My experience in Flash

Flash has been very challenging this semester. I feel that I have done well in flash. I am positive I've got flash memorized right down to the formulas. I feel that doing the mini game project template tutorial fifty times was a good warm up for all of us. Most of us mastered Flash and we all should feel pretty comfortable about doing Flash.
It was fun doing the Webex conference with Maredith. She took us step by step and was throwing facts in left and right. I really enjoyed Maredith's explanations.
I really got Flash in the first few weeks. It was simple. However I didn't like having to play with the codes and symbols. The best part was probably the feeling of accomplishment when I completed a task/code. The worst part was playing with the codes! Those codes are so confusing!
I love to play games in my free time! the one I enjoy most is Bloxors! It's a really challenging game that has many specific features. I love that game and have gotten to level 16!! Ahh!! The best part of Bloxors is completing the challenging levels and complating with other people!!!

Flash

Flash to me is sometimes very confusing. All the layers, codes, and colors can really be tricky. There all sorts of complicated processes on flash that we have to learn and practice to be able to understand Flash.

I enjoy Flash because challenges are fun to complete and Flash is a skill we have to master to complete our games. Some are as complex as algebra and some are easy as pie. I also like Flash because it keeps me occupied and learning. That way I want to do more of it. Also if keep up with the codes, tiny numbers, letters, or symbols and with the teacher you can have a perfect Flash project.

I dislike flash because sometimes Flash is really really frustrating and from time to time I stop and quit. Although I said I like challeges I dont like 50 at one time. Sometimes I forget to put certain codes and numbers on the saving, exporting, or uploading and that tiny symbol screws up my whole process! I hate Flash sometimes.

Overall I think Flash is a very good hands-on lesson and process and can help you in the future.

Christmas

Christmas is a very joyous and important holiday. It was the day that the Virgin Mary gave life to Jesus. He was born in a barn with animals. Then the three wise men followed a beloved star to come upon a holy baby. Christmas is also important because it is the time for giving and family time. I love Christmas because everyone is always in a good mood and they are all very generous. In the Christmas spirit I am going to go and donate and volunteer at the Austin Police Department Operation Blue Santa. I have never done this but I look forward to this wonderful experience. I like the idea of almost my entire family contributing to this project. My aunt and mother thought of the idea to volunteer with delivering the presents to families in need . I really really really want to do this and I look forward giving back to the community! I am going to have a very generous Christmas.

The second part of my Christmas I am going to spend in Austin and Manor. I plan to spend Christmas Eve at my grandparents house in Manor. There I plan to exchange presents and talk with my family! So fun! Then Christmas Day I will wake up too early and open all my presents! I still can't confirm with you that these are my official plans. I may or may be with my dad for Christmas Eve and receive my presents from family early!! Yay! Merry Christmas guys and Have an awesome Christmas!

Toros Game

The Toros game was AWESOME! I sat next to Karina and Shawn. Irie was there ,too. I had fun up there. Karina and I shared a pizza and lots of laughs. I payed attention sort of. I was laughing alot at the peolpe who were dancing. I had a blast! When Karina went to the restroom i offered to come too and it was hilarious! Why? 'Cause I scared the living dead out of her! I pretended like I left and when she came out I said RAR! And she freaked OUT!! It was so funny!
I thought that things couldn't get better but they did! Karina and I were selected by Dr. Cantu to sit in the front row seat 15! We were so close that they were sweating on us! Gross ,but cool! The coach kept his guard up the whole game! He was cussing and shouting through out the game. Then, ( Yeah some more!) one of the staff told me when the game was at 1:30 seconds I was to go to the table to recieve a ball and shirt! I wa named FAN OF THE GAME!!!!! AWESOME RIGHT?! I got to meet number 44 Dwayne Jones! HE was like super duper tall! It was so cool! He signed his shirt which read PLAYER OF THE DAY and he gave it to me! We took a picture and it was AWESOME!!!! I had a blast at the game and I thank Dr. Cantu and all her work! Thank YOU!

