First day of Summer Semester 2013 a success!!

Yep, I'm back at school...

Today was great: I am back with all my friends and teachers at NGTC for another fun (but hard) semester! I am excited about my schedule.

I only have one class (Tuesdays and Thursdays; Math class), but I have the Work Study position and so I am helping out in other classes. Dreamweaver (Web Technologies), Advanced Photoshop (Web Graphics II), and HTML5 (Web Development) are the classes I am helping in. And, since I love to build Web pages, create Web sites, and enhance photos using Photoshop, I am one happy camper this semester! I also get to help Mr. Long and Mrs. Black!! (I love being involved and being busy!)

Yeah, it's going to be a great semester!

Web Design progress...

As I have already had all the Web Design classes offered at NGTC, and am now "in business" designing Web pages, I find helping in all these classes to be a great way to stay up to date and fresh with everything I've learned.

And, yes, I still love designing Web sites and Web pages.

What's the difference? Well, to me, designing a Web site is an in-depth procedure that involves understanding the company, the mission statement of the company, the company goals, and the desired target audience. It's all the work that goes on behind the scenes. It is designing multiple pages with all of that in mind.

Whereas designing a Web page, to me, is adding a page to an existing site - a site created by me or by someone else. Or, it could be updating an already existing site, possibly bringing the code up to date, or changing the layout, or both. 

Either way, any way, every way: I love doing this!! LOL

Okay: off to school...

End of Spring Semester 2013

Spring has sprung and the semester has leapt over the wall! (Yeah, I am on break. Smile. Summer Semester begins May 20.)

For me, the last day of the semester was April 29, when I had my English 1102 Final. I was pleased with my grade on the Final (a 95) as well as for the course (a 97), but I am now glad to get a rest from school.

I have been very busy this semester with Web jobs; even now, I am working on the YMCA site - been up all night working on documentation...

Plans during break...

So what do I have planned during break? Glad you asked! First, I will continue going to work at NGTC (Work Study position) and working on Web sites. But I also have some other projects I want to do... I also hope to visit two friends; one out of town, the other out of state. Hopefully that will work out. Oh, and don't forget my family - I hope to catch up with them, too! LOL

And then there is my office which is in need of straightening... LOL (It's not too bad, just getting hard to find paperwork I need.) I have to make that a priority!!

No Other News to Tell, Except:

I am still square dancing - had a dance class today. I am now learning the left side (men's part) so that: one, I can dance more often as I do not have a regular partner; and two, other ladies without partners can also dance more often. Yes, I prefer dancing the right side (ladies' part), but it is great to be versitle. And, as I go up in level, being able to dance from either position will have its advantage!

That is all I have to offer tonight!
