The first article I read was Footprints in the Digital Age by Will Richardson.  The first thing I learned from the article was that no matter how much you think you are, you really aren’t in control of your web footprint.  However, you can take measures to increase the control you have and to try […]

In class today we tweaked and decided on our theme for the website.  We also set up a meeting to do some scans at the James Monroe Museum tomorrow.  We really liked the theme we picked at first, except that the menu bar was on the left side and we wanted it on the right. […]

Secured the use of some recording equipment today so I can start trying to set up interviews with Jarod and Scott for information about the objects we will be 3d scanning.  Hopefully I’ll be able to get some done within the next 2 weeks.

Making a transition with my website from the Digital Storytelling phase to my personal blog phase and now it’s time to incorporate the marketing portion. This is just to to notify readers that the posts to follow will relate to my Principles of Marketing course. “He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.” -Muhammad Ali  Xoxo Twerk

A friend of mine posted an image on facebook which included texts: 1. When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back […]

The flu is going around, and I caught it.  After being home sick for two days (something to do with being quarantined for 24 hours after getting rid of a fever, even though I still have a mild one?  Doesn’t matter, the point is that I was sicker than the past two times…) and returning […]

I’m taking Adventures in Digital History because I am a history major and thinking about minoring in Digital Studies.  I’ve taken Intro to Digital Studies and Digital Storytelling and enjoyed both of those classes so I figure the major should be pretty interesting.  I also like working with technology, the 3d printer which I’ll use […]

It has been a long time. I’m almost through my second month of being a preschool aide – things happen quickly.  One moment I’m volunteering in the elementary school with a hope that I can help out in other areas as needed, and the next moment I’m employed by the preschool and daycare.  It has […]

Making a gif can be difficult if you don’t know what you’re doing, but if you do it is a pretty quick process.  The first thing you need to do is finding the clip you want to use, on youtube for example.  Next you need to download the video clip using a website like keepvid.com […]

The other day we read an article on copyright and fair use.  That topic came up in an episode of Shark Tank I was watching the other day.  One guy had a clothing company and the big thing it had was a pocket for your mp3 player and it had a little hole for your […]

Hello! This is my first digital studies post

In honor of the turning of seasons I have been experimenting with making warm beverages since there are not hot cocoa packets lying around.  As you can see I’m really accurate with measurements. Mint Cocoa 1 spoon unsweetened cocoa 2-3 spoons sugar 1/4 spoon mint extract Rich Cocoa 2 Tablespoon cocoa powder 4 Tablespoon sugar […]

One of my favorite, worth waiting for, recipes is this gem that I found to make Oyako Donburi.  What exactly is oyako donburi?  It literally means parent and child, because it includes the chicken and the egg.  This savory dish is perfect for cold rainy days while sitting next to the fireplace. (I have put […]

It’s been a while since I have written anything for Aloha Fridays (suggestions, anyone?) so I decided it was time to start sharing some of my favorite songs and talk about them! One of the songs that I have always viewed as quintessentially “Hawai’i” was the Moloka’i Slide. I like the sand spreading out to […]

I have been toying around with recipes that involve tossing freshly cooked noodles with anything and everything I can find.  My most recent concoction is a spicy chicken variant.  This recipe works best with a one pound box of whole wheat linguine noodles and regular spaghetti noodles.  Any thinner noodles and the toppings get lost, […]

There’s been a lot on my mind and no place to put it, and this blog has been lacking content for a while anyway… So let’s begin the nonsense! October 1, 2013 I’ve lost my spark, I’ve lost my joy. I don’t know how to pray anymore. I feel like a failure. I want to […]

In response to today’s Daily Create (648): Notice the ground beneath your feet. Document with an enhanced photograph. Based on exercises in Keri Smith’s “How to be an Explorer of the World”. See http://kerismith.com. I’m currently staying in a home where the homeowners put in their own pine flooring. It’s beautiful and it is comfortable […]

Final semester of photos.                       Thoughts?  Criticisms?  Questions?

Thank goodness for spam filters!  Here are some of my favorites that have come across my spam box.  It’s just a whole lot of fluff so while you scroll across I put in bold for you the parts that I found particularly interesting.  I have italicized any remarks and opinions I had about the comment. […]

I haven’t been very good about taking photos or even sharing my photos, so here are some of my favorites from September to December of 2012.  Although it’s not very many pictures I hope you can find something to make you smile, and if you don’t smile tell me why.               […]

I played soccer for about ten years, leaving the sport in high school before entering varsity.  I’ve been feeling a bit nostalgic lately and so I thought I’d share with you some of the musings I’ve had. Avoiding the Yellow Card: Keep Your Nails Trimmed One of the silliest little rules I hated was to […]

The other night at the dinner table it was brought up that I resembled Aunt Ethel.  Who exactly is Aunt Ethel?  She’s the great-aunt of one of the people I am staying with.  What exactly is an Aunt Ethel?  She is a quirky, never-married woman with a heart of service – a caregiver until her […]

From The Daily Create: Sit for a few minutes in a quiet space. Write about what you hear. (Based on exercises in Keri Smith’s “How to be an Explorer of the World”. find more creative ideas at http://kerismith.com.) Who am I kidding, I haven’t sat in pure silence in a long time.  I can selectively […]
