Worst movie ever...

Today was very enlightening. I liked learning about how to edit papers using MS Word 2007. I like the system. I enjoyed learning also how to review your own paper and the facility with which acceptance can be made on on revisions and editings. There were a few details that I didn't quite get because I was trying to follow along on my computer and I couldn't find the buttons as fast as Nicole, but it's okay. I'll ask if I have problems/questions.

Probably the worst movie I've ever seen is a movie called Napoleon. I actually walked out of the movie, which is the only time I've done that, I think. I didn't walk out because it was dirty, either. Just because it was stupid. I saw it when I was eleven, I think. It's about a stupid dog that runs around and has stupid "adventures." It is a little kid movie, but if any kid likes that, they should be exiled to an island far away from any form of civilization. What a stupid movie.

I understood everything in the lecture today. No problems. I thought it was really interesting to see how an efficient paragraph is constructed. It will definitely help me in my proposition. Since I had serious problems in finding sources for my paper I used an abstract in a GSA publication to identify the constituents of the paragraph. It lies below:

A glacial origin for the Mineral Fork Tillite in the Big Cottonwood Canyon area of the Wasatch Range in Utah is reaffirmed. The formation consists of two members: a lower sequence of thick, massive diamictites, with minor lensoid beds of shale-siltstone, sandstone, and conglomerate, and an upper sequence of more abundant shale-siltstone and siltstone that displays prominent bedding. The lower member is interpreted to be a sedimentary pile of tills and outwash deposited by multiple advances of continental glaciers. A grooved, polished, and striated surface marks the basal contact with the Big Cottonwood Formation. The upper member is considered to be of glaciomarine origin, mainly sediments released from icebergs and/or a floating ice shelf, along with rock flour washed from marine-based glacier margins. One major continental to marine cycle of environmental change is indicated as a result of slow but steady subsidence along a continental margin. Evidence cited here strengthens the case for a major glacial event during late Precambrian (Eocambrian) time in western North America.

What I wanted to be...

Today my moment was when I learned how to make links and start to actually build things on the page. My problem though was I don't understand how I should organize my pages and stuff. I saw the page with all the required things but I don't know what kind of page I should use to build that.

When I was little I wanted to be a police officer. I don't know why. I guess that's every little boy's dream. But that really didn't last very long. It changed alot when I was little but that's the earliest one that I remember. Cops are the coolest when you're little. I guess they still are. Especially highway patrol-men. They get to wear the coolest hats.

My favorite food.

I understood pretty well everything today. It was a pretty basic review of things I already knew so it went very well for me today.

I really love sweet and sour chicken. My mother makes it really well. I ask for that every birthday. It makes me happy. It is something that I love to eat and I would eat it every day if I could. I think I will make it tonight if I have time. It is soooooo delicious. I have nothing else to say... there is nothing else to say. Have a nice day.

Superpowers!

So this blog is probably dated for the wrong date, because, like Nicole, I do stuff late at night and I was working all day and didn't get a chance to do this in class. But I thought that it was really helpful to go over the organization of our papers. That really helped me alot in my work. I wasn't really confused at anything, though. Which is a good thing I guess, or it means that I just didn't get any of it at all.

I would have to say that if I could have any superpower, it would be either extreme strength or the ability to fly. Flying has always been the focus of my super power dreams. Though I think it would be absolutely amazing to be as strong as Superman. I could do anything. And if that was my only super power, I could play all sorts of sports and be the star at all of them. Well, football would definitely be at the top of the list. Super strength would be awesome.

Is "Leathermen" the plural of "Leatherman"?

I was thinking for a while of all the tools that exist in this world and I decided that there is no single tool that I would be. So I decided that I would be my favorite tool in the world: a leatherman. The leatherman is the most useful tool there is. There's everything on it... It's the best. I lost my leatherman on the 210 trip, but then when I got home I found it. So I'm happy again. I guess it's kind of sad when my happiness depends upon a piece of stainless steel. But it's not just any piece of stainless... it's a leatherman.

Dream Vacation!

One thing I enjoyed about today's lecture was how to do research online. There are many resources that I didn't know about. I think it will be very useful to me, not only in my research for this class, but the BYU library has so much information that I really didn't know how to access. I didn't follow all of the complicated advanced search explanation that was given, though. That was a little confusing to me.

My dream vacation would be to the Swiss Alps. Those mountains amaze me so much and I would like to go there and see the incredible mountains and enjoy the beauty of the mountains. I think it would be so interesting to see all of that. It would be a dream.
