My Project

For my "Make a website for someone" project mostly likely will be Sculpture Club.
i don't know how the boss wants his project to look but if he let's me create it, I'll try and make my best site to date. I might even try to put in some type of flash player... (if i ever figure out how).

Pirates of Silicon Valley

Microsoft and Apple: two of the most powerful computer companies in the world. Both companies were created from scratch by two unknown individuals, one from Berkley, and the other from Harvard. Their way to the top has been filled with deceit, strict leadership, and ingenuity. I have been tasked with sending a job application to one of these companies. Who will I work for?

If I had to work for Microsoft or Apple I would work with Microsoft. I don’t know why I would work for either company if money and success were not factors. But if I absolutely have to (which is the case), I would choose Microsoft because of the employee discounts. Since Microsoft technology works the best for gaming and programming, my main two uses for a computer. Microsoft technology is also the most common software around the world, so I would get further use value from it if I ever travel to conventions in Tokyo. If the movie was relatively accurate, I would want to work for Mr. Gates because he was not as mean as Mr. Jobs.

Who are these people?!?!?
I discovered a site today called Wordle (yes i claim the discovery for myself for i descend from Mr. Columbus).

The site takes makes interesting pictures based on the words put in the the space. Whatever words appear most show up the biggest in the picture, like this Myles character. Once you create your picture, you can click the randomize button until you find a style you like.

Whoever made this picture probably pressed ctrl + print screen in order to copy whatever was on his/her screen (probably an enlarged view of the picture they just created). Then he/she most likely went to photoshop and cropped all the stuff besides the picture itself.


Tada, they have a interesting picture!

Showchoir...*sigh*

The last day of the ISAS (Independent Schools Association of the Southwest) is usually slow and it's not unheard of for schools to skip it entirely. This year we couldn't leave early (forgive the font changes....something went horribly wrong while typing this) because we, the choir, had to perform our Showchoir dances at 9:30 in the morning.

Now (yippie it's back to normal...for now) we were in the same time slot as some other big name schools so most of the people who came to our event were not able to make it into their preferred event. So they started off a little irritated to say the least. Mixed Choir went first and they "warmed up" the crowed for us. Then it was our turn.

There was a decent audience: about 30 people came. i could tell by their faces that they were not blown away by the performance of the underclassmen. We started our first number, "Lean on Me"-Glee. We came in with little practice, technical difficulties, and about 1/4 of the cast present and accounted for. I couldn't help but laugh at the very displeased faces i saw out in the crowed. When we finished our first number, i saw the hopeful looks in their eyes, but it wasn't over yet.

Our final song was another Glee song, "Don't Stop Believin' ". The faces grew more displeased at hearing an all-time hit get murdered. I sang loud enough for people to hear me, but i was singing base, and the base part was nowhere near the melody. After a few glares, i decided to switch to the melody. The song finished and the applause were loud and happy as we left the stage.

We made sure to leave out the back and out of sight. I did enjoy the faces though.

Oh well.
