Reflective Audacity

Doing audacity, there were a lot of challenges. The major one was time. I think we had very little time to do everything. I did the last 45 seconds before class. Another challenging part was making the sounds mix together till it sounded good. If I could change something I would chage everything because I did it all lame because I did it very quickly. Also, I would change my sounds. I didn't know there were already made up sounds. I think I didn't do a good work because it didn't sounded good. At least I completed the task and hand it in at time :)

Finished Mash-up

My mash-up ended up pretty well. The mixture of the two songs have the same rythm and sounds great. The special effects Mr.Mark showed us, helped me a lot. I used some of the effects he showed me and with the others I just experimented. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SgM3r8xKfGE is the song Club Can´t Even Handle Me ft David Guetta by Flo Rida. I used this song because it has a very good rythm and its entertaining. I also used http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYC2FUutdKA which is My Fist Kiss ft Ke$ha by 3OH!3. I started with this song because its fun. As you can see, my mash-up was very easy to do!

Mash-up

A mash-up is a song that has parts of other songs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_4pOg_a45s&feature=related and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fxo0PXucIQ&feature=fvst are some mash-ups I really like. A rythm at the back of the song, one main song makes a good mash-up. Very little songs and not very well mixed would make a very bad mash-up. http:/7www.wonderhowto.com/how-to-make-mashup-with-audacity-and-mixmesiter-284212/ this page gives some good tips for improving your mash-up. Mash-up artist are true musicians even though they don´t make music because they know how to put it together and they also put effort in creating the music even though the songs aren´t his.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNzrwh2Z2hQ&feature=related DJ Earworm is one I´ve listen too and I think he is great! As you can see, mash-ups are great songs and can make people very famous.

Artifacts

The process that I went through was very diffucult. First, I had to make the eyes look bubblely. It was hard because if I put too much opacity the eye would completely dissapear. One thing that I like is that it was easy to cut the cheetah. Another thing that I like is that the cheetahs pose and face is perfect for my project. Two things that I dislike is that the black spots of the cheetah are very clear. The other one is that, the hair is very clear too and it makes it look not vey realistic. If I could change my future artifact I would only make it look more watery and hide the very clear black spots and hair.


Renata's artifact for the future is a great idea. I like that its very original and no one from the class repeated it. I also like that It looks very challenging since she had to cut turtle shelfs and put them around the car. In this photoshop I see that she put the car in a sea background. Im impressed because the background and the car look perfect together. I would like to learn how to cut things and put them in other things. The way they fit perfectly on the other things that its attached to. It also looks great since the car is on top of the rocks like if its laying on them.

I would totally like this artifact. This would help alot in the future in the way that you can travel underwater. You can get faster to your destination. Not only that but you get to see the underworld. I think they will do this underwater because its a very good idea. If it was available I would buy it because its awesome! If I had the money I would buy two. As you can see, I think this artifact will be constructed in the future and it will be very efficient.

Water Animals is a very interesting and inportant artifact for the future. I learned to turn things to look watery. Not only that but, I also learned to put pictures in front of other making them look realistic. In the future, if this exist, It would work for watering the plants. The animals would be walking in the garden while watering the plants without noticing. Also, they could be pets. They wouldn't be feed. Also, it could make the room very humid. The animal will be able to swim and if a flood comes, it wouldn't drown. As you can see, water animals could be very useful in the future.

Water Animal

I chose to make water animals. I chose this because its an easy option and its also challenging. I've never done this before. I think is going to turn out well because I'm good and following directions. Water animal can be useful in the future in the way that they can give water to plants by laying on the garden. You don't have to worry about watering them. Not only that but, they can also be pets. They don't eat,poo,pee,make noise, and smell. As you can see, making water animal is a complicated thing to do, but with effort its going to turn out good :)

Family Gathering and Family Tree

Five years ago all my family gathered for Christmas. It was the best Christmas ever because my parents gave me my first cellphone. We all celebrated with fireworks and gifts. Every family made a different food. It was super cool because my dad's family part is HUGE. We stayed up late, everyone left like at 5:00am. Since the reunion was in my house, me and my cousins made a sleepover. I remember this reunion because my cousin fell to the pool because she got scared of some fireworks and the mother bathed her with dog shampoo!

