What's the coolest thing you've learned in Web Design so far? Why is it so cool and how can it help you in the future?

The coolest thing that I have learned in Web Design is how to code information into your website. I think that this is cool because since I know how to put information into a website I can inform people about topics that I feel are important like Doctor Who or background information about me. This benefits me in the future because it allows me to make useful websites like my resume to be more in control of job opportunities. Also, this is good because with being able to write information I can campaign fro a political position or make people more aware of issues like STD's.

Define 'User Experience'. What does it mean and how does it relate to web design? Explain yourself.

The definition of user experience involves a person's behavior, attitudes, and emotions about a particular product, system, or service. What it means is "what is a persons reaction to your website?" Are they learning about you and having fun while doing it? This relates to web design because without are websites being used by users are websites would have no purpose. For example, in class we are starting to make a resume website. This is helpful because this allows future employers and colleges to know more about us while not being bored just reading are credentials off of paper. It allows us to be different then other appliers in a positive way that are applier will like to see. We make websites for users to see and have fun with and without user use we would have no point in making websites like are resume website.

What is a resume website? What do people put on resume websites. Spend about 5-10 minutes looking up resume websites and what they are used for. Explain what you find. Include an image of a resume website if possible.

A resume website is a page created by a person looking for a job to show people his credentials more easily then with paper. A option that the user has when creating a resume website is to show former awards, job experience, profession, opinion on certain issues, and extra curricular activities like coaching. This is helpful to people that are looking for someone to hire because it allows them to see a persons credentials more fun than everyone else's resume and make the person hiring know more information about the person that's job seeking then a regular resume displays. I saw when researching that a resume website usually consists of useful information that has fun interactive activities that teach you more about the person the websites about.

What are you doing for Spring Break?

Spring Break is going to be so much fun because I get to go to represent the school and go to chess state! I am looking forward to this because it is the first time I ever have gone to state. I am practicing in order to do the best I can in the tournament. I also get the benefit of going to comi con at Bartle Hall this Sunday. I am looking forward to this as well because I get to see lots of cool Doctor Who stuff and pokemon art. There will also be some amazing actors that have acted in Doctor Who and lots of cool costumes. The rest of break I will probably just do my scouting work and sleep in.

Who do you look up to in your life? Why do you look up to them? Tell me about them and some of their characteristics that you admire.

In my life, the person I look up to the most is my BBBS brother, Carl. I look up to him because he sets a good example for me to follow. He helps me whenever I am having a trouble in life and knows exactly what to say when I need advice. Carl is a very awesome guy is a a computer programmer for Cerner and  is a proud fan of Doctor Who. If I had never met him I would have never watched Doctor Who. I admire his loyalty, respect, perseverance, respect, and his optimistic personality. Without Carl in my life I would have no example to follow and I would be very immature and disrespectful. I owe Carl a lot for his perseverance on never giving up on me when times were tough.

Tell me about your weekend.

My weekend was horrible because my uncle Steve died and my Grandma went to the hospital because she has a blatter infection. I had to miss school Friday in order to go up to Omaha to see my Uncle Steve's funeral. It was very sad because he was a very inspirational person who always made my day and he had been living handicapped since he was 19 years old thanks to a car crash that made him immobilized for life. During the weekend, I had delicious food from various restaurants  and got to buy chocolate at Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory and get Ice Cream. The whole weekend, I had to spend my nights sleeping on a very uncomfortable couch and got to see my awesome cousin Ben. We got back yesterday and I finished my Website for Web Design.

If you were the Principal for a week at BVHS, what would that look like? What changes would you make? Why?

If I was the principal of BVHS for a week what I would do is get better food in the cafeteria and allow longer passing periods. I would make the cafeteria have better food because sometimes I get cookies and stuff that are under cooked or over cooked. I would allow longer passing periods because I feel that with longer passing periods students can make more friends without having to rush to class. Another change I would make to the school is I would allow 2 winners for the daily 10 dollar Tuesday to encourage students to do there work and have a better chance to win 10 dollars. This is all the changes I would make if I was the school principal for a week.

Tell me about your weekend.


My weekend was very long because of staying up late and going to places like the mall. On Friday night, I went to Mi Ranchito and ate some delicious chips and salsa. I also has some amazing quesidillas and when me and my mom were done we went home and caught up on sleep. When we awoke on Saturday morning, I had the privilege to go to Costco and get a smoothie and slice of pizza. It was Delicious! Later that day, I got to go to the mall with my best friend Dean and we walked around looking at cool electronics and clothing.  After the mall, I got to go to the movie theaters and saw the new Spongebob movie. I liked it because of all the characters that teamed together to accomplish one goal of getting back the Krabby Patty secret formula. On Sunday, we went to a Purim carnival at my religious Synagogue and got to eat delicious kosher hot dogs and chips. We left and went home and I worked on my homework for the rest of the night.
