For my project I thought that a web page would be more exciting because I could add any aspect of my topic in any form that I wanted; Pictures, videos, essay’s etc.  Specifically for my project I had chosen to write a few paragraphs giving the background and overall information on the topic of interest. I then created a video that showed some of the pictures and videos that were primary sources of the Rwanda genocide. I put everything together using iweb, so that it be easier to put everything in a C.R.A.P formation.

            For the actual timing of the project was great. I had the project done six days before the actual due date, there fore was able to go over everything multiple times without worrying about the time rather or not there was enough of. This also enable myself to have a few of my peers look over the project and correct any mistakes that I may have been overlooked. The only fault that I ran into was the day I had to turn everything in. I was not in school, but I still managed to get my project in nonetheless.

            The longest part of the project was they making of the video. The pictures weren’t to difficult to find, but trying to get video was almost impossible. I would find different pages with amazing video but I had no way of downloading them. This is partially what made me add the part of my website that had links to other pages. I wanted the viewer to get the entire feel of what had happened in Rwanda and what other way to do that than to have actual footage of the genocide taking place?

            But, overall the project went pretty smoothly. I kept looking and I am satisfied with my final design. If I had to change anything about this project I would probably have interviews with some victims about the entire event. The interview would be to bring the audience closer to allow them to connect and hopefully feel what the victims have felt in Rwanda. 

What did you learn from doing this project? (skills, life lessons, words etc) 
-I learned how to better use iMovie along with how to use and conjugate verbs in spanish to create Spanish sentences that make sense.
How do you feel about your final product?
-I feel good about it but wish i put more time into it since i didn't use my time very well. I feel like i definitely could have done better with creating the video.
If you could do your project all over again, what would you do differently/the same?
-I would use my time WAY better than i did and try to add more content and video to the movie.
Did you enjoy this project? Why or why not?
-Yes i enjoyed it a lot since i learned more about my schedule daily.

    Once upon a time in a far away land called Northeast Philly, a young family sat in the basement of their relative's home waiting for a speech to come from their leader, Mom. Mom was a complex creature, an incredibly emotional person and you had to be careful what you said to her and how you reacted to her news. She saw everything and she overreacted to everything. So, the three minions sat in patience waiting for whatever life-changing thing was going to happen this time. The eldest minion had an idea, but refused to believe that it could possibly be the reason they were gathered there. And then, Mom let the bomb drop; a baby was to be born. And Mom watched each of the minions as they rejoiced of the creature to become part of their village. And each of the minions did rejoice, on the outside.
No one's quite sure whether the youngest minions were earnest in their rejoicing or not, but some of us understand that the eldest minion was shaken to her very core about the news. If not for the fact that Mom would surely be exceedingly upset if her favorite minion began to cry, she would have been curled up and sibling against the cold, hard ground. But, every one knows that your leader comes first, always. And if rejoicing meant leaving a smile on Mom's face, then that was what her minions would do.

In this podcast I interviewed my mom about what her life was and how she grew up as a jewish child and what she would consider herself.

Happy, Happy birthday...from all of us to you...we wish it was our birthday so we could party too...HEY!!!

Today is March 3^rd and it’s Amber birthday so we’re going out to Ruby Tuesday to celebrate after school.

Here is my "Daily" Routine. Hope you enjoy it. 

one house, two people,  3 secrets.

When I was in 8th grade, I lost my most precious pet.  His name was White Cloud and he was a white/yellow/blue/green parakeet.  This bird was my absolute life.  I know it may seem odd that such a small animal could mean so much to a person.  Sometimes I feel like people will never understand how much I value animals, especially parakeets.

White Cloud was given to me by my grandma for my 8th birthday.  When he was six years old, he was suddenly diagnosed with cancer.  The veterinarians said that he had a large tumor in his abdomen that was pressing against some major nerve endings.  Veterinarians at the Penn Animal Hospital were unable to save him after putting him under anesthesia.  He was taken off of life support right before my eyes.  Right before he passed, he waved his wing once with a solemn "goodbye" and took his final breath.

That day, I remember going home with my mom and placing his empty cage back up on the table.  We thought that having the cage there would help ease some of the pain.  However, it only made things worse.

Unable to bear the feeling of losing my beloved bird, we decided to go out and buy a new parakeet that day.  This is when I found little Tiger.

Tiger looked exactly like White Cloud when we found him at the pet store.  He was all white and very shy.  We took him home, cleaned out the cage, and welcomed him into our household.

