Favorite Technology Tool

Friday, January 7, 2011

If I had to choose my favorite type of technology tool, I would choose my I-Pod Touch.  My I-Pod is so amazing and I love it so much.

My I-Pod Touch is one of my favorite technology tools because you can do so many things with it.  You can listen to music while serfing the web all at once if you have a wireless connnection.  You can also text if you have a texting app and that lets you text anyone.  I also enjoy the games you can get for it.  Some are free and some can be bought, but at a reasonable price.

The Art Institue of Pittsburgh

Wednesday, December 8, 2010

The woman who was here from The Art Institute was pretty cool. She let us in on a lot of good information about the art world.  She showed us many types of classes and what you would do in those classes. Some of these classes were culinary, design, fashion, and media arts.  She actually told us that on the Got Milk? commercials, the milk on the celebrity's mouth wasn't really milk.  It was glue!

Honestly, I would like to go into the culinary field.  In the culinary field, I would like to bake.  I think baking would be very fun to do.  At home, me and my mom bake all the time.  It is very relaxing except when you burn the food!

My Thought On Game Design And Creation :)

Friday, November 5, 2010

My thought on video game design and creation is that I kind of like the idea about it.  During my 15 years of life, I have played many games is my freetime.  I play different types of games, but my favorite are restaurant games. 


In class, we're making this mini game together.  In a way, going through the steps to make it is boring, but I know it will all pay off in the end.  This Mini Game Project has really given me a new perspective about playing games because now I know how hard it is for these "Big Name Companies" feel.  It takes a lot of work to make kool video games for our youth today.

During my time in Globaloria, I have learned many things.  Something new I've learned in Globaloria is blogging, creating my wiki, played educational games, and set up my Flash stuff...

An interesting fact I've learned I came across while researching on choosing a topic was that people in West Virginia are obese.  So me and my partner have decided to make a game called Family Food.  We decided to make this game because we think this game can make a difference in our fellow West Virginias lives.  Well at least we hope so...

Racing Is Kool!!!

Monday, September 27, 2010

I think the racing game genre would better reflect my choice of game design.  I think it would be pretty fun and kool to do.  I also think it would be kind of challenging to make, but I think in the end it would be great!!! 

The graphics are nice I would like to know how to do that.  Making tracks and cars would be fun to do also.  Racing games are awesome!!!

INTERNET PRIVACY & SAFETY IS IMPORTANT FOR EVERYONE!!!

Tuesday, September 21, 2010

Internet safety and privacy are important tools to use in our everyday lives.  A lot of things could happen if you don't use those tools in life.  Some things include: identity theft, kidnapping, and rape.

Identity theft can happen to many people because of stupid mistakes like putting too much information on the internet.  Or they can just simply leave there purse or wallet on a table, in a car, or they could've just forgot to put it in a safe place.  Identity theft can also cause you to have to pay money back becasue someone stole your credit cards and bought exspensive things.

Another thing that could happen is kidnapping and rape.  Many teenagers don't realize it, but what they put on Myspace or Facebook could really get them hurt or in trouble.  There are many men and women out there that pose as young teenagers and try to talk to you.  Many of them try to meet up with you or want to take you places.  If someone asks you a question like that then you should say NO.  If a teenager does try to meet a stranger then they could rape or even kidnap you and never bring you back...

So just remember always be safe on the internet and never give out you personal information.
