Journal - What photo editing tool(s) have you used so far on your 5 photos project? Do you like the tool? Is it easy to use? Hard to use? What's good about it? Whats bad about it? Give a detailed review of the tool.
The photo editing tool that I used is called fotoflexer.com I really like this tool because there are many different options on how you can edit your picture. Personally I think it is easy to use because everything is organized and laid out nicely on the screen when editing a photo. You have the choice to upload a photo from your own Facebook which can help many people in the future. I don't think it is hard to use. The good thing about it is that on the top you have all the options on editing your photo and they're all laid right out on the top of the screen. I haven't found anything bad about this photo editing tool yet.

What are the pros and cons to photo editing? What are some examples of when photo editing is fun and appropriate? When can photo editing be inappropriate or too much?
Some pros for photo editing could be making something look better on the picture than it really is in person. For example, food or clothing. Another pro could be to improve the quality of a picture. If a nice picture that you want to keep turns out blurry or if there is red eyes in the picture, with photo editing you can easily make the picture clear and take out red eyes. A con for photo editing could be that the picture turns out with too much edit and it looks fake. For example, if a girl gets senior pictures and if they are really photo edited, it's really clear that the picture was edited to make her look better. Personally, photo editing it fun when making collages with different filters, fonts, texts, and colors. An example when photo editing can be too inappropriate is making a picture of someone look fake. Another con would be that photo shop is too strong to cover up or change something to look different in the picture.

Journal – What is your favorite web tool that we have used in class so far this year? Why is it your favorite web tool? What do you like about it? How can you use it again in the future?
My favorite web tool that we've used so far in class is Prezi. Prezi is my favorite web tool because it provides you with many different background themes, and the transitions in the Prezi are really cool. The thing I like about Prezi is that there are many different options for themes, fonts, colors, and transitions. You can add or delete different bubbles in your Prezi. I think Prezi makes a presentation ten times more interesting to watch.

Journal- What did you do this weekend?
Friday night I went to a party and it was really fun. Saturday morning I woke up and went to go ride, the weather was perfect for it. I made sure to ride outside that day because the weather was so nice unlike on Friday night. After I rode I went out to lunch with my grandma at Cheesecake Factory. I love my grandma a lot and any time I get to spend with her is awesome. Then, Saturday night Claire and I went mudding in her Jeep out in Belton with some friends. The mud was pretty dry though so we didn't get her car too dirty which sucked. Then on Sunday I went to the Chief's game with a bunch of friends and it was fun to be there when they won!

Journal - What did you learn from the Ted Talk yesterday? Did you find it interesting or accurate? Explain.
After watching the Ted Talk yesterday, I didn't realize how much of an impact technology really has on people till hearing some of the things she had to say. I thought a lot of what she said was accurate and some was not. I thought her whole idea on being "together alone" was very interesting and I never thought of that when I would be on my phone with family or friends in one room. The only idea that she had that I didn't understand was the connection-isolation. When she said that it's bad that kids nowadays want to text instead of talk is bad, I agreed with her because when children grow up using nothing but texting to communicate they don't learn the basic social and communication skills they need in their everyday lives.

Journal - Tell me about your Homecoming weekend (whether you went to the activities or not!). Tell me about what you did over the weekend.
I did not go to homecoming because I was out of town. Even if I was in town I still wouldn't go. Personally, homecoming is pointless. I was at a horse show riding all day everyday while I was gone.
