Mock Up

Depending on what we had chosen at the beginning of the year we would have to make a mock up site of our static site. I had chosen to do junior football. The previous one of the site was so outdated and was dull. I used a template and multiple tabs about the team, coaches, fans. It looks clean also which is the best part. Also during the week I had to type in all of last years graduates.

Flash

So the last few days we started working with flash. I have learned flash 2 years previously when I had taken grade 10 programming. What we are doing in flash currently is review of what I have learned before. I still follow the lesson and add a bit of touches and more artistically better well waiting for the class. We talked about motion, tweens, the "UNDERGROUND" as Mr.Charelli likes best. After we finish up flash we will use it on our mock up sites.

The Test Part 2

Tuesday we had to write the second part of our two day test. We had to design a website about the government of yukon. We had put images and put parts together and images into html links. I did pretty good but my target did not work which was disappointing. I managed to get 38 out of 45 and I forgot to use a external style sheet. I did better on the second half the test compared to the first half. For homework I finished my table of contents as it was worth 5% of my grade.

The Test Part 1

So on the past monday we had our big HTML test. I studied, I printed out all the notes and I practiced three times making a website. The first day of the test involved multiple choice and two short answer questions. It was out of 45 for the first half. On the first page the test I made 4 errors on easy questions. I was able to get all the image questions right on the hand. On the several pages after I got easy questions wrong again and got the tough questions correct. Most the multiple choice questions that involved programming I got correct. I did poorly though overall on the multiple choice so I made it up on the short answers where I got 14/14. Sir if you read this I wish there was more short answer questions.

2nd Practice Test

We are currently working on our 2nd practice test. We have our biggest test coming up next monday and tuesday. It is a two day test first part written second part done on the computer.

Style Sheets

So monday I took school of due to have the cold. I came back tuesday to learn about stylesheets. Stylesheets are used in everyday webpages and are taking over tables, cells. They are much easier to use for posistioning, 3-D effects and changing colour of fonts and backgrounds and maniuplating images.

HTML Design Problem

On friday we practiced on making a site with cells and doing style sheets without even knowing it. I finished the design problem on thursday so I just watched Charelli as he was reviewing it. We worked with gifs, making images to htmls, and merging pages to left and right side. After that I had a busy weekend ahead. My saturday was spent waking up at 6am to get ready for championship weekend for racing at Camerons Speedway. Lets say that it was a crazy day I wish I had a head camera to show everyone the races as it was crazy. My first practice not even the first lap due to the rain I crashed into the tires but after that I caught on fire for the races. After the first half of the championship I was tied for 2nd and only 5 points behind 1st. Then disaster hit in the second session it started pouring rain for our race I was starting 3rd and the two people starting ahead of me I had to beat. After the first couple laps disater hit I got hit from behind and went flying into the grass. I managed to catch back up and finish 5th for that race but I had pull a hare out of hat to catch up in points. Due to the Y108 event and nunmber of races showing up and people leaving that there be one last race with 10 laps on the 2km track. I started second last for this races and lets just say it was crazy you could hear over the pa system of how I got to the front so quick in the first two laps and how #88 the kart I was in was hitting people which I wasn't. I ended up finishing third in this race and it was crazy.
