Is it just me?

The class calendar is kind of confusing to me...aside from the assignment notations I CAN now see...at times it appears "blocked out" in red and is unreadable. Is it just me? 

I FINALLY got things squared away with the glitch on my college email account...THAT was not just me! The guys in the tech department fixed whatever the issue was with the system not recognizing me!

On a positive note, just for fun, I added two gadgets to my blog...music and a site meter! I am working out the details on my class presentation for our next face to face class meeting. You could say Ken assigned me a "unique" artist to present.

Chocolate Links...I mean...Delicious Bookmarks!

Okay so it is not enough that I must journal my feelings for this class via this blog...now I must share the cyber places I visit also!

Hmmm...when I think of the word d-e-l-c-i-o-u-s my first thought (like must females) is CHOCOLATE!!!

As pleasing as the word is to my palate, I must now use it to bookmark my research information. So as tough as it is for me to focus on research instead of something from the cocoa family...I am going to try hard to direct my thoughts toward this artist I was personally assigned (Thanks ALOT Ken!). So off to collect and analyze adequate information on Michael Mandiberg (oh my word - do you see that his initials are MM - like m & m's) FOCUS FOCUS Terri!

I am going to try hard to hyperfocus in class and purpose to really use this application for my artist assignment over the next two weeks! Let's see what I learn or shall I say...at least "sample" from the candy box.

I must be getting old!

Between trying to get into my college email account and reading articles in fine print...the literal and figurative headaches of being a student at my age are becoming more of a reality. (Not complaining - simply commenting!)

Computer Life

In my opinion, to those who have encountered computers, these have become a necessary part of everyday life! Furthermore, the digital age has ushered in such a plethora of information that we are bombarded with moment by moment; this serves as enlightenment to some and a grave distraction to others. As a home-schooling mother, student, photographer, business owner and very social being (who is an old timer of an ADHD being)...it has come to be a necessity in most all areas of my daily life! I am not sure what the future holds for the computer but I do have a list of things I hope it does not dictate as far as personal freedom and privacy goes.
