Starting Photography

Right now I have the basic knowledge of photography. I know how to work the camera and take the pictures. My experience with photograpy is okay, I don't take a lot of pictures but I do take some. Most of the pictures I take are sports pictures. I am expecting to learn a lot from this unit. Here is what I believe is a great photograph. It's a sports picture which I mostly take and it's in action.



Exam Experience

I believe I did very well on most of my exams, there are a few that I am not so shure about. I have found out that I have done well in both my math and my english exam. I do think that we should have mandatory exams because it will help everyone in the long run. We will all know how to study and take exams in college. It also teaches us on how to deal with stress and pressure on doing well , because we had to deal with it from the exams. I do believe taking high school exams is good practice for college, however taking all of them I'm not so shure about. In college a full time student will have to take maybe five exams which are spaced out and normally only one or two a day. Also in college you only have five classes a week instead of seven classes five days a week. This makes college easier to take exams where as for high school so many teachers have covered so much stuff, its hard to remember what each teacher taught. The exams I took were comprehensive and I'm glad I spent time studying for them. I spent a lot of time studying I spent some of my friday night studying. I studied all of sunday, and looked it over monday. I came to school tuesday and studied for the exams. After that I took each day at a time wednesday studying for my 3, 5, and 7 exams and then thursday for my 2, 4, and 6 exam.

My weekend

This weekend we ripped up my dad's floor at the store. My Grandpa and I had already ripped up 5 different layers of flooring. When we ripped up the linoleum we found newspapers under it. We looked at one and the newspaper was dated December 28, 1931. I was shocked at the date because I didn't know the floor was that old. My grandpa and I carefully ripped up the floor and we put together the Toledo Blade, the Detroit Free Press, and a couple of the Daily Telegrams. We kept those and put them off to the side and threw away the rest of the paper we ripped up. Later that night I brought the paper home to show Gabrielle and Chad. Chad started to read the paper and found a relative of his in the paper. So, it ended up being a pritty interesting weekend

Christmas Break

I had an exciting but relaxing Christmas break. The first day of break we had our shoot out which went very well. From 11 to 12 that night we played Sardines. The next couple of days I stayed around the house and just relaxed. I went shopping for Christmas presents with Gabrielle, for the rest of the family. There was a couple of days where I had basketball practice. We had our Christmas Tournament which went alright, we won against LCS and I was sent to the emergency room that game. I had to go to the E.R. because a girl stabbed me in the eye with her fingernail. It was crazy because I went blind in my right eye for about 10 minutes. The trainer told me it was like a horror movie where it shows the angels crying because I was crying blood, which they think is why I couldn't see.On Thursday we played Madison and lost by 5, but it was a good game cause we was only down by 1 with 2 minutes to go in the game. That night we got a phone call from Catherine and she told us she got her nose broke. We spent the New Year's together counting inventory for my dad and relaxing at home.
