THING 4!

On my Flickr account I created I like how you can share your pictures online with others, or you can make it private to only allow certain people to see them. However, today with technology growing more and more every day makes some of these websites like Flickr a website that's not worth building an account for. For example, now on Facebook you can download any picture that you have access to and download it to your computer, smart phone, etc.. and then you can do whatever with it. Also, if you don't pay for a Flickr Pro account then you have a limited amount of pictures or videos that you can upload to the website, but for Facebook you don't pay anything! Flickr has some cool options and features to it, but I don't see me using it in the future, for I could use another website, or even build my own where parents and children in my class can access for pictures and much more.

Things 2

This is my second time to create a blog from summer trip and I love doing this because you can basically tell whatever you want to about whats going on in your life or what all your doing on a trip or anything like that. I know this last summer when I was coaching basketball camps in France and Spain, I posted everything that I was learning (language, and culture) and from the coaching perspective as well. I will add a link to my post from this summer at the end of this post that you can go and look at it if you want. But I really enjoy learning how to post, and I can't wait to learn even more at the end of this semester.

Thing 1

While I watched the 7 & 1/2 habits of learning, I could easily tell which habits I liked and which ones I didn't. Habit #1 was the one I definitely didn't like, for when I saw that this goal was saying to begin with an end in mind about the goals you set I knew that this is something I don't like to even think about. Because I have had the opportunity to set goals for myself since I was in 6th grade from the academic level to my desire to play basketball all year around in school and then continue to summer. So when I make a goal I make it a logistic goal that I know can be attainable within the time period I give myself, for it can be hard for me to have to go back and change a goal I already set just because I didn't reach it because I take it as failure and this can make me get a negative mind set about setting goals. However, when I saw Habit #3 I loved this habit about viewing problems as challenges. I know that everyday I wake up there is going to be some problem that I have to overcome, so when this problem or even negative thing approaches me I always look at it as a challenge rather than a problem. Because I may have a problem with my health, basketball, academically, or even life wise (family, friends, etc..), but I know that God can help me through these challenges I go through on a day-to-day basis as long as I lean on him for help.
