This week we spent a lot of time writing, and writing, and writing. While writing has never quite been my strong suit I did enjoy this week. I liked the freedom that we had in picking which writing assignments we wanted to do and how creative we were allowed to be. I started off doing …

Growing up I remember watching the movie Sixteen Candles over and over again with my now 16 year old sister. We loved it, we hung on to every scene of the movie with anticipation like we were seeing it again for the first time. The writer knows how to keep the viewer in suspense. To …

Dear 10 year old Kayla, Never give up your dreams. If there is one thing that you should know it is that sometimes it’s impossible to please everyone no matter how hard you try. You are STRONG. You are SMART. You are BRAVE. Don’t waste your time hanging on every word that others say, follow …

For this assignment I chose to relate it to our class 80’s theme. Girls Just Wanna Have Fun in one of my all time favorite songs. I remember my Junior year of high school I was in a female jazz choir and we did an acapella version of this song. It really just makes you …

This week we were challenged to get our brains following with creativity and do an assignment that the Daily create twitter page posted that day. I had a lot of fun with these as they usually didn’t take a ton of time but didn’t have straight forward rules and allowed us to interpret things. For …

I struggled more than I thought through this week. I have never been a huge social media person so other than instagram and slightly twitter I hadn’t had any prior experience with them. The main issue that I kept having was that I found things didn’t publish right away or show up on the course…
