12 weeks in 2.5

I was thinking this morning, how quickly our class has flown by. I remember registering in March and anticipating with excitement for the start.  What's incredible is the amount of information I have learned in the past two weeks. We've learned an entire semesters worth of material.  I now can build a website using HTML! We're just scratching the surface and I look forward continuing work on my site and learning more so I can design my page exactly the way I've been picturing it.  Late last night, I spent some time writing tables.  I made a demo page called homepage to play around with some of the ideas.  I'd like my page to have a tool bar either to the left or on top consisting of 5-6 different links. Bio, music page, movie page, etc.. I'm also interested in having a photo in my background which remains stationary as you scroll up or down.

Blogging is new for me and it's been interesting connecting with our classmates and sharing our thoughts. I named this blog "Sarah's Thoughts" for that particular reason.   To be able to blog anytime, anywhere is all in part of all the technological advances we've seen in the past few years. Having an Iphone, Blackberry, laptop, or any other portable device with internet connection has given us unlimited access to be able to do this. I am writing from my laptop here in NYC.  

I love that I am more comfortable with programs like Imovie and Photoshop, and I will continue developing projects for myself, other artists and my students.  Having these resources and knowing how to use them is empowering.

  1. Hi sarah! It was nice collaborating with you with our group presentation. It is pretty amazing how much materials we have covered in such a short amount of time. For me, at first the html language looks so confusing and complicated, but once everything is broken down and explained, everything seems very logical and make perfect sense. BTW, i like the tables u made for ur homepage, looks great!
