Newscast Project Experience

I had a pretty good newscast experience so far. I have not had a chance to record because the day we finished our script, it somehow got deleted from my computer and I had to completely rewrite it. This set us back so we haven't finished it yet. I like the newscast project though because I thought it was pretty fun and was not that difficult. I hope we do more partner projects because I like those best. Hopefully I will be able to finish recording tomorrow. :) I commented on Maggie Rothan's blog.

The Things I Am Thankful For

There are many things for which I am thankful. I am thankful for my family above all. Without them I would have nothing because my family is everything. I am thankful also  for all of my friends.  I am thankful for God. I am thankful for my good education and the opportunities that arise from it. I am thankful for my house that keeps me warm in the winter. I am thankful for  the opportunity I have to play sports like  soccer, basketball, and water skiing.  I am thankful for the University of Notre Dame.  I am thankful for my life in general.

Political Cartoon

I chose this cartoon because I thought it was funny how the guy who is stranded and living on the island is talking to himself using different names. He's holding a conversation that involves like four different people in his head. I commented on Connor Schuler's blog.

My Invention

If I were to invent something, I would invent a machine that would clean my room for me. I hate cleaning my room. I am gone so much that I usually am too tired to make sure I keep that clean. My mom would then get mad at me and make me clean my room. Having a machine that could do all that for me would definitely complicate my life a little less. I would have more time for other thing that i would normally not have time to do. The machine would help me be a little more organized because I am not the most organized person, and that will sometimes get me into a little bit of trouble. So a machine that could clean rooms would be what I would invent if I was an inventor.

This picture is inspiring to me because this man isn't letting anything get in the way of his dreams and is extremely determined. He wouldn't let anyone tell him he couldn't do something. I commented on Jessie Blair's blog.

Podcast Experience

I had a pretty good experience with our podcast project. I did my podcast on the Happenning. It is the scariest movie I have ever seen. I haven't had too many problems with it. However, I had to record my podcast a couple times because it erased. It took me awhile after I re-did it becuse it took a long time for the podcast to save on my flash drive. That was Probably because audio takes longer to save than pictures or documents. I like making the podcast though, because it was easy and all you had to do was follow the directions closely and you could figure it out.
