this weekend was SO fun! and my birthday is tomorrow!!!!!!!! I am so excited! this weekend was one of the best EVER! here's why...
On Saturday night, I has my pre-birthday party with friends, which was really fun! Too bad Nancy couldn't come! But luckily Ellie and the rest of my pals made it. We went to Cibus at northpark and ate in the private room there! Then we went to see the bounty hunter! It was sooo fun!!! (btw- thanks for the candy ellie!) On Sunday, I barely had any homework. So I just got to hang out in the morning, and at 3 I went to Emily's house to help her make welcome gifts for the new families coming to ESD! We had so much fun! That night, we decided to have a pre-bday family dinner at Mattito's, one of my favorite restaurants! Because I helped Emily till about 5, my mom picked me up and we drove straight to dinner to meet my dad and brother. I walked in and saw my grandparents, who live in Georgia! They had driven all the way here from Georgia to suprise me! It was such a fun weekend I will never forget it!

Spring Break = FIN

Well, spring break is over :(. But is was super fun! Me and my friend Ellen rode bikes one day and then went to the new whole foods for dinner! yay! and my neighbord paid me $350 for watching their dogs! They made a check out to me and everything. I've never had a check made out to me before, but there's a first for everything right! lol! And then I did a lot of hanging out with friends and family in town. Me and my OTHER friend named Ellen took our brothers to see diary of a wimpy kid-lol it was too cute! our brothers loved it while Ellen and I watched them laugh at cheese and Halloween mishaps and such! Well, I'm back in school and ready for the weekend! lol comment!

Tables

This week in web design class, we are focusing on tables and our tables page. Mine is pretty fab, you can get to it through www.esdeagles.com/walkera. Tables are pretty simple, if you want to add padding or borders or merged cells you just add it on the original tag. This is really easy because sometimes you have to add entirely new tags that are really complicated. While making our tables pages, I saw Nancy and Ellie making theirs. Nancy's is so cute and Ellie's is just plain awesome. Check theirs out at www.esdeagles.com/collinse and www.esdeagles/burrown.

weakest webpage

So far, my weakest webpage is probably my Images page, because there is a lot of information on it. At first I would say it was my about html, but as the class has gone on I've been able to tweak it here and there to make the font smaller, which was a real problem for it! The font size was about 40!!! Anyways, my images page looks good, but isn't as creative (like my awesome colors page! ;)) since I was so worried about getting all the information up. All in all, i think my pages have turned out pretty cool! check them out at www.esdeagles.com/walkera!

Thursday

Spring break!!

I am so excited for spring break! But this year, for the first time in a while, we are staying here. Luckily I have friends who are staying too so I won't be too bored! We usually go to Rosemary Beach in Florida and stay at my grandparents house there, but its booked this year! Also on the up side, though, is that my neighbors are paying me $50 a day to watch their dogs for 7 DAYS. So, even though it isn't as fun as going somewhere, I know I'll have fun here too!

Monday

html update

So far, I would say that images and keeping the page "pretty" have been the hardest for me. There are so many different kinds of images, like JPGs and PNGs and PSDs, and they all vary with how they present the image on the web. There's also so many codes, that sometimes you forget to end one and then it throws the whole page off! The font will be huge, it will all be linked, or even simple spelling mistakes! But over the oast few weeks, I've really been able to get the hang of it!

more color

I just uploaded my web page to file zilla, the software we have been using in web design. I've come a long way since January and actually remember the codes. You can see my page through this website: www.esdeagles.com/walkera. Just click on the Project 1 link, which will take you to my images page. There will be a link to my color page at the top of images! It was really fun finding and editing the pictures I put up, and it was cool to have more freedom with what we were writing about. We were able to research and do it all ourselves!

Thursday

Sadies!

Last weekend was the Sadie Hawkins dance at my school! It was really fun and we got to dress up too because it was a theme. This year the theme was cowboys vs. indians!! I got to hang out with all my friends (like ells and nancy-lol!) too and we had a great time! cant wait for next year!

colors!

I just finished my color page! It's my favorite so far because of how colorful it is! I have a couple of diffrent patterns that went throught the page, and they look great. Thank goodness for adobe kuler though! I got all my colors from that website. On my page, I covered topics like color blindness, the color codes, and how to find good colors. I also posted a link to a website that tests your webpage to see how it would look to a color blind person.