Over the next few months, my pain began to diminish as Tiger grew closer and closer to my heart.  He began to do many of the same things that White Cloud did, like jump on the side of the cage for kisses and bark at unfamiliar objects.  He also loved staring at himself in the mirror and being picky over what seeds to eat.  He even began to change into the same colors as White Cloud as he molted throughout the seasons.

Since then, Tiger has become the spitting image of White Cloud.  I honestly feel like he is White Cloud in a second life.  I could not ask for a better pet parakeet to cherish as much as I did White Cloud. 

What the h*** happen to you?

She did it…  

NO WAY!

After school yesterday Rumman and I went to olive Garden to eat and just hang out. After eating we went to 15^th street to take the L to go home. While on the L an African American family got on they were about six and as soon as they got on our cart that was once quit got loud. The father atomically told this guy to move over so that his dad can sit. Rumman and I looked at each other like what, like it was rude the way in which he asked the guy to move over. And that wasn’t even the bad part. Since there were six of them two of them sat in front of us, another two sat behind us, and the last two sat across from us. So Rumman and I were boxed in like they were talking so loud and listening to music with out and head earphones they were acting as if they were in their own private vehicle. It was a mess and the other people that were on the L began to talk about them I swear if they were my family I would have acted as if I didn’t know them lol.

2) Allende era un buen Presidente.
3) Los EE.UU. estaba interesado en ayudar/apoyar/proteger a Chile.
4) El General Pinochet era un buen líder.
5) El comunismo tiene buenos aspectos.

D. ¿Qué impresión tienes del General Pinochet? ¿Por qué crees que tenía tantos (so many) admiradores?

I when I woke up this morning I did not feel good at all. I had a headache so I decided since we get out early today anyway I’d just stay home and take some medicine and sleep it off. Five hours later when I woke back up I felt much better so I got out of bed took a shower got dress and started doing my homework and other assignments. I’m glad that I stayed home and got some rest and a lot of my work done and I feel great!

-Using speakerphones in public

-People who are loud on public transportation

-People who tell all their business on public transportation

-Adults that stereotype that all teenager are the same

-When guys leave the toilet seat up

-When guys have a belt on and yet their pants are falling

-People who wear too much perfume

-Ignorant people

-Litterbugs

-Strangers who talk to you as if they know you

-Adults who talk down at you

-Women/girls who make all females look easy

This is me doing a monologue, my character name is Joan. Basely she is confronting her best friend about something that happen almost a year ago and how she felt

Okay what is wrong with the School District? I woke up this morning took a shower got dress and started doing my hair when my little cousin said you don’t have to get ready. I asked her why and she replied because we don’t have school. So I ask why? And she said because of the snow. What snow? You mean it snowed last night and she said yes. So I stop doing my hair and went to look out the window, and I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. I mean I do wear glasses. You mean we got a day off school because of this? Really like not even a two-hour delay but a whole day off. No this can’t possibly be true so I grabbed my laptop and typed in the Google search engine Philadelphia School District and clicked on the like and this is what it read…

“Due to the inclement weather, all School District of Philadelphia schools are closed Tues, Feb 22. Also closed for all 12-month principals and assist principals.”

This is B.S Schools got cancel for like about a 1/12 of snow are you kidding me? We better not get days taken away from our Spring break due to this bull because this was their fault and not ours we all could have went to school today instead of staying home.

For my capstone project I’m creating a business plan for my boutique. So far everything seems to be falling into place. I’ve been on track with my outline in fact I’ve done all the part that I needed to and now I’m doing other parts that’s due later dates.  But for some reason I’ve been stuck on the Executive Summary for the past two days and don’t know what to write. But to my surprise today when I opened my Google doc and began to write I could not stop myself and ended up write four pages before stopping.  I hope this continues until my entire project is completed.

This weekend my cousin was over he was in the basement playing video games. And I was upstairs in my room watching one of my Korean dramas went suddenly the Internet went off. I was like what the hell just happen? I was in the middle of the good part like Mary was about to find out about who kidnapped her boyfriend. Like really, really, so I went down stairs to see what was wrong.  The light wasn’t on but I could still see with the light from the TV. So I bent over to see what was wrong, and I saw that the power plug had came out off the wall. I put the plug back in and just when I began to get up my cousin jumped an screamed while running towards the back door it was the most funniest thing I’ve ever seen. I couldn’t stop laughing, apparently he was in the bathroom when I came downstairs and since it was dark he didn’t see me so when I got up he thought someone had broken in and that’s why he screamed and ran.
