Do Again

June 8

I enjoyed doing movie maker this year because I had a bit of fun with it. It was fun putting the pictures, music, and subtitles into a movie, along with transitions. I like everything we did... but I guess movie maker was the best.

AST

June 4

5 words used to describe AST:

• memorable
• rainy
• itchy!!!!!!!
• awesome
• international

Annoyed

June 2

I get so annoyed when I'm searching for something on the internet and a whole bunch of suggestions come up but not the one I'm looking for. For example... I can't download any music!

Dragon Boat Festival

May 27

I'm doing nothing during Dragon Boat Festival other than hanging out with Johanna on Friday and crying over Ashley since she's not coming back. :( I might be going piano shopping but I don't think I will.

Good Video

May 25

I like a good video if I get to know more people and if theres some sort of life techniques involved plus fighting. I know I'm crazy.

Games

May 21

I think games are fun because they are something to kill time with. There are different kinds of games and a lot of them test skills.

Blogging

May 15

I like blogging because we can "almost all the time" write whatever we want. I get to write about what's going on in my life... more of the things that I'd actually share than the personal things...

Hollywood

May 13

In my video, I will collage pictures of animals and put in words that rhyme with the animals.

Mother's Day

May 11

Mother's Day was fun because I got to celebrate Johanna's birthday and stay away from my family. (My family isn't that bad unless they're fighting... but aren't most families that way?)

Searching

May 7

If I could create a video, it would be about... making a card or a collage on www.picnik.com.

Phishing

May 5

To protect yourself against hackers, Facebook suggests that users should shun messages, posts or links asking for log-in information and to always make certain they are visiting the social networking Web site’s legitimate address: www.facebook.com.

Also...
Happy Cinco de Mayo!

If I go to the US

May 1

If I go to the US, I would...

• visit my friends in California
• go on a shopping spree
• go visit my friends in Michigan
• go on a shopping spree
• hang out at Monarch Bay in California
• go to Mission Viejo Mall
• go to Claifornia Adventures
• go to Boomers
• go to Disneyland
• go to Knott's Berry Farm
• have fun!!!!!

$1000000

April 24

If I had a million dollars I would buy myself a new wardrobe...
But if I didn't want to sound selfish I would donate $100000 of the money. Maybe more.

Earrth Day

April 22

Why do we wear yellow today?
We wear yellow today because yellow is the new Earth Day green color. Not really. We wear yellow today instead of green because we were told to do so.

• Earth Day is international way to represent people caring for the earth
• Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
• turn off electricity that you aren't using
• don't use a lot of of water
• reuse any water bottles
• find a use for any item that you have instead of throwing it away
• recycle your items
• don't throw recyclable items into the trash

MUN

April 20

What I learned from MUN is that everyone is dressed in black-and-white and the whole school is crowded. Also, the ending ceremony is very boring... I nearly fell asleep!

Global Student

April 14

I think I'm a global student because...

• I have traveled to many places in the world (most of them forgotten)
• I have many foreign friends from all of my friends
• I have a finnish friend im Finland
• My mom is from Shanghai, my dad is Australian, and I'm American
• I just am

Short Class

April 10

I like both 90 minute classes and 45 minute classes because in 90 minute classes you get more work done but in 45 minute classes school tends to be shorter.

Making a Difference

April 8

I could make a difference in reaching the UN goal of Ensuring Environmental Sustainability by:

• cutting down on car rides
• add a little garden to my balcony
• walk to somewhere unless its miles away
• cut down on electricity and water

UN Mellenium Goals

March 6

Goal 1: Eradicate Extreme Hunger and Poverty

Goal 2: Achieve Universal Primary Education

Goal 3: Promote Gender Equality and Empower Women

Goal 4: Reduce Child Morality

Goal 5: Improve Maternal Health

Goal 6: Combat HIV/AIDS, Malaria and other diseases

Goal 7: Ensure Environmental Sustainability

Goal 8: Develop a Global Partnership for Development

The goal I would like to work on is Ensure Environmental Sustainability because I know the world can be a cleaner place, we're just making it dirtier. The fresher the environment is, the healthier everyone should be (that includes no smoking).

Return From Holiday

April 2

It was a lonely holiday because I was missing my friends too much. Also because I didn't understand most of the language since it was in Shanghai dialect.

Though I did everything on my to-do list.

