I compared parts of our lives, we have the same values, but parents values there are revolved more around money. Everything seems the same. He doesn't have a job though, so I wonder how he survives. Where he lives people lose their virginity at age 20 or older. But recently teenagers have been having babies and he finds it weird. He said it's hard trying to go to a university full time and hopefully work. People become really stressed and rarely have time for anything. he makes about 50-60 bucks a day off of playing poker, but that's his only income. LIfe their doesn't sound too different for life for some people in America.

Bryanna's Negative Space
A. What is
negative space (explain this concept to a fourth grader that has never heard of
it)
Negative space is
the space between object/parts in a picture
B. Explain how you
found negative space in 1. your
cut out?, 2. in your stool
drawing?
In my cut out I
found my negative space by separating my darker areas on my paper to my light
areas. Then using construction paper to mimic that outline. Once I did that I just placed the cut out
pieces on one side and the whole pieces on the other. On my chair drawing I
just found the space in between the chairs, stool, and caution sign.
C. Why does it
help an artist to see in negative space?
It helps the
artist determine what perspective the picture needs to be drawn from. (bird’s
eye, eye level, and worm’s eye
D. Does seeing in
negative space enhance drawings, why or why not
Audrey's negative and positive space art.
What is a Negative Space?
A negative space is the background of a color that makes the art stand out. For example, such as in my art below, if you look at the right side the negative space is the blue outline and positive space is the green.
Explain how you found negative space in 1. your cut out?, 2. in your stool drawing?
I figured out negative when I understood how the color in the background makes the shadow of the art work stand out. In my stool drawing, I noticed when I shade in the shadows between the stools' legs, it makes the stool pop out and make itself notice that it's a stool.
Why does it help an artist to see in negative space?
So the artist will be able to let their viewers see the subject of the entire work better.
(Do you notice how I am missing a root of the tree on the left side of the drawing? lol, oops.)

Does seeing in negative space enhance drawings, why or why not?
Yes, seeing the negative space does enhance the drawing. Because when the negative space enhances, the positive space shows up. And the positive space is the object/SUBJECT of the entire art work.

Negative Space - Angelina Pingitore
Negative space is part of a image were space surrounds an object in a image

¿Qué es la vida diaria?
I went on sharedtalk and talked to someone named Alexander Tropa. He lives in Argentina and is 17 years old. I mainly asked him about his daily life, which is quite like the life here, and then we had an interesting conversation about Facebook, but that was mainly in English, so I didn't include most of it.

Post-Conversation
·
I spoke with 2 persons originating from Spain on
the language learning website. One named Karl Relher and the other named David
Suarez.
·
I haven’t asked so many questions about the
person’s life rather than the language. I focused on learning how to say a few
quality jokes in Spanish as well as learn the types of jokes are used.
·
This conversation benefited me in many ways. I
tended to think about what type of conversation I will most likely have in the
future and humor is my field of interest. Knowing jokes in Spanish will be an
icebreaker for meeting new people.
·
I did not think I would find quality jokes from
these conversations but they turned out to be pretty funny.
·
I would need to improve on asking what I want to
know with proper grammar. It seems that many of the people were confused of what
I was asking for. Conversation Partners:
Sierra Dinvil's blog post :]
Who did I speak with and why did I choose that person?
I chose to speak with my best friend Prisilla Nieves. I chose to speak with her because she's really good at explaining Spanish concepts to me. Also she is fluent in Spanish.
What did you learn about them? What did you learn from them?
I learned a lot about her family background and history. Things that I would not have known if it wasn't for this project. Also, I learned how to be more polite in conversation.How did this interaction help you move towards achieving your personal goal?
Since I know Prisilla so well, she was really easy to communicate with and easy to understand. She was able to clarify concepts that I misunderstood and to explain things to me from her perspective (so one who speaks spanish on a daily basis)
What specifically did you do well according to your goals/expectations?
I did well with using spanish throughout the entire conversation (except for when I need her to explain something). I didn't think I would be capable of doing so.What specifically do you need to improve on? (Quote specific things you said or did and what you would have done or said if you could do it again)
I need to improve on knowing when to use certain words to be more polite instead of the ones that I use already.

My Attempt to Converse Without Word Reference
How can I maintain a conversation and communicate my ideas without having to use Word Reference to look up words to use?
Pre:
¿Qué tal?
¿Donde vive?
¿Como está el tiempo?
¿Como está la comida?
I'm nervous to just simply not use word reference. I rely on it so much because there are so many words I just don't know. This is going to be very difficult for me.