On November 23, 2009 2 visitors came and discussed our game topics, and formats. First, we made up our own game and used the topic Health and more specifically Lung Cancer. We discussed how are game would be set-up. We said that the game would include something like a smoking monster and a character would be shooting cures/antidotes back at the monster. (Cure/Antidote being stop smoking gum, patches, water, exercise, and all things to avoid smoking)
Finally we discussed our own game plans with Ms. Rachel, Ms. Meredith, and Ms. Shannon. Although we could not physically see Ms. Shannon and Ms. Meredith we could hear them. We contacted them through phone and they listened to our conversations. Almost like eaves-dropping! Just Kidding! And then accidentally I hung up because I lifted the phone and pressed the button and it went uuuu....! Ha ha I was laughing and I felt ashamed but then I was fine! Mrs. Ross-Miller asked if I wanted to present. Well actually she told me I was going to present! And as I was presenting Ms. Shannon and Ms. Meredith I was heading in the right direction and she gave me some good suggestions! Then I listened to the other's presentation and gave good critique and suggestions.

This week I was finishing up my Game Prep Questions. I learned how to make text boxes, change color and font. I leasrned how to type and write in Flash. This week was alittle complex because we had to type our Questin 1-7 in Flash. I didn't like doing Flash over and over because when there no carrot or bunny and without them there's no fun! I mean come on who wants to write about their game! I want to get to the desighning! Although I guess planing ahead is good.
My excitment about my game probably would be desighing the game and getting to see my work somewhere! I mean that would be AWESOME! I'm not a big gamer ,but creating a game would be AWESOME!!!!! I mean if I moved to a different school (which I won't) I would be ahead of every body!

Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving I am either going to with my dad to celebrate with them or I am with my mom. I love going with my mom and it is going to be the 2nd year I have been with my mom's family or it will be the 1st year I am with my dad. If I go with my dad I will be with my mom for Christmas and if I go with my mom I will be with my dad for Christmas with my dad. I don't really care which parent I go with just as long as I'm with family. Yay! I'm really happy about spending time with both parents because I love them both equally no matter what I do! And they love me no matter what I do! Yay!

Flash

This week in Globaloria our main focus is on Flash and action script. We are learning how to make moving objects, layers, adding color, and sound. I learn so much in Globaloria that is helpful at home or at any computer. Sometimes it can be a bit boring and frustrating! I mean I love it and all but who in their right mind make us watch a 20 minute instructional video!!!!! UGH!!! Anyway this is what happened!
First, we watched that dumb 20 minute instructional video on flash. Second, we went to flash and we made this characters and then we made them ''symbols.'' During that I got totally lost in assisting others! I was on the edge of a tantrum, but then Karina was keeping me updated! She helped me and I helped her. Overall I had a lot of fun doing action script.
I learned how to add animation, and motion. I learned how to go crazy in 10 minutes! I learned how to delete pictures.
I had a lot of fun doing this assignment and look forward to further challenges! Thank You for all you do Mrs. Ross-Miller!!!

Red Ribbon Week! I'm Drug Free!!!

"Red Ribbon week" is celebrating staying drug free and helping other stay and be drug free. As students we must pledge to be drug free and help fellow people drug free. We need to confront those who choose to do and sell drugs and warn them of the harmful things drugs can do to them physically and emotionally. To Me staying drug free is more important than my cat Angel!! Drugs can play an important or a small role in your life. Staying drug free is important because it can really effect day-to-day life.

My thoughts about Enrique Camarena..... Brave..... Heroic..... Changer..... Guardian Angel. He was all of these things. He was wiling to throw himself out into the open dangerous world just to stop people from further going with the drug process. He had three children and I'm pretty sure they lost a load when their father's body was recovered. He had won several awards for busting some major drug dealers. And the small ones he caught could of turned into a major corporation ,but he stopped it! He did the work! He made people realize how important stopping these kinds of people was.
