Journal: 2/26 School uniforms?!?!

I think school uniforms are fine as long as they are nice in style and in quality, which is the material they're made out of. Also, they should be approved by most students, if the majority of the students agrees to school uniforms, I'm okay with them.

Journal: 2/24 HOT!!

HOT tips for photshop:

1.) Always duplicate the Background layer when working on any image. This allows you to look at or return to the original very easily. Name the layers to avoid confusion.
2.)If you made a mistake immediately go Edit > Step Backward or use History as shown on page 17.
3.)In the early versions there are no preset sizes - simply enter in the required dimension. Go Image > Rotate Canvas to get a landscape page.

The tool that I like the most is the sponge tool because it mixes the colors of the places you click so that it looks like that the color changed into another color. But too bad that we don't use this tool that often.

What would you do if there were no computers...
I would read books and comics and probably go shop bookstore for more comics of my mom let me buy them. If I can't read, I'd draw pictures and listen to music in my MP3 or hide in the corner of my closet and daydream. I really like hiding in my closet. But I'd still miss the computer a lot- we can't play online games, listen to free music, chat on MSN or facebook, use the internet telephone, and most of all- homework. There are many homework assignment that require the computer: to type and search info. Actually, if there were no more computers, I'd think that there's one reason less to live. I can't live without a computer!!!

I learn and remember best when...
  • I see the list of instructions clearly explaining what to do.
  • The working place is not to quiet or too loud.
  • There's an example for me to understand what my final work should be like.
  • A teacher is there for me to answer all my questions.
  • THE TOPIC INTERESTS ME

That's problaby it.

The part of computer class I like the least is when... geez... I really don't know- there's nothing I dislike about computer class. I think everything is fine the way it is. Oh! I know what I dislike, I don't like the noise the six grader boys are making. I think they're kind of loud and it makes others a bit hard to concentrate on working. Sorry to be offensive- but I wish they can lower their voices a bit. Thank- you.

Journal: 2/12 Computer Class

So far the best part of this class is not having homework. Also I like to practice typing in Mavis Beacon and working in photoshop, it's really fun! I enjoy this class a lot.

I wish that homeroom was a time that we can do what we want but we still have to be at our seats and be quiet. So that means that we can do homework if we want. I also hope that our homeroom teacher don't have to be so angry when we're late or lots of us asked to go to the bathroom. I think homeroom is the time when we could take a break (especially like going to the bathroom) and wrap things up ( like writing things down or finishing the last part of a work).
In our homeroom time, we're only allowed to read quietly and we'd get scolded when we talk, not reading a book, being late, and too much of us asking to go to the bathroom. So I hope the rules of homeroom can change a bit.

Journal:2/6

Today, we were introduced to a new online world encyclopedia web. I thought it was quite cool, and it has many information and pictures (if you chose the correct article), that's why I like it. But when you scroll down the page after you clicked 'go' for a topic, you'll find articles that aren't about the topic. Only the first one is, but the rest of the articles weren't about the topic, and I think that's bad.

Journal: 2/4

Over the holidays, the things I enjoyed the most were playing with my niece and seeing my cousins. My niece likes to run around and scream, she also likes to sit in front of the piano. But, most of all, she likes to be around Angus. We are not sure why she likes Angus the most, but the rest of the family think it's because he's the youngest in the family in the house (which is true). She's kind of chubby but is very cute and funny, especially when she talk gibberish. I have a lot of cousins, most of them are older and have jobs. New Year Eve is the time when we meet annually. This New Year Eve, after dinner, some of my cousins rushed out to 7-11 to by junk food and games, such as Uno. even though my brothers and I can only play with them a short time, I enjoyed the short happy moment!!!
I hope everyone enjoyed their Chinese New Year holiday!
