Final post

Hmm let’s talk about CT 101. This being my first year in york i didn’t really expect a class like this most of my classes didn’t really have a social media presence in it and Were mostly on textbooks that are recyled from year to year. Ct 101 allowed me to express myself in a way I never thought I would using memes. I was shocked when I heard this at first since I just thought of memes being something you send in a text when you don’t know what to say back to who you’re texting. Or just putting it under an instagram post never doing assignments about them. CT 101 was breath of fresh air if it wasn’t for this class i would never know how to copy and paste, sad right but it’s the truth, i never knew how to copy and paste on my computer or even generate my own blog or website even though it was changeling it was fun to do out of the normal stuff and master it with the help of my professor.

What grade did i earn in this class to be honest i would give myself a 65 or 70 ,you may wonder why not a 80,90, or 100 i don’t deserve to have a high grade to be honest i do my work and complete it ,but i don’t come to class and even when i do come to class, i don’t really participate but the whole class doesn’t, i feel like i didn’t go to class often because it wasn’t a very funny environment for me, i’m already antisocial myself and the class environment just made it worse, that’s why i stayed home most of the time.

                                                                                                        What I did enjoy about this class is that it was different it was about expressing yourself using what are new normal is technology, and using images and memes to express how we feel without having to really write it down and using social media which was my favorite part ,cause that’s all we consume now , I will use my new found such as copy n pasting and using more memes in my daily life especially the memes with my friends and copy  n paste with my assignments .                        .

                                                                                                 Know let’s talk about my website to be honest it will be like a 50/50 percent I up keep my website it will be a fun way for me to just write what I’m thinking or my own fashion blog post . If I do up keep my website I will try to post a topic of fashion , hair  or any drama that is happening  on social media . Or try to build a website of my own were I can blog and sell products .

                                                                                                             Now let me introduce you to my own website http://Mscitycindrella.com  Let’s get a round of applause , my website is just the inside of a girl from the city me , I will be reviewing clothes , hair  giving out advice and just being myself on my website , building a relationship with my viewers and just having a big sister relationship with my girls.      .

                                                                                        When you first go on my website this is the first page my intro just giving a little inside of what my website is about and what is included.

                                                                                            This is my first blog post in this episode we are talking about hair and why I think wigs are a good protective hairstyle and why you should start wearing them .

                                                                                             This is my second blog post bringing in the social media aspect of tik tok and giving a report of a situation that happened and my opinion of what happened.                                                                                .

                                                                                              This is where you’ll be able to see or look up my blog post if you want to look at them again or just want to browse .                                                                                                  Know let’s talk about the building process of my website I would say the most frustrating part for me was trying to add on the pages which I had to email professor for beside that it was very easy to custom my website I just wish I knew how to add videos on it  but I will learn since this is my first website and I will definitely be making more in the future .

assignment 7

some potential names I would consider using for my website would be ,MISS WORLDWIDE , Too icy,  Get in with me ,SSJ 101, NAVIGATE THREW THE STORM, beauty with In ,West Indi ,ME VS ME ,LIPGLOSS AND GLOW  ,these would be good for my website names since my website would be a girly world that’s all about me , from the activates I like to do, such as makeup, hair , fashion ,  gossip  and just be a  girly girl in general my page will help if you don’t know what to wear to a party or if you want to try something new our out of your comfort zone.  It would also feature a store where ill put links to some new hairstylist you may want to try food places around the city and or clothes.

                                                                                                                         some social media apps I will feature on my website are tic Tok , instagram and Pinterest , I feel as though these are what I use the most and where the main portion of my ideas will come from , then make it my own .

RECAP

For me I don’t really know how im doing in  my ct101 class to be honest .I had some trouble making my blog and when I finally made it, it was hard for me to catch up ,the work isn’t hard ,I just don’t have any motivation to do my work to be honest , I still push myself cause I need my credits ,so to be honest im just trying to push threw this class and all my other classes.

 

what I learned and retained the most is I can express myself without really having to use my words and use images instead  , if I don’t feel like writing a whole paragraph on how I feel. I can just use a meme instead it’s like a piece of art that says my feelings for me .

Some new skills I have learned to do is copy and paste on my computer don’t laugh but I never learned how to copy and paste on my computer fr I never had to use my computer until I had this course that forced me to learn to add my gifs to my assignments , if I never had this course I would never know how to copy n paste .        

 What I know about this class that I didn’t know before is that I can have a class  that isn’t just about books and im being able to use outside sources from social media that are current and fun to me. I wouldn’t really say im missing any assignments right now I’m just trying to catch up on my assignments and make sure I don’t fall behind on them.                                                                                                       

To be honest I don’t really comment on my classmates blog post that much anymore it’s like exactly when I finish my work I just want to close my computer and go to sleep . But I’ll try my best to start commenting more frequently .      

Of course everyone wants to maintain an A plus but to be honest I think I maintain an c plus or an b to be honest I say this since my attendance is low but I still do my work even if I don’t go to class.

Participating during class time I would say I do 50/50 some days I do some days I don’t I guess its just how I feel depending on the day and how interested I am in the lesson .                                                                                               

How I would make my improvements would be commenting more on my class mates post, and make sure im consistent with going to class .

are memes art

are memes art to me memes are  art but not at the same time when I think about art. I think about a museum , a canvas were you paint your muse or what you feel not just taking a video and putting a caption on it  .                                  when searching for are memes art https://spokenvision.com/can-memes-be-considered-art/.        (link 1)                                                                                                                   Showcases why some consider that memes are art but not at the same time  memes do have colorful images  like some of the real art were use too , around the 1950s they used popular media as inspo but also states memes have no artistic value so how can it be considered art with no value , and theres always a new meme popping up every second how is this art with a new one coming out every second no one will know the original piece .and get bored very quickly https://drippingquills.com/t/can-memes-be-considered-art/14328   (link 2)                                                                                                              Memes are here to stay but are they art. to me there not there just little clips of videos that express how your feeling in the moment ,to me memes are going to stay which is good but ,at one point there going to die out .Memes are a good way to express yourself with friends or family but in a professional setting nope .If your calling out of work would you send your boss a meme ,how would they react ,imagine applying for a job with a meme do you think your getting that job .Memes can be used in a conversation but a whole story no .

Week 4

my first day of ct101 I was kind of scared this is my first year at York and most of my classes all are just text book on text book and I thought this class was going to be the exact same thing .

                                                                                   but I still had hope .                                                                                                                                    now when professor was talking about the course all my worries went away immediately finally a break from text books and having some fun for once  hearing about the course I felt some excitement and joy finally I have some something where I can just write what I want .

                                                                       ct 101 does not compare to any of my other classes I have way more freedom in this  class and don’t have to stick to one rule I can express myself .

                                                                                                             the creative potentials of this class is very far and easy everyone can express there self with just an image and a caption but also be creative from using art pieces or content from social media movies or even tv shows .

week 1 Internet happy

we can go on and on for days about what makes me happy in the media from movies to sitcoms to comedy shows .Tik Tok  has been my number one for this week , I been watching a lot of Nara smith cooking stuff from scratch for her kids and husbands like cereal from scratch and marshmallows ,I want to try making cereal and marshmallows from scratch but it would be a epic fail in my opinion but hey you can’t not it till you try it for yourself , another thing is kai caneat streams I don’t miss one stream theres always something new and interesting he puts me on to a lot of other streamers food and cultures .
