Warm-up Column Z

If I had the option to "Control-Z" in real life, I would "Control-Z" any mistakes that I have made. Such as those "Oh darn, that was stupid. Why in the world did I do that?" moments. For everyday use, I would for example use the "Control-Z" if I figured out that I got a problem wrong on my homework in order to correct my mistake.

Warm-up Column X

X-rays. That is my topic.
X-rays are dangerous to be around, but they can be helpful for people in need of viewing the reflected structure of bones, such as dentists, doctors, etc... X-rays can originate from outer space, and will destroy tissue and mutate cells of living things if over-exposed. That is why nobody likes X-rays.

Warm-up Column T

The ten greatest gifts that any parent can give their children are:

1. Life, obviously.
2. Positive Reinforcement.
3. A warm, loving atmosphere.
4. Respect.
5. Freedom with terms.
6. A nice place to live.
7. Good nutrition.
8. Discipline (the good kind.)
9. Protection.
10. Education.

Warm-up Column M

If I were to invent a machine to do something that I don't like to do, it would be a self-maintaining litter box for my cat, Paul, to use. The mechanics are simple, once the box is "full", all of the unwanted "content" is drawn to a separate containment chamber below the original box is then robotically driven to the balcony and dumped off the side.

Warm-up Column E

The last thing that I was evaluated on was my 1st semester report card. I did necessarily well, a 4.0.
I wish I could've gotten better, but thanks to my late arrival to Point Loma, I wasn't eligible to take any A.P. classes. I plan on taking more than one next year if opportunity yields. It would be very nice if I could have a 4.0+, but like I said-opportunity didn't persist.

Warm-up Column D

Something that I have learned a lesson from was using the wrong tools for the job. In this case, the wrong tool was a sharp knife, and the job was to open a seal-tight jar of maraschino cherries. It happened when I was around 10 years old. I was tempted to open the jar of maraschino cherries, but was too hurried about opening the jar that I didn't take the necessary safety procedures to open the jar. Long story short I ended up stabbing the webbing of my fingers between my thumb and index finger on my left hand after attempting to poke the top of the cap over and over again. The well learned lesson from that experience was to always use the right tools for the job.

Does Anyone Know What The SCP Is?

Not too long ago a good friend of mine introduced to me an online organization with some interesting stuff on it, it was the SCP website. Essentially, the SCP website is an online collection of articles addressing strange entities whose safety protocols, descriptions, and supposed "Exploration Logs" are included in each and every article. The articles are categorized by date of completion, and are numbered in the 1-999 and 1000-2000 list. Every item or better known as "SCP" is acknowledged by the preceding acronym "SCP", a hyphen, and then the items' number. In the article, the SCPs specified containment procedure (SCP) is listed under the object class. The object class, or its' safety classification is significantly chosen by the SCPs behavior towards humans. "Safe" means that the SCP will do nothing to harm a human. "Euclid" means that the SCP behavior cannot be predicted, and do not pose any existential threat to humans as the "Keter" class do. "Keter" means that the SCP displays a vigorous threat to human life, and is actively hostile to human life.

Reflection

What have you learned about journalism or yourself?

-I have learned plenty throughout my time as a wheel student as well as part of the new-news staff. To be specific, I have learned about the value of photojournalism as a career, and how to revise and edit my work when working.

What did you like about the class?

-I really enjoyed the use of computers everyday, because the tasks were easily accomplished and were fun as well.

What did you not like about the class?

-Hmm, I can't really say what I DON'T like about the class. It was pretty much all positive experiences in this class, both wheel and news team, (I have to say that I enjoy beings on the news team much better.)

What would you like to see next semester or if you took this class again?

-In the event that I do take this class again (which I am), I would appreciate seeing more harmony and success in the class, not saying that there's not enough, but I would just like to witness a more fun and interesting class.

What grade do you think you deserve and why?

-Without being conceited, I believe that I deserve an A. The reasons being that I've put forth effort to complete all of the assigned tasks to the fullest extent, and I've abided by the rules of the class. Furthermore it is to my attention that by doing so, an A should be appointed to the person who did.