Family Tree!

The most challenging part of my family tree was to get the pictures from all my family members. I got some from facebook and the other pictures from home. I took a picture with my camera and brought my memory and insert it in the computer. I wouldn't change nothing about my final product. I put on all my effort in it and accomplished all the tasks and what was required. I had a hard time making it again because the last one I had erased and I was almost finished. I liked that it deleted because this family tree came up to be even better. As you can see, making my family tree was easy, except for the pictures.

Family Tree Frames

I chose two different frames for my family tree. The frames divide my family's genders. The flower frame is for the females .I chose the flower frame because is beautiful and very easy to put the peoples head on. The plant frame is for the guys. I chose it because they are the plants and the girls are the flower. Its a beautiful conbination. Not only that but most of the mens favorite color is green. As you can see, those are the reasons why I chose those frames.

(It wont let me add an image)

Family Tree

Tree

I chose this tree because it looks like a tree that my grandma had. The family use to sit around it and chill.

Joy

This summer I did lots of fun things. First of all, I get to Guadalajara and Tapalpa. In Guadalajara I got to go shopping everyday and spend time with my family. Not only that but I went to "Trompo Magico" and the Zoo! When we were in Tapalpa, I got to ride a little car and a motorcycle. The weather was wonderful. It was coldish and humid. We stayed 3 days and two nights. I have to say that Tapalpa is one of my favorite places! As you can see, I had fun this summer with my family.



One thing that I would like to do for my self is try to keep a sertain amount of time in facebook. It always distracts me from doing homework or chores at home. It takes away my time, and I always regret it. If I log on to facebook I will stay like 4 hours and that's just wrong! I'd rather spend time with my family. Go out with friends or swim at the pool. Sometimes I get bad grades in my homework because of Facebook. It distracts me and I don't put attention to what I'm reading.I also get messed up when I write. Finally, avoiding Facebook is one thing what I would like to do for my self.





A part of me that makes me very special is that I always help people. I help them no matter what. When my friends have problems in school, at home with other friends or even their family they always talk to me. I find the way to make them look at the good side of the situation. And I also helpthem resolve their problem. Sometimes I even give up things just to help them and feel like they're not alone. I listen to people and I try to give good advice. I think it is lovely when poeple thankyou, it just feels good to have the opportunity to help other people. Lastly, being helpful makes me really special, and it also makes me feel GREAT!

Map Test Reflection

Last week we took Map Testing. My feelings haven't changed at all. I still think its boring and important. This week was fast, on the fall tests in October it seemed like FOREVER. In the progress I would change the time we start the typing test because it takes away time of our recess. It really sucks because sometimes we don't have time to eat or do homework. Im very happy with my results. I though I did a very bad job, but at the end, I passed the 3 tests! :)

Presentation

Today, in computer class I present my powerpoint presentation to my group. Now that I've seen others presentation I would change many things. I only talk about teachers and how they are. If I could add more informatio I would write more about the school, and rules. Also, put pictures and making more interesting. We already have an idea of how we are going to put the presentations together to make it excelent. It will give a very good idea for the sixth graders of how seventh grade is and all the rules. As you can see, I would change some things in my presentation to make it better.

PowerPoint Disaster

Once, in our class we had to make a book talk. Someone in our class did a powerpoint presentation and it hurt his grade. The powerpoint was confusing. The words were black with a dark blue background. The teacher and the students had a very hard time trying to read. Also, the pictures were stretched out and blurry. There were no movements. It was super boring. I wanted to sleep in the middle of the presentation. Finally, the "person" had a very low grade because of the powerpoint presentation.

