Week 4 Feb. 22-28, 2012
Week Four Feb. 22- 28 I am very confused. I read on one place we were supposed to be blogging already and a different place that were are not supposed to be blogging until March 2nd. I really don't know what else to do except to keep posting I would rather be safe than sorry. I guess if we weren't supposed to start until March it would be alright with me because as it turns out, I wasn't posting new blogs the whole time I was just replying or commenting under the first blogs status, so at least I won't be doing that when it gets to grading time! I am grateful that I finally figured it out and since I did it on my own, I feel very smart (ha ha ha). Well I took a test in my Spanish class again today, I think I came close to acing it! So far I have gotten 46 /52 and 42/42 so I hope I do well. I really like my class, It was so embarrassing at first getting up and walking around trying to speak Spanish. I felt like I was tripping over my tongue the whole time, but then just when I would be about to give up, I would finally be able to "get 'er done" so to speak. Every time I manage to master something it is a very good feeling. I think starting out slowly, with just 2 classes, was the best thing I could do for myself. I am feeling much more confident and will be ready to go much harder next semester.

Week 2- Feb. 8-14
Week 2- Feb. 8-14
I am going to have to go to bed earlier from now on, all these late nights and early mornings are too much for this old lady. So I have been doing my online class and it is alright. I think that twitter is pretty fun even if I don't have any followers, at least I can see how it would be fun for today's youth, and the electronically savvy. Figuring out how to get a group of strangers to collaborate on a website was a little more challenging. I noticed that there were only a couple of leaders in the group, and since I want to do well in the class I was one of them. We were lucky enough to have a computer geek on our team, which is great news! He is also one of the leaders. Now I just hope he will be able to continue with the technical support for the rest of us through out the project. He already has the website up and running but the rest of the group is lagging on getting registered on the website page... Oh well that is on them, I will just keep doing what I have to do and if I have to, I will poke them with a stick, ha ha, just kidding!

Well I am more than a little mad, I forgot to tweet on twitter and ruined my perfect record and thus my perfect grade! That's funny, cause I am actually hoping to do well in this class, but not perfect! ha ha ha. Good news on the website collaboration project- we picked a topic and its something I feel amply qualified to write a page on. I am going to do some videos and post them on youtube tomorrow so they will be ready to use as hyperlinks on my page of our website. I will also be taking pictures and using them to illustrate the text on my page. They should add some color and flavor to the page. I am enjoying the classes I am taking very much and I hope to take more next semester. Talk to you all again next week.
