Instead of having a final exam, we have a final group project describing the places that each member believes is their favorite place on campus. Mine is Beaver Stadium during a football game. As far as the project, today we recorded each person describing the place and why it's their favorite. Next we have to have pictures and put the project together. I'm looking forward to going to the football game on Saturday and taking pictures of the game for the project.
Let me begin with, I'm horrible at keeping up with blogs and I get sick a lot. With that said, I missed last week because I was sick, the week before was a big group meeting where I got a t-shirt for answering a question. Once again, on the 28th of October, I was sick - thanks Diabetes. On the 21st we got into pairs and videoed each other to set up for the lesson the next week for video editing. That same day I talked to my teacher about the requirements for the freshman seminar and learned the things we have to do. So here are a few of those that I've already done:
All of these things I have done. For number 1, well this blog actually. Number 2, when the library had it's open house I went, I even go a water bottle and some other things from it. Number 3, on Halloween I went with some friends and saw The Rocky Horror Picture Show as well as I went to the haunted house the night before (I did ask about it and my teacher isn't sure since it wasn't educational, but it didn't say that it had to be educational). Number 4, though I have to ask, yesterday morning I went to a event at the HUB about Update fully when I have all the information. My PSU 009 class has to be my favorite, we get to take out cameras and other equipment and basically learn. Last week we took the cameras out and did a "Fall Foliage" tour. Being able to see the seasons turn here at Penn State, is breathtaking. After some time outside, we came back inside to go over some Photoshop techniques, like adjusting the black and white levels, cropping, and adjusting the overall size of the photo. Here are two of my pictures (sorry that's all I can post): So my name is Alejandra but I go by Allie. I’m from North Carolina and one of the reasons I moved was to get away from the heat. My goal is to major in Photojournalism with a minor in Music Tech. I originally took this class based on the suggestion of a counselor when I signed up for my classes, however now I’m actually looking forward to going to class. In the past science hasn’t been my strong suit nor did it interest me very much – hence why I’m not majoring in it – though this class grabbed my attention from the first day. I look forward to what the semester has in store. Along with writing these blog post, I also had to create a blog for my freshmen seminar so I decided to have a blog for all my classes. You can visit it here. For my birthday I got VIP tickets to see Fall Out Boy on their Boys of Zummer tour. This is a picture of the band along with me and my best friend. A week ago I started classes at Penn State as a freshman. Those classes include a freshman seminar about photography where I have to blog about the class and when we meet for large group sessions. So I've decided to go ahead and blog about the rest of my classes.
As I've stated, classes started a week ago, but at Penn State the first week is known as Syllabus week where most of the time class ends early - after getting the class's syllabus - and not a lot of straight to lessons are given. The result is not a lot to blog about currently. I will say one thing though, part of my SC200 class is having to write a blog each week so after posting on the class blog, I will post the same writing of the week here along with a link to that blog. |
