Week 13 (Final Project Reflection)

The time has come and we have finished doing our twenty percent project. Doing this project really helped me communicate better with my peers. My group and I started off really strong doing this project and finished strong too. I will admit that I will miss taking pictures with macro lens and making our world a better place. I learned how to use Google documents better because we usually communicate through Google documents. There was some times that we wont even take pictures for a week and we thought of giving up and stuff, but we didn't. What we did through out this year is that we really focused and put all our minds together making this really happen. Me thinking of what's going to happen to our Instagram, Vine and our website blogs in the future I think that we'll NEVER forget about this project and it will be inside our heads until the day that we die or something. Probably like twenty years from now, if we have like a high-school reunion and my group meet each other again we'll probably talk about this project. Presenting this project was some what difficult for me because I didn't memorize some of the lines that I wrote from the script for this project. We had this down, but I think it was me who messed up this presentation. Hopefully we still got a better grade than any other group, I'm saying saying that because I think that my group and I are the only group who actually did something good including Alicia. I thank you (the people who actually read my blogs every week) Also the people who gave us ideas. We love you for helping us. It's not too late to follow us in instagram @VIA _MACROWORLD.... and remember IT'S CLOSER THAN YOU THINK!!!

Week 12

This is the last time our class will be able to work on the 20 Percent project in class that we have been doing every week this whole year. We're going to be able to present next week on Thursday the 29th or Friday the 30th . As of right now, my group and I are working on our power point presentation that we're going to be presenting on one of those dates. The ones who are actually working on the presentation is Divina and I, the one who is working on the video is Patrick. We're so close to the end of the school year I just can't wait until summer comes and get this year over with. My group and I are planning to keep the Instagram page going and will post macro pictures regularly. About the collage that we're doing, finished gathering macro pictures of eyes for our blogs and also the power point. Im actually nervous presenting this year because this project is really big and like our whole grade! Guys, it's not late to follow us on via Instagram @_MACROWORLD
We're almost to 300 followers, our goal is probably to get 1k followers by next year and see how it is. I thank you all (the people who actually follow my blogs every week) for supporting our project and our group.

Week 11

This week we learned so many things in English class, I know that this is off topic, but it's my blog ya'know. So we learned that statistics shows that people who tell their goals to other people most likely ends up not doing it. It's because when you tell it to some one you feel that hype or excitement and you're going to feel that you have already accomplished your goal. This was spoken at TED by Derek Sivers. Now, about your 20 percent project, all we did this week is took random pictures of things that we thought are cool. For the next week we're probably just going to do the same thing. Like last time I wrote on my other blogs i said that we we're running out of ideas to do. We're just two weeks away from presenting our project to the whole entire class. I think that our project will turn out better than expected.. well hopefully! So if you guys are not following us on Instagram yet please follow us @_MACROWORLD.

week 10

This is the tenth week of our 20 percent project in second semester. Today in class, I found out the people who smile more live the longest. We watched a video on YouTube about why smiling will make people live longer. If you smile at least twenty times a day, it's a guaranteed fact that you will live about 70-80 years longer. Little kids tend to smile about 400 times in a day. Me and my group are talking about what we're going to do for our presentation. Like how we're going to present in-front of the class, on how we're going to start it off and end it with a bang. We worked really hard for this project. Our deadline is in two weeks, we're thinking of not stressing it out and doing it at the last minute. Our group wants to be ahead and be prepared early so we don't mess up during the presentation. If you guys still havn't followed us on via instagram, please follow now its never too late! @_MACROWORLD

Week 9

This week of _MACROWORLD we did not really do anything for this week. We did not take any pictures and what not. We just got the date when our presentation is due and when we will present it. It will be next month on May 29 & 30th, five weeks from now.  My group and I are planning on making a video when were going to present our presentation. We want to be legit and unique when we do it.  We're planning to do a slideshow thing and a voice over the pictures, basically like a commentary of what we did through out the year from the first picture that we took until now.  My group and I did really well and worked hard to do this project. Maybe even after this project, we're going to continue taking pictures and keep the instagram working for fun. We're also trying to inspire other people to do the same thing as us because not a lot of people take pictures. As always please follow us on via instagram @ _MACROWORLD

Week 8

It has been week 8 since we have started working on our macro project for the new semester. Couple more months and we're done with the school year and our project will be due. We will have to present our project that we have been doing the whole year in front of the class. Hopefully everyone will get to enjoy/like our groups presentation. We really work hard making our project and our instagram account. Our instagram account has like more than 300 followers now! I can't believe it. I thought that at first our macro project will not even be that big. I honestly didn't have faith in our project and thought everyone will just give up on it like the 5th week in, but no we just ran out of ideas and now we're back on our feet. For this week's topic we're doing is about flowers and some insects. Yesterday we uploaded a video of an ant and it looks like it's dancing. We named it Andy the ant. If you would want to see the little short video of Andy the ant dancing, please follow us on via _MACROWORLD

Week 7

We're at the end of the quarter this week.  My group haven't really done anything this week. Its because we do it every Thursdays now. One of our group members are not here today. I think shes the one who has the macro lens. About the eye slideshow project thing that we're doing. We have took a little bit of pictures this week. Like we have covered the right side of the room. Not even half of it yet, hopefully we're going to complete doing this task. I have not really done anything that much this week. One of my group members will give me the lens tomorrow so i could prove my self that i can take pictures. A thing about the website that we're making, I think that it's up and running now, but i haven't really checked it yet though. I would like to see how it turned out. My group said it looks really good and we're going to advertise it, I don't know how, but we're going to advertise it.
