I should tell you about my writing, since it is a big part of my life.

As you all probably know, I do write as a hobby, and I have recently came across a *plotbunny that refuses to leave my mind.

This happens to be a fan fiction regarding the Japanese anime and manga Death Note.

A photo of  L from the anime/manga Death Note, available at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/arenarena/4590518774/ 
photo was published online: May 9th, 2010.





That concludes the section for nine/eleven.

*- Plotbunny- A plotbunny is what writers online, call ideas that they have, that are distracting from works that they are already writing. 

 September 12th-13th

Today, we ventured into the wonderful world of animoto!

Yes, animoto. I can honestly say that it was pretty fun!
We, made a video about online citizenship, which you know is a pretty big deal.






See? That above is my wonderful video; Don't you believe that it is quite amazing?

Now do you remember how I hated on Prezi? Well, this is much easier to use.

The only other thing that we did, was our current event. Which as it was last week, is available on this blog in the archives.

That concludes what happened, within the time span of two days.

September 14th

Since, I have been reluctant to give a summery of what my Friday's have been like, I believe it would be interesting to at least do it once.

So we did something different in our first period class; Which was not a college class today, and that was explore the Gaston College Campus Library. If you would like to know more about it, just click the hyperlink.

Since the rest of my day was relatively normal, and most of what we had learned was of minor importance.

Until next week.

Thursday Current Events!

 September 9th 2012


1. Malware viruses attacking computers.

2. Malware attacks on the rise.

3.CNN

4. This article is about, how malware and viruses are now on a rampage. Targeting even the MACs!!!!! They are targeting everything! Stealing debit card information, stealing phone usernames and passwords for a ransom! The whole nine-yards.

5. Now for one, I must say that this is creative. All of the hackers out there have really stepped up their games. Now, I’m not saying that I agree with what they are doing. Because I don’t but still, hacking into your phone to steal your information and hold it for ransom? That’s pretty creative. You’ve got to admit. But I honestly do not like hackers, they are evil little trolls that prowl the internet. Don’t you say that they are not, because you know they are, and now my parents were thinking about getting my an Android phone.... look, now that hackers decided that it would be entertaining to hack them. I might end up being stuck with my dinosaur of a phone for awhile now.

6. This event impacts the world in so many ways that it is ridiculous. So just about everyone in the world, who has internet connection is at risk for a malware virus now, and apparently if you use a debit card to purchase something. Yeah, you might lose those little digits that are the wall between your money and a world of hackers. So yeah, No one is safe... But maybe the hackers. Or there could be the event in which the hackers betray each other, and hack their friends. Therefore this event seriously impacts the world in ways I’m not even going to describe. Because for one, No one will finish reading this...
