Month: November 2017

This week has been very busy and tiring. This week in class we did job shadowing presentations. I got sick and was not able to make it on presentation day. I got sick and had to do mine the day after. I enjoyed listening to Juliana’s presentation. It was also the only one I got to listen to. During the presentation she looked very excited to tell everyone about the place she Job shadowed. I think she had fun where she job shadowed due to her smile during the presintation. I think she had the best experience due to her being the only one I heard from. If I can get over my fear of people I would consider job shadowing more places. I enjoyed watching how people work and what they do.
During this week my school has been talking about compassion and kindness. My personal feelings do not really care too much. Do not get me wrong compassion and kindness are both needed, I just do not go crazy over it. People can say what they like, I can not control another’s life. Every person has another person who they talk bad about. It may hurt one’s feelings but that is how real life is. People will be for you and against you. It is hard but you have to get over it. The people in the school do care for each other, but there are a few students who act like they care but really don’t. Just because someone is not in the theatre major does not mean they can not act. In the end though, the school as a majority are very courteous about compassion and kindness. A majority of students are very understanding and kind to people that may not be the same as them. That is one of the reasons I love this new school.
The video from advisory was ok, I am glad that people can express themselves. I am pretty chill with whomever. I do not usually ask quetions to people just because I’m a recluse. I do know how certain questions can make a person feel lesser than dirt, and can relate to the video. The video itself was ok and I was ok with it.
The main reason for my endless work is almost here. Thanksgiving break is here. I am so excited, I have been so busy and tired. Last week I got little sleep from school. I was very tired and I know I can sleep soon. Im thankful for my family, Friends, and well… everything. I hope that nothing bad happens while I’m on break.

This week has been rather long and draining. I have been working hard in my home life and school life. During the beginning of the week I was able to finish up my hot sauce label. I had to change the name of the hot sauce to make it more noticeable along with making it a little bigger so people could read it. I am glad how it turned out and that people like it. My Nine weeks ended fairly good. Ive been thanking God that I passed with all A’s. I really want to improve on all my grades. I want a good GPA.

So far on Photoshop I have not liked it. I am super confused and can’t seem to grasp the concepts of photo editing. I can fix red eye, turn a photo into black and white, and make a photo look vintage. I do like the drawing on Photoshop a lot more than Illustrator. I just hope that I can figure out how to do more things. I feel bad for how I am failing so badly at tutorials.

The SCAD presentation was really cool. I enjoyed watching the videos and learning about all the cool things their school offers. I don’t know if I’ll go there, but it is cool. I liked hearing about all the different places their students went, along with the many campuses they have. The amount of people who had jobs after graduating amazed me too. I wouldn’t mind reading up on more later.

My job shadowing was really fun. I enjoyed learning about how Waccamaw Publishers put the paper together. I was really surprised to hear how they use Photoshop and Illustrator. I really enjoyed watching how the people in the office all worked together. The time that goes into each page and story really amazed me. I also had the chance to go in the back and see the paper being printed. The machine was huge and printed the newspaper at an incredible speed. I had a good rest of the day when I got home and rested. I was very tired after walking around the building and learning. I hope the rest of my week goes well…
