Final Blog Entry

My experience in this class has been educating to say the least. This quarter we covered many different areas of both the MAC and the PC computers. I found this class very helpful when it came to learning on the MAC’s. Honestly before this class I didn’t have much experience on them. I also learned many new programs on the PC that I don’t normally use, such as, publisher and excel. Now that this class is basically to an end, I feel very accomplished with everything we have done. I must say we did a lot of work in this class. I think that at the time I felt like it was possibly too much. Today, however, I see that overall I am walking away knowing how to understand and operate the MAC and PC computers
.
In this class I believe that I was a hard worker. I wasn’t absent once nor tardy. I did all of my assignments to the full potential that I could. Also, I turned them in on time! I worked through the chapters when asked and looked back over them for the midterm. When we were asked to work in groups I tried very hard to keep the group on task yet having fun. Overall, I’d say I worked very hard to receive the grade that I have gotten so far, which is an “A”, and I intend to keep it that way.

Inside A Donut

My experience with YouTube has probably been limited to what it can do. If I am ever on YouTube I am searching for lyrics, music videos, dance videos, TV and movies. In the past, I have added my own videos just to see how YouTube works. Setting up an account is simple. But as far as using it goes I just save my favorites.

YouTube has definitely become a normal conversation in my life. It’s always, “well let’s post it to YouTube” or” have you seen that video of ‘such and such’ on YouTube?” The most ridiculous videos are able to be found on YouTube. It seems the more stupid they are the more popular they are just because stupidity is apparently funny.

In my experience YouTube is also a good way to get whatever your skill is out there. I know a lot of dancers that put up their videos to get noticed by the celebrity choreographers. In many cases, I have seen this work out well for them. It is also a good memory for whom ever in the long run. I’m sure it is the same for people who want to become a singer, musician, photographer, and of course becoming a film maker.