Frazer-Ireland pero vive en Londres
Javier- Spain
I had a good time with who I talked with. Frazer was really cool because he lived in London and I had just visited. If I messed up a bit he didn't mind since he spoke English. Javier was cool because he would correct me nicely, whereas I've had some people correct me sort of meanly. I learned that they both loved paella, which funnily enough I first tried in London.
This helped me a lot. It was sort of nice not having to rely on the dictionary. It was difficult but it forced me to only rely on the knowledge I have. My grammar of course still needs improvement and just generally expanding my vocab but doing this I'm already learning words.
Danny Wirt
Ruben R.
Who did I speak to and why did I choose that person?
I spoke to Ruben R. He lives in Spain and I talked to him through sharetalk. I found it to be an easy way to communicate, and he is 17 so he is my age which made it easier to talk to him.
What did you learn about them? What did you learn from them?
I learned that Ruben is trying to learn english because he finds that learning other languages are useful. I also found out that he likes Real Madrid and his favorite player is Benzema. He also found it to be weird that I take a class for spanish.
How did this interaction help you move towards achieving your personal goal?
I feel as though this interaction with Ruben was helpful in a sense that we are both trying to learn different languages, and we shared a common interest, soccer.
What specifically did you do well according to your goals/expectations?
I guess what I did well was being able to interact with him without using much english. I used a little english since he is obviously trying to learn as well, but for the most part i used spanish.
What specifically do you need to improve on? (Quote specific things you said or did and what you would have done or said if you could do it again)
There was one instance where i had said something that could have been said a different way, and he explained to me that it is different, which was nice because it was like he is aiding me in my process of learning a new language.

GOOOOOOOOAL
To be honest, I didn't chat with anyone in live mocha or any other sites with chatting things. I did this because I know that if use the chatting method, I will be tempted to copy paste it in google translate. So I decided to speak to a person. Just like the Verizon telemarketer. It was really funny and lets say a bit awkward but he helped me a lot and he was really patient with me.
I didn't chat with anyone but I talked to my boyfriend who can speak fluently in Spanish and English. It was hilarious at first because we dont know what to talk about in Spanish. But then when we started to speak, it went on and on and on. It was actually nice because I know that if I chat with people and I don't know what they are talking about, I have the tendency to go to Google Translate to figure it out. But when we were talking, I dont have my computer with me and I cant translate it. So I have lets say a good practice with him because I actually learn more than just reading it. It was a nice practice to me because he also helped me with some vocabularies and helped me structure the sentence properly. It was also not awkward because I already know him and we don have to break the ice or some sort of thing. However, it was really hard and awkward when I started to talk to his mom. His mom cannot speak in English and only speak fluent and old Spanish. I'm still like a toddler when I speak Spanish and she speak really fast and use vocabularies that I dont even know of. It was hard but we kind of manage to communicate. I was really nice :)
About the skills that I want to improve on, I guess I'm almost there. I'm not a master already but I noticed that little by little, I'm getting there. The skills that I need to improve on is not an over night kind of development. I still need a lot of practice. I still stutter and have some hard time trying to find the right word but I noticed that I dont use english words as much as I used to. So kudos for that!
Who did I speak with and why did I chose that person?
- I spoke with my boyfriend because it was easier for me than talking to a random stranger and being all awkward.
What did you learn about them? What did you learn from them?
- We pretty much talked about the weather and food. He likes rainy weather because it makes him sleepy. I also learned how to structure my sentences the right way.
How did this interaction help you move towards achieving your personal goal?
- This helped me a lot because the conversation was not awkward and it was easy to talk about. The vocabularies that I needed to the conversation is already well known, so yea. It was pretty nice.
What specifically did you do well according to your goals/expectations?
- The not stuttering and spacing out. I actually did well on that. I use my hands to express what I want to say too much though but I think that's fine.

Carlos N. from Spain
Who did I speak to and why did I choose that person?
I spoke to Carlos N. who lives in Spain from ShareTalk because I was just looking to speak to someone my age and he happened to be the only person online in my age group.
What did you learn about them? What did you learn from them?
I learned that Carlos was a typical Philly kind of kid. He went to school and would just hang out with friends, but he's more studious that a majority of the city.
How did this interaction help you move towards achieving your personal goal?
I don't think it really seemed helpful because I can't carry out conversations fluidly with strangers. In a way, I asked so many questions, it seemed like I was an online surveyor telemarketer person.
What specifically did you do well according to your goals/expectations?
I guess the thing I did well was ask a lot of questions, I just couldn't make small talk out of it.
What specifically do you need to improve on? (Quote specific things you said or did and what you would have done or said if you could do it again)
The one thing I need to work on it making it flow well like an actual conversation rather than just saying "De donde eres?" then waiting for their response only to reply with another question.

you spoke with and why you chose that partner
I spoke with Iraidia because I wanted to talk to someone I was comfortable with to start this project off.
What
did you learn about them? What did you learn from them?
I did not learn much about
her, but she tried to teach me some common words like cuál is what, and maybe
is quizá.
How
did this interaction help you move towards achieving your personal goals?

One of my goals was confidence and working with a friend who was good at Spanish helped. I still have a lot of work to do and Iraidia was teasing me kindly about my use of the Spanish language since it is still quite choppy. I need to talk to more people outside of school because I will be speaking to people I can learn more about.
