Final Blog

This year has gone by so quickly. I can believe that it is almost over though, I have put countless hours into projects, homework, tests and presentations. Now that this school year is coming to an end, it is the appropriate time for me to reflect on the project I had the school year to do... the twenty percent project. I did not have too much success in this project. I changed my idea after the first semester to a completely different idea. That is when my other blog came in. I really hope that people who read my blog we touched by the things I wrote. I really put in time writing on my other blog and taking pictures for it. It is just that not many people saw what I wrote because it was not really publicized, I posted a link on Facebook but never really told people to view it. That was where I could have improved. Writing the blogs on my other blog helped me cope with some of my personal problems, and I do not regret it. So take the time to check out what I did, here is the link http://lookingattheglasshalffull.blogspot.com/
Peace out

Week 12

Three day weekend! In other words, three days to do homework. Today is tryouts for colorguard and I am pretty excited to see our incoming freshmen. After tryouts my two best friends and I are getting In-and-Out from a friend. We are then going to go to my house to watch movies. But the rest of my weekend will consist of taking pictures for a bonsi convention, so I can earn money and homework. I plan on finishing my presentation on Monday and practice saying it so I have confidence to present, when the time comes. I think my project is okay, but I just wanted to make a bigger change and get some feed back on my photos. Last week I posted on my other blog and it felt good to have posted it. This week is our second to last blog and then summer.
I hope my presentation goes well, and isn't a bumpy road for me :D (it is a joke, and I took this picture in January)

Week 11

Hey guys! Guess what is in two weeks... we are presenting our twenty percent project. Dun Dun Duuunnn! To be honest I am quite excited, although nobody has commented on my blogs and said things like, "thanks, that helped my day!" I still think I was able to help some people. My views from my blog have increased, which I am very happy about and I have still been posting. I am going to use a prezi for my presentation and keep things simple. I plan to map out what i am going to say, and rehearse it plenty of times. I will start creating my presentation tonight or tomorrow so I have enough time to prepare. On Sunday it was mothers day, so my dad and I went to the beach to release balloons in her honor. It was a tough weekend, but I am glad I got a chance to think about me mom. I am planning to post something about mothers day on my other blog today.

Week 10

Our twenty percent projects are due along with a presentation in three weeks from today.  I do not know how I helped people because nobody has told me that I have helped them. I need to get more page views and plan to create a new instagram account because nobody really reads blogs, and instagram is all about pictures which helps me out a lot. I plan to make the account really soon, so I have more time to post things and gain followers. I have already posted pictures that have the same thing on my blog, on my personal account, so I am not sure if I want to create another account on instagram. Now that I think of it, I will just post some of the pictures that are on my blog, and see the reactions of my friends. Here is a picture I recently posted on instagram and will post on my blog.

Week 9

As I mentioned in my last blog, my sister's due date for her baby was on Easter, April twentieth. It turns out that my sister actually had her baby that day! My dad and  I drove five hours to the area where my sister and her husband live to visit the baby in the hospital. We stayed overnight on Sunday and left Monday evening around six. Because I was at the hospital I was not able to make it back in time for school on Monday. When I returned I had a lot of make up work to do. As you can tell, this week has been pretty busy for me. I only took pictures of my niece and family at the hospital, I did not have time to take pictures of anything else. However, I do plan on taking more photos this week to develop more ideas for my blog.

Week 8-


Happy soon to be Easter! On that note, my sister's due date for her and her husbands baby is in two days (Easter), and I am extremely excited to be an aunt. Just last weekend my team and I just finished our season for the rest of the school year and are now focusing on tryouts and field season. I know have more free time to focus on photography. I am really interested in photojournalism  now that I have been posting on my other blog. I have been pretty productive with writing on my other blog. I have posted twice in the past eleven days. It feels good to be productive. Now I am focused on being more productive and posting on the other blog more often.
Two weeks ago I had the opportunity to watch General Conference for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I listened to many amazing talks, and found some more topics for me to blog about on my other blog, here is my next idea...

Week 7 - VEGAS WEEK!

Well, first things first! Vegas is this weekend! The guard is leaving on Friday during sixth period and we are leaving Vegas Sunday afternoon. I am excited to spend the beginning of Spring break with my friends in Vegas. I will take a picture and post it on here.
I am back from the trip, and this is the view that my roommates and I had from our hotel room. We stayed in Circus Circus. Our varsity guard also got first place! It was an amazing feeling to have all our hard work pay off. It made our stay in Vegas a very memorable experience, and we made so many memories that I will never forget. That is what I love about photos, they capture so many feeling and emotions in just one photo. Well that is it for this past week, now I am going to enjoy the rest of my spring break!
