For another assignment this week I decided to take on the bluntly named Pick a Bad Photo, Apply a Vintage Effect and Write Something in Helvetica. The directions for the assignment was essentially the title chose a random photo give it an effect and add some Helvetica text. (Personally I thought it interesting that Helvetica […]

This week was a really fun week, and I was so excited to dive into more assignments. This week was definitely a lot easier than last, as I was able to navigate my blog much better and also I embedded like a pro! The most difficult thing for me this week was Twitter. I am ... Read more

In this WebAssignments, I chose to create my dream vacation. I chose to do this because I absolutely love Pinterest. I logged into my already well-used Pinterest account and got to work.

This week I had to create a “design” assignment for the assignment bank. It had to go along with the “secret agent” theme so I looked up “words relating to spies.” I saw the word “cipher” and I knew that was perfect for what I needed to. I decided to create an assignment in which ... Read more

This week’s mission was harder than the last, but that’s how it goes (or so they told me in Secret Agent School). I ended up putting way more time into the assignments and getting more out of them. Whereas last week I spent most of the time registering accounts and getting things set up, this […]

I have a confession. I spend a lot of my downtime watching Game of Thrones when I’m not on a mission. To my delight, I found a Game of Thrones related assignment in the Visual section of the assignment bank. All I had to do was visit JoinTheRealm and stylize my own personal house banner. I decided […]

Faster. I always need to go faster. Sometimes I see people and I just think they’re moving like snails. It doesn’t matter what I’m doing. Running, watching, processing, improvising – whatever it is, I like moving quickly. Unfortunately, for my ears, that applies to my music as well. This is “Born a Champion” by David […]

This post is dedicated to the song I heard on my first day of Secret Agent School. I still remember it like it was yesterday. We were all lined up for our first practice mission, only to realize that our first mission was to watch the entire season of Death Note in one sitting. It was […]

Th second week is almost over which is crazy since it still feels like I was just starting to create my blog and had no clue what to do. Now the second week I have a better understanding on how Digital Storytelling works and I am begging to begin my brand to be “discovered”. The […]

I chose this assignment because I love using Pinterest, and I want to travel to other countries and experience other places outside the country where I have lived my whole life.

This week, I started out by experimenting with the layout of the blog. I added a twitter feed and an about me page, as well as deleted some unnecessary side options like “recent comments” and “archives” I completed 3 daily creates this week! My first Daily Create was in response to the prompt “Create some … Continue reading "Week 2 Summery"

DONT GO CHASING WATERFALLS!! I chose the song “Waterfalls” by TLC. As soon as I read the details for this assignment I immediately thought of this photo from a last summer. A few of my best friends go to Virginia Tech, so over the summer our whole friend group went and stayed at their apartment …

Archives This a choice from the Writing Assignment bank. It was an easy choice for me because while I don’t dream that often, when I do dream it is often a recurring one. The one that immediately comes to mind is probably my personal version of a pretty common dream. The whole dream takes place at the high school I went to: I get to school, walk up to my locker, and all of I sudden I realize that I can’t remember the combination! I go to the guidance counselor to get the combination for some reason and then I […]

While looking through the required to do for the week,  I came upon the last task which was ” Building Your Participation ” or specifically spending on my blog. I find this interesting that this would be a more advanced form of participation because I never even thought of doing it this way. Responding on […]

Odell does it again!

  For this week, I created a variety of medium to express my ideas using GIPHY, Paint, Pinterest, and YouTube. The hardest part was the work execution and balancing time in between. As a novice, it took a while for me to decipher what did work and what did not work (for example, I did not know how to combine …
