Assignment 1: Make ‘Em Laugh (2.5) I chose this assignment because I love telling jokes and thought it would be a challenge to share a funny in a different language. Although I have been taking Spanish since I was in 8th grade (at various times in school), I of course don’t remember any of it. […]

I enjoyed listening to this audio storytelling. It was very interesting information in general, but what made it so great was the sound effects. It actually felt like I was in the  spaceship with them. Hearing the voices talking into their microphone was so realistic. You can hear their breath and every murmur that they […]

Happy Friday! I was a little late to the game this week. I started off really well, getting the first two assignments complete pretty early on. However, a lot of my work snuck up on me and I ended up having to wait to finish up the blog posts until Friday afternoon. I didn’t really […]

I think this activity was really cool! There were definitely a few on the list that tripped me up, and I’m not so sure they are the best examples, but I really tried! Here is what I came up with:        (under time!) Turn your food into the shape of a face: 2. Make a […]

I don’t really know what to think about this Daily Create. Here is my made up music. @ds106dc #tdc1713 Mozart Thought Game pic.twitter.com/QVS0wlYxwC — emily dzubak (@emillaaaaaaay) September 16, 2016

Assignment 3: Winterize It! (2 stars) My favorite season is almost here! Kind of. I’m not sure about you all, but I am tired of the heat. I cannot wait to see some snowfall on the ground. That’s why I chose this fun assignment! I used PicMonkey Photo Editing to make this beach scene a […]

Assignment 2: Selfie With Your Pet (3 stars) ***Warning – Sappy Post*** This assignment immediately caught my eye because of the photo of the dog. Anything having to do with dogs will always catch my interest! The photo below is my dog Shelby and I, taken the day I left for my freshman year of […]

Assignment 1: Can You See What I See? (3 stars) For this assignment, my duty was to create a photo inside of an eyeball. I took about 10 minutes trying to take a picture of my own eye, but couldn’t get a non-blurry photo. So I just googled pictures of eyes and I thought that […]

It’s Thursday! #happydotday @ds106dc #happydotday #ds106 pic.twitter.com/fmWmIFfQt6 — emily dzubak (@emillaaaaaaay) September 16, 2016

I thought that this Daily Create was too weird. Who comes up with this stuff? Nonetheless, I easily thought of a song for the wood nymph could dance too in the nearby woods. I’m not sure why this is the first thing that popped into my head, but can’t you see it dancing along with […]

Light This photo is a good example of light in photos. I think it’s beautiful because it shows one of my favorite things about nature: when light from the sun shines in through the trees. It is breathtaking. Lighting in pictures is extremely important, as you must have it placed in the right spot in order […]

I would by no means ever refer to myself as a photographer, but I do enjoy photography. I’ve always loved taking pictures of just about anything, whether it be of nature, people, or memories. I am most likely that person who has to take photos whenever i do something fun or out of the ordinary. […]

What a week! I really enjoyed this weeks assignments. The Daily Creates were very entertaining and I enjoyed doing all of them. I thought that it would take me a lot longer to come up with something clever, but surprisingly they only took me a few quick minutes.  I also loved the Assignment Bank. I definitely […]

Assignment 3: The Different Faces of Stress (1 star) I saw this assignment posting and immediately knew this had to be on my blog. And I knew the perfect face for it. I quickly texted my brother, who is a senior in high school, and asked him what he thinks three faces of stress look like … Continue reading ""

Assignment 2: To My Mom (4 stars) Dear Mommy, I wanted to take this time and say that you are one of my greatest gifts in my life. Not only did you birth me, take care of me when I was an emotional, smelly, whiney baby, and raise me to be an adult, but you gave me something … Continue reading "A Post Dedicated to Moms"

Assignment 1: We’re the Real Life Brady Bunch! (3 stars) When I came across this visual assignment, I immediately wanted to try it.  As I have mentioned several times in this blog, I’m not very tech savvy, so I knew it would be a challenge. But I had a great idea for it so why not … Continue reading "The New and Improved Brady Bunch"

I actually really enjoyed this Daily Create activity. Tuesday’s activity didn’t really require much thinking, since I really didn’t want to do what I ended up doing because I chose to be the greater-self. @ds106dc #tdc1703 I chose my greater self today when I fit in a lifting session in between classes! pic.twitter.com/ZM1hplMPO1 — emily dzubak … Continue reading "Daily Create"

I really enjoyed reading this article written by Shaun Nichols. It’s so crazy to think about how a silly short story has turned into a reality 70 years later. Nichols points out that Logic Joe is so complex and ahead of his time, that he almost comes off as evil. He is just a “solution … Continue reading "Forever Referring to Computers as Logics"

This reading proved to be a very interesting for someone that hasn’t done much of any type of blogging. It is a whole new world for me and am already learning new things with the few assignments that we have had. The most interesting piece that I took away from this reading is that everyone … Continue reading "The New Way to Keep a Diary"

I had a very interesting time with this blog. I’ve never taken an online class before and even though I am a responsible senior in college, I managed to forget I was enrolled in it until Wednesday this week. Thinking it was no problem at all, I started and then discovered that I don’t know … Continue reading "Weekly Summary"

#1:   This article talked about how in today’s world of technology we can use the Internet to increase our society’s knowledge.  It mentioned how there are barriers that have been keeping people from using the internet because it makes it more complicated.  If there were certain qualities that could be simplified, the internet could be … Continue reading "The Internet"

The article by Austin Kleon was very interesting to read. I think that they were all very helpful for someone like me, who has never been into the blogging world. While I have had a Twitter and Instagram for quite some time now, I never really revealed too many details about myself. At the most … Continue reading "Show Your Work!"

To make it a little easier to get to know me, I am posting some information about myself through social media! I’ve been on UMW’s crew team since my first semester here. Although waking up at 4:30am every day is exhausting, we get to witness the most breathtaking sunrises.   #ds106 a fun fact about me: … Continue reading "Introduction"