Earth Day Peer Evaluations

I've learned many things while doing the Earth Day Peer Evaluations. I evaluate a 8th grade group. They did a very good job. The singing and the rhythm was amazing, the photos were chosen with care. On the other hand, they only had animal photos, which wasn't very interesting. Also, I graded an12th grade group. The voice wasn't clear. They also, had a lot of animal photos. It was kinda boring. All in all, I graded two groups for the Earth Day Competition.

My name is Cuetlaxochitl but you can call me Cuetalaxochitlitzmilmacuilxochitlameyal . I'm 67 years old. I like to go swimming with my best friend Auchachtly. He is a great pet. My favorite food are onions and ketchup. I was born in PuebloCielitoLindoDeContrabando, but I was raised in PorqueCantandoSeAlegra. My favorite color is poop brown. I like to date guys younger than me. People call me Happy Mappy because Im always happy. I have one son. His name is Machupichu De La Caldera Metsicana. My hobby is to jump around my house and pull my sons hair. I like to match all my cloth with different colors and styles. I considered myself a really fashion person. I have a unique style. I used to date Nick Jonas from the Jonas brothers,whose brothers are Joe and Kevin JONAS, I think that's too obvious, but the relationship didn't work because private and non-appropriate things to say. Since then , I'am in search of a new kid who really respects me for who I am.

On the other hand, people think Iam too old to be doing those things but thats what normal people of my age do. Also, I like to smoke when I have nothing to do, outside of my house or Brad Pitt's house, although sometimes Angelina gets a little angry.

Finally, I hope you enjoyed my biography. Please comment and tell me what do you think about me. Thanks!

8th Rotoball

The 8th grade video was amazing! My favorite part was laura's movement drawing thing. Some drawings were difficult to guess. Also, It was kinda confusing but still, it was wonderful. Rodrigo specially did a GREAT job!! The music made the video be fun and interesting. I watch it like 5 times trying to guess who was who. Not only that, but each then had creative ideas. All in all, the video was very fun to watch.

One day a college student name Peter was danicing around his house. Mary his grilfriend came over and joined him. When they were exausted they both decided to watch a movie. In the middle of the movie, Mary wanted to go to the bathroom and accidently steped on Peter's laptop. She didnt notice and keept walking. When the movie finished Peter drove Mary to her house.


Next day, Peter was drawing a train in a crumpled paper, and realized his laptop was on the floor with a footprint. He asked his mom and dad if they steped on it. They both said no. Not only that but he asked his both sisters. They said no too. Peter was very sad and confused. He asked Mary and she said no, even though it was her.


That night, Mary felt bad. She wanted to tell Peter the truth. In the morning, she decided to tell him she steped on his laptop. When she arrived to school, she found out he wasn't there. She went to look for him in his house but he couldnt find him there. When she called him, Peter said he was at the store. He was buying a new laptop.

Technology

While I was watching the video, I was very impressed. I want one of those because it would make my life way much easier. Also, I think that people in the future are going to use it a lot. Its going to make the people's life easier but at the same time its going to perjudice them. This is because they wont have time for friends and fun only for technology. Not only that but, they are going to waist their time doing nothing. All in all, the sixth sense project is going make the humas life easier in many ways.

The greatest things about technology are many. It can make your life easier. Is very useful for work. It takes your boredom away. Also, in many cases people get addicted to technology. They can't live without it. Technology makes everything for them, they forget who they really are and that they have life. Finally, its good to use techonolly because is very helpfull, but it also takes away time from real life.

When the man talks about Open Source he means that is going to be free and people can change it the way they like it. Its going to be good because you get to choose whatever to do with it. On the other hand, a disadvantafe is that people may change it to a negative way. The opposite of what he've created and do something bad with it. Its very useful and helpful for people who are very busy. Also, its bad because you dont know what type of things they may do with it. Finally, is going to be free and people will change it.
