ITM future reference

ITM had major progress today, but i will explain it more on friday.

This is a site where i got a bit of HTML.
http://www.quackit.com/html/codes/html_text_box_code.cfm

Just so I can say in my folio I got the HTML from someone else.
Seeing as I don't particularly want to learn it all. However, I did tweak it. I know a bit atleast.

yep.

Week 16

I KNOW. I forgot.
Not at the top of my game lately. You know all of the finding yourself teenage stuff. Yeah.

ITM. Has had minimal progress on my actual major. just a few ideas thrown around here and there. Also been doing a few pages and aspects of my website. I am now about 85% sure I am going to use my favourite website. I may have to get some feed back from people to make it definite.
I am also worried about the program i am using. Im worried they will stop giving fortnightly updates right before i hand it in. I guess ill just have to make copies.
I also got my industry case study back the other day..... Yeah. Not saying much about that, just dissapointed. ALOT.
In itm classes I feel like such a nerd and goodie two shoes. I was the only one who had done their homework and I provided the majority of the answers. Is it wrong for me to feel like those who didnt do the homework shouldnt get the info?? Whether you do it or not, you get the same info in the end. its just sucky.
ANYWAY, if i wanted to talk feelings i should have made another blog dedicated to feelings.
Heres my fav website, still need some changes but its getting there.

DRAMA has had GREAT improvement. I went through it with my teacher and she helped me with a few parts. I am really getting the jist of it now. AND i am LOVING it!! I am so excited. However, there are two other girls (so that 3 out of 4 girls) doing comedy. So im worried about 'competition' and you know, not being the funniest monologue, i dont want to be the one who doesnt stand out.

ART is pretty good atm. Havent had any amazing ideas. I think i just keep limiting myself.

Week 15

Im just gonna get straight to it.

ITM. I have finished and handed in my industry case study. I am so glad I can focus on my major now. Its due the 13th of August.

DRAMA. Is going really well, i have made many changes and i think it is picking up. I thought it was rather dry at first but with the changes it is working.

ART I ended up getting a band 5 for my art project!! YAY.
now for my major. meh.

Week 14-Happy birthday to me! XD

So it was my birthday yesterday.
yeah.

ITM hasnt had much progress. I have been focusing on my Industry Case study that is due this friday. Its been a busy week.

DRAMA is good. We went to see the best HSC performances and works the other day and MAN is the standard HIGH!
I know that with my monologue, ill have to make it dramatic, not really realistic. So ill keep working on it.

ART is ok. Im waiting for my marks from the last project.

happy hscing

Week 13

Back to school, Back to dancing, Back to the busy life.
I would go mad if it weren't for dancing.

ITM. Adobe Muse is working REALLY well for me. I have made about three practise websites on it and figured a few things out. I just have to research about how to make a store with a 'trolley', and flash. I may have to know a few html stuff for the advanced things. I have also been working on advertisements, only the still ones though, not video atm. Ill need to get onto that.
I also finally got the questions back from my industry case study. She was confused about a few and suggested that I ask my father who is also apart of the company, due to the fact that she has a whole stack of new clients and is really busy. Well, at least I know the company I researched is popular, thats good.
The following is a practise website. I dunno if I love it. I love the font, the drop shadow/ paper effect. But I think the background is too crowded. I am a student and I AM learning.

DRAMA is going really well. I know half of my monologue now and have some idea as to what the character is. She is a British Australian who is in her early 20's. She has lost her job and is on the verge of a break down. I can't think of anything else I have done at the moment, ill make another post if I can think of it.



ART is 50/50. I handed in the work and was really proud of what I put together. However, my teacher said a few things that I took fairly strongly and I started to feel a bit upset that all that effort wasn't good enough. Although, once she saw the quality of the other artworks in the class, she was sort of saying the same things, but much nicer. She eventually said the concept is a band 6, but the actual work is a high band 4/low band 5.
I now know that she was being , i guess, 'harsh' to give us an idea of the standard of band 6 major works. She started talking about how the box should be made of wood and the glue should not be seen etc. I will take these into consideration, I did take a few into consideration before she said them, but I felt personally it wasn't the right time. I dunno. It happens. I got to get used to that if I want to get into a design business.
Theres just a lot happening at the moment and I can get rather emotional and take things the wrong way. Im working through it. I'll be good.

Breathing is always a good alternative.