To Do List

March 19

On this holiday, I hope to do the following 5 activities:

• go shopping
• be able to go on the computer
• visit my cousins
• do more shopping
• buy gifts for almost everyone :D

Internet

March 17

If I controlled the Internet...

• I would create newer and funner games on random websites so everyone thinks the websites are wacko.
• I would open as many screens as the computer would allow me and play as many games as I can.
• I would talk to all my friends that I miss and haven't seen or talked to in like forever.

My Favorite Weekend

March 13

My favorite weekend would go like this:

8:00 A.M. - Wake up

9:00 A.M. - Eat breakfast

9:30 A.M. - Go on the computer

11:30 A.M. - Do D.D.R.

1:00 P.M. - Go shopping with friends

4:00 P.M. - Go to Starbucks with friends and buy a drink

4:30 P.M. - Have more fun with friends

6:00 P.M. - Watch movie with friends

9:00 P.M. - Have sleepover with friends

Some where between 11:30 A.M. and 1:00 P.M. I would eat lunch. Somewhere between 6:00 P.M. and 9:00 P.M. I would eat dinner.

That would be the bestest weekend for me that I know I will never get.

Best Photoshop So Far

March 11

So far, I liked doing assignment Freeze Text, because it was easy, sorta fun, cool, and quick.

Fun at Assemblies

March 9th

Assemblies are fun if the information we were told weren't so boring to hear, especially if they were things we already knew. Maybe if we just had more "fun time" it would be a little funner, but not that much.

Assembly

March 5

I wish that when we go to the assembly, we could have less talking and more "fun time".

Uniforms

February 26

I do not favor uniforms. Uniforms are sweat suit in Taiwan, which are uncomfortable for me, and they're plaid skirts and white top for girls and grandpa pant (no offense) for guys with a white top in the US. I never liked uniforms and never will, unless they go with what I usually wear: jeans, tank top, and jacket.

Tips For Using Photoshop

February 24

Three tips for using Photoshop are:

• Hue is color and saturation the richness of the color.
• The use of guides is strongly recommended to help alignment.
• Remember the keyboard shortcuts. To add a selection use the SHIFT key. To fill a selection use ALT + BACKSPACE.

What would you do if there were no computers?

February 20

If there were no computers in the world, I would either watch tv, go on my phone, or complain to anyone that I'm bored and something new (like computers) should be invented.

Learn

February 18

I learn and remember best when I can listen, take notes, and read. Also do an activity with the project helps a bit.

Worst

February 16

The part of computer class I like the least is when we have to do photoshop since I like picnik better.

Best

February 12

So far, the best part of this class was creating the delicious account.

Homeroom

February 10

I wish that homeroom was in the morning so we could settle our minds into school instead of sleep.

Info. Web.

February 6

World Book Kids

What I liked about the site was that the site gives you lots of information and give you lots of activities that you can do.

What I didn't like about it was that you cant play games on it and the site costs money.

I looked up Stonehenge. The site tells you what scientist think Stonehenge was used for. It also tells you that the government protects it. Although the site gives me some information, it doesn't give my enough information to understand Stonehenge.

More Photoshop

January 19

A pixel is a little square that's been digitized.

Magic Wand is a selection tool that selects areas based on color.

If I get some money in my red envelope, I will save it for my birthday in March.

Photoshop

January 15

Crop is cutting the picture.

Flatten image is to make all layers become one.

A website that I like to go on but I haven't been able to go on in a while is:

www.candystand.com

awesome candy games.

Computer

January 13

A user interface is a keyboard, mouse, touchscreen, and voice (something to help you communicate with your computer).

An icon is a picture for each computer program (Internet Explorer).

A URL is a website address.

My wpm today is 28 wpm.

Before I go on holidays, I would like to do internet game websites, in this computer class.

If I Had One Free Hour on the Computer I Would...

January 9

If I had one free hour on the computer I would...

• play games
• watch videos
• go on Facebook
• go on other websites that I sometimes go on
• talk to friends in the states
• go on Blogger
• go on www.picnik.com
• do anything and everything I can think of

What To Do in Photoshop

January 7

I would like to add stuff to pictures. Maybe a couple more puzzles...

First Day of School

January 5

The first day back at school, I thought I should try to open up and try to talk to all the new girls in my class. At least I had a better lunch than last semester.
