CT 101 Final Blog

 

 

Thanks to CT 101 I can do much stuff, I am thankful for the class to be free and stress relieve. Is my first time having a class like this, so I have abuse that freedom from the class; I believe that I am maintaining a B-, I did all the assignments, but they were not on time; I took a while for those post. I think that punctuality plays a role in grades, and because I was late for almost everything,, a B will be good; but that still is greedy.

I have about the websites, I still get confused with all the design of it, but I am trying to make it look nice. For my website, I still do not know what I would like to focus on, I do not have something that I do every day that I would like to share. I like art, but I do not do it every day; I do not have something that passionates me, which makes me excited. And like to be like that, to be passionate is tiresome. So, that is why I do not know what kind of website I want. But I did my first sketch on a computer, so I think sharing that, for now, is good.

Things that i know are about the website, I never had the need to create a page on the internet and i did not know that to keep a page you need to pay i thought it was free. and now i think that to know about websites can be useful if you are in design.

about the website i am not confident engougth to make sure that i would expand it. but i am grateful with what i know now. And i am going to miss this class, hopefully more people take this class because it helps to be in classes were your feelings as student are not being ignore.

 

Mid-Semester Reflection

1. in CT101, I do not have a clue of what grade should I get. I am behind in all the posts, the class already is doing the own pages and I am stuck in week 7. I wanted to be always at the right time, but one day that couldn’t go to class and at work star putting more work hours at my schedule, I was happy because I need the money; but my grades would be affected, I knew that. To be honest, I was careless because this is the one class that gives freedom to the student, I did not want to abuse that freedom.

me when i have to do anything:

 

2. Thanks to this class, I have learned to use some apps that I never thought that I will use. For example, the 3D builder, that I use for the assignment of week 6.  it was difficult to use because I know nothing about those apps, but playing around I find it entertained. I did many attempts because I did not know how to correct my mistakes and how to manage the movement of the objects, it was a difficult app to use, so I just show in my post the one that looks good.

Project Flexibility – CT101 Digital Storytelling (cuny.edu)

3. I do not know if I am skilled at it but I can say I am getting better. This is my first time doing context for blogs. I do not like to share what I write with others if I write something is for myself; my problem is that when I write at the moment I think that they seem normal, but when after a week I decide to read it again is full of mistake and embarrassing stuff. but since in this class we have to write a lot I got used to seeing those things and do not feel like I want to erase everything. so I am getting better at writing posts.

4. My performance in this class is not the best, I never participate in classes, is still difficult to ask or share ideas. but I try my best with my post to compensate for my performance in class.

5. before taking the class I knew about memes and gifts, however, I never tried to make one myself.  I am not into making them, but I enjoy just watching them. People that make memes are people with a great sense of humor and is really surprising how 99 % of the time the memes mention stuff that had to happen to me or stuff that I think but I do not share.

6. all my post look the same, and  I do not know what to change the.

Project Flexibility

The first prom that I choose is something that I think I can do, not perfect, but I like to do it.

I started with the small things on the first floor. this is a house for just one person.

then I found that instead of use rectangles for the couch, table, or anything inside; I can insert the object:

I couldn’t insert much stuff because the app did not have it. But the table, lamp, and sink are from the app.

The first fool is petite. The kitchen and living room are in one rectangle, the same as the bedroom and bathroom.

I am not really good at creating stuff without reference, so I had a hard time thinking about doing it.

Is a very simple design, I just had to put together pictures from Pinterest and add the letters saying Happy Earth Day.  For this, I had to use two apps sketchbook from windows, Pinterest, and PowerPoint. I use PowerPoint to take out the backgrounds.

I had fun doing both projects.

 

Are memes Art?

I do think that memes are art. We can express many emotions with them and relate those feeling with friends.

I like all my classes, but there are many occasions when I would prefer not to be there. It becomes so boring when the professor talks. I can hear for long times of periods, but if I am not interested in what they say, my mind goes away, and I cannot understand any word from the professor. Theories of how everything star is boring, at the end I would not remember anything. CT101 is not focused on explaining without stopping. The students’ interaction is more than in other classes; I am not particulate eager to talk but to hear others talk is fun. I like to have something to hear, I also like complete silence but I realized that when I am complete silent I start making noises unconsciously.

this last meme represents me today, the last day of spring break. I did nothing but read comics and go out. I do not regret how I spend my break.

Gift post

On the first day of CT 101, when I hear that our cameras should be on, I panic.

I’m not particularly eager to show my face, so I felt trouble with that. When I hear that we should talk as much as possible in class and that this was an interactive class, I thought about my communication skills that are none plus my social anxiety, thought why I would choose a sociable class. But I do not hate it, it is a comfortable class to be in, and I like the assignments.

still, when the professor says who wants to volunteer to show their post, I am always like:

INTERNET HAPPINESS

The internet did make me happy since I was 12.  The day that my grandfather gave us a computer for the first time, I always watched Inuyasha and different animes, and from then to now, I am still watching anime. Currently, I am reading webtoons, mangas, and manhwa. one of my favorites manhwas is Cheese in the trap.

It is a long manhwa, so it got four seasons. It has a K- drama, is shorter than the original, and some stuff might change, but it also was good. I will recommend it if you like romance. It is one of my favorite genres. I read this in 2019, but I love it, so I wanted to share it.

A year ago I discovered a mobile game. You can play it on a computer and PS4. I have never been a massive fan of mobile games but this game caugth my attention, and is the only one I play. It is called Genshin Impact by Mihoyo.

It is a Chinese game, and it has many voice translations, so it is easy to understand. It had ganed popularity around this year, it was nomiated to one of the best mobil game, and best role playing game. I am not sure who the winner was, but I think that it was among us

The game’s design is just incredible, and the quests are fun; also, each character had cool elements. The game develops with two main characters: Lumine and Ather, siblings from another world. They got separated by someone. I do not remember if it was a god or just someone with higher power than them. Then the story starts. You have to choose which twin you want to be while finding your lost twin. It is a fun journey

It is a fun game, and I have made some friends through the game. They are friendly people. I will recommend that your phone has a lot of space and you have a good internet connection.
those are the things that make me happy all the time.
