It was exciting to hear, on the first day we were going to be constructing our own website! (yikes). Every Tuesday morning was highly anticipated for me because I really looked forward to all the details behind making my very own website. Now, this doesn’t go to say that I was not interested in making a web later on, based on my progress throughout the semester but I have a confession to make.
Despite all that has happened in my life during the course of the semester, I have made a bad habit of procrastinating. As much as I know how capable I am of passing this class with flying colors, I had a hard time outside of the classroom with life getting in the way and time management. In the end, those things didn’t stop me from finishing off the semester strong. I have all of my mandatory blogs completed and my web is still in the works with the intent to be a true car enthusiast safe haven.
This class was all about creativity on a deeper level. I honestly can’t even believe that meme’s were as significant as they were from the dancing baby. And to think that blogging makes the world go round. There are blogs for everything… no exaggeration. It was truly a pleasure learning about different types of art, meme’s, and digital storytelling. The history behind blogging; everything categorized separately but they all come together to make one piece.
Considering how fascinated I am with WordPress, I can definitely see myself continuing on with my blog website. Since the semester is over, I have a lot more time to focus on my website. There are still a few features I am navigating through. If someone were to ask me what my news years resolution is for 2024… it’d be to finish my website before my birthday (in February).
My published blogs.
Assignment #7 – Mid-Semester Reflection & Domain Name Post
More than a passion… call it obsession.
Domain
My website is clear-cut. There is nothing fancy about it. My intention is to grab the attention of car lovers and car enthusiast-opinion-seekers. My website will be used as a place to express feelings based on the obsession with cars. My goal is to keep my blog site as broad and wide-ranged as possible to give car enthusiasts of other make and models to speak on behalf of the love of their life. The website will include sectors for mechanics (where I will include my experiences of getting my hands dirty), my dreams cars (where I will share the photos of the cars I want to own in my lifetime), the best interior and exterior color combination (where I will share a short descriptive list of my favorite vehicle color combos) AND my first-time experience driving a manual transmission vehicle (because a stick-shift is better than auto-shift).
Building a website is far from easy. It gets very frustrating when you don’t know what most symbols represent when editing. LOL. But the beauty of it is finding out how to navigate. I know I sound like a broken record (one last example) but I’m the person that likes to open up a box of furniture and throw the instruction manual out immediately.
