It seems that in the hubbub that is Winter semester, I forgot to post this absolute masterpiece*! How could I? *in my, humble, opinion I remember working very diligently on this square, and I am delighted with how it turned out. I adore the dimensional detail in the flower petals and the overall style of … Continue reading Forgotten Flower

Learning Project: The Bee All and End All
It’s finally spring and further to that, it finally FEELS like spring! My kids are still working through their volleyball seasons, but I am very excited to move into baseball and softball to spend some more time outside. I mean, I say that now as competition continues to take place in a climate controlled and […]

When I was younger, my family and I would often watch HGTV in the morning as everyone got ready for the day, as well as after supper. We enjoyed the real estate shows as well as the reno show, and upon reflecting on this experience I was reminded of all the fascinating design ideas presented […]
Continue readingA Summary of my Learning Experience
At the beginning of this journey I was at a toss up with what I wanted to learn. I debated between ASL and Spanish and I ended up choosing Spanish. I am very happy with my decision and I feel like I have found some great ways to learn using technology. I began not knowing…

How is it the end of the semester already?!? It feels very surreal that I am at the very end of the very last semester of University. I am not even sure where this semester went! I work full-time as an assistant director at the daycare in the town I live in and for the better part of this semester I was also coaching Sr. Basketball. With school and basketball being over now… I am not sure what I will…
Continue readingtiktok made me do it…. post #10
I had to do it… TikTok was my last and final resource to check out for this learning project. I decided to look at this through pure coincidence and really it was always right there. When I am avoiding homework or housework… work work.. I end up scrolling through the many quick rips online. It is a dark worm hole as we (most) all know. Instant satisfaction. Then , possibly due to everything I have been searching for in my…

For this blog, I wanted to try something different in terms of online media, and that was to explore online magazines. My intrigue with this was that magazines have the potential to have a high variety of content all in one space. This would be great for someone who is starting out with woodworking because […]
Continue reading“Learn ASL” app – post #9
The Learn ASL app is one that I did not have a lot of positive things to say about. If it were one of my first resources I might have been wowed more by it but it mainly is a list of of words that you can click on. I like in my last post the list of words having an autoplay feature because then I wouldn’t have to individually click on each word to see the video to learn…

The last fourteen weeks have flown by! It feels like we were just in January getting started to take on a learning project journey. Here we are, in the last week of the semester, doing our learning project reflection. I took this learning project assignment as a time to take on my dream hobby of photography. My only experience with photography is using my cellphone camera, so I was ecstatic when my DSLR camera arrived. I’ve wanted to learn to…
