Well this is it. I have to say this was my favorite course that I took this semester. I cannot believe it is over and went by this quickly though. I am so thankful for everything that I learned in this course, my amazing professor and all the memories ...

Well this is it..my final blog post, being written with a concussion and on pain meds..so bare with me please! Idea 1: To write all the words you think describe you out on paper. Though to make it fun write it in a way you think describes the word, use color and use it as a time to be nice to yourself and reflect on the good things about yourself instead of the negatives. Examples: Creative–write in a cool way Smart–write in cursive Outdoorsy–draw flowers or something around the word Idea 2: Make a background for DS106 with all the creative things you have made throughout the course. This can include writings, pictures, things you made..anything! Make it into something fun and that someone could use to advertise the class or even use as their computer background. Make sure it shows your best work. I submitted my ideas on the website, but I am unsure as to how to get proof for you of that!

Are you wondering how in the world to reflect on your freshman year? http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/reflection-for-freshman/ 1. Make a soundcloud. 2. Do so by going to soundcloud.com and making an account. 3. Recording from soundcloud is easier for those new at this, go to upload and click record. 4. Reflect upon your freshman year, think about all the good and bad things, all the new things you learned. Writing things down may help, or just talking and seeing where it goes so you are completely open and honest, whatever works best for you. 5. Click upload after recording. 6. Make a creative title and write a description about the post, put any tags you have to, shown under the assignment. 7. Click save. 8. Wait for the upload to be complete. Here is my example: I talked about how horrible my first experience of college was at SU and how miserable I was, but after transferring here to UMW, I couldn’t be more happy and grateful. Faced with a few injury setbacks, but never to the point of giving up because of my amazing friends and family here to help me out.

Are you wondering how to do the storytelling assignment? Well, look no further than here! http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/storytelling-through-pictures/ 1. Decide what you want to base the story off of. Are you going to tell the story of your life? A sports team you made? Your first year of college? A friendship? 2. Once that is decided, look for pictures that show the story accurately. Try to not use words, try to just look for good pictures that really bring the story together. 3. Decide if you are going to create a timeline or college, or anything else you believe will tell the story right. 4. Put the pictures to together in storytelling order..make sure it makes sense to someone who doesn’t know you. 5. Do a brief right up about it, explain what you showed the story of and why you did it, use this as a time to reflect upon yourself. Here is an example: I did a college, starting in the left corner, my first semester of college, my first college football game cheering with my best friend. Then I continued on with three pictures with my other best friend, one is the first picture we took and the other ...

Well this was a crazy week, due to the fact I got a concussion falling out of a tree trying to find noir cat, i’ve been very limited to what I am allowed to be doing when it comes to work and things. I also cannot look at computers for long periods of time, so this is pretty complicated. This week the tune squad finally met together in our special location on the University of Mary Washington campus. We had a few breaks in the case finally leading to the discovery of the noir cat, delivering it safely back to black. We used audio as our main source. Having five audio videos ranging from 3-5 minutes, we were able to complete the task. Each day we recorded something differently, talking about the case and the breaks we had, the suspects, everything new in the case. Then each member in the group posted on our website about the case, though with my limited computer time, I was unable to post as much, though I was apart of all of the audio. For our other items we have a email we found as writing, a picture I found from Lucy goosey that ...

Well the Tune Squad took on our very first attempt at making our agency a thing. We got thrown our first mission to solve, the tale of the missing noir cat..oh my! Me being the animal lover I am, this hit me to the heart pretty hard, but I tried to hol...

I chose to create my very own license plate because I finally got clearance in order to dive, undercover of course.

http://inspire.ds106.us/typography/ I loved this because I think in current society, love is taken for granted and people truly don’t think about it as something as much as they should.
