Tryping Tracker

I am definitely looking forward to doing the test even though I suck at typing. I can’t type accurately without looking down at the keyboard. I will not do well on the test, but I am hoping that I won’t fail it. Although, I do think I have improved since the begging of the year. There are some days that I do better than in others. I see how my other classmates write very quickly without even looking, and I feel bad. I am definitely not able to do that. I do wish to learn how they do that. I can imagine it will take a lot of practice. What I will need to be better, is practice any time I can. Like if I am on Facebook, or chatting with my friends, I could practice there. That will be one way I could possibly improve. I think that I will get a 19 on gross speed, 17 on net speed, and 85% accuracy. This assumption is based on the average of my other typing tests I have done. I also lowered the grade a little bit, because I haven’t been 100% true to myself. There are some times that I sneak a peek at my keyboard. I am both nervous and excited for the exam; I really hope I do exceptionally well.

Future Artifact



While i was doing this artifact, i actually learned a lot of things. For example, i learned how to change the text on an already existing object. I really do like how my artifact ended up looking like. The only thing i did not like was the fact that it does not look 100% real. I would have definitely have liked to make in perfection if i could have the chance to know other Photo shop secrets. At first i was very stuck to find pictures that represented what I wanted them to. After a while, i finally stared to get a lot luckier. It was not that hard to make the artifact since it is a very simple process. Although, the hardest problem to solve was that i couldn't think of a way to make the DVD dream catcher look real! That was the part of the project that i would have to be taught how to do. If this devise does occur in the future, i would be the first one to buy it. Having a dream catcher would be awesome. That way people wont have to worry if they forget their dream. Also, if you dream a very romantic and sweet dream, you could watch it over and over again. As if it were a movie. I am very happy with the ending result of my Future artifact.

This artifact was something that did impress me. It stated that in the future, we will depend on an iphone to do anything we wish to do. For example, be the key to your house, or even be the airplane ticket. I would definitely buy that iphone. It is something that will come in handy for any situation. I loved the artifact, it looks practically real. And it is not hard to imagine that that will actually be available in the future.

this was Anna's artifact. I completely love the idea of having a airplane that could travel in space. I would love to be on one of those flights. I can imagine all the amazing things i could see. Apart form being very cool looks SO real. It looks as if a pro made it. Also, the name is very original. I fell in love with the whole idea and presentation. It was a very interesting things to see. It could help in many positive ways. Like for teaching. You have a front row seat in seeing the sun up close. That you definitely be an amazing and unforgettable experience.

From all of the other projects that my classmates, i can tell that the future definitely seems very bright. We all had amazing ideas, and i don't doubt that in some time in the future they will all exist. I remember seeing a machine that could make babies! Now that is what i call interesting. The future is something we don't know a lot about but we can predict what we think might happen. These artifact will change the way we look at life now. They might make us a lot lazier. But there is always a down side to all the good things. If my artifact existed, it could not brig any bad outcomes. Since it does not really make you a lazy person, it just, makes dreaming a whole lot more fun. We would no longer have to worry about forgetting them. As well as, if we have a really really good dream, we can watch it over and over again. Like a personal love story to have on DVD. The same applies if you have a nightmare, you have it on DVD, to show all of your friends. Even doctors could use the benefits of this. They can learn a lot more about the human brain. They could see why it is we dream what we dream. As well as us knowing what is really on our subconscious mind. I am very happy with the outcome of my project. I cant wait to see what the future holds for us.

Artifact of the Future



I decided to choose this artifact from the future because I think it is amazing. I would definitely love to have one of those. It would be awesome to have a machine that controls what you are going to dream. I choose this one above the rest, because in my opinion, this is something that would be very fun for a lot of people. It could be something that can even help people. Some people who have very severe nightmare issues, or even people who have had a very strong event happen, not relive it by their dreams. This is from the future because it is obviously not possible yet. They mad a very good choice in using this artifact. This artifact definitely blew me away. I would be the first one to buy one of them, this has already gotten me excited for was is yet to come.
