Links!

In web design we have been learning all about different kinds of links which is really cool! we learned how to add a picture that serves as a link and you can click on it and it takes you to a website. I think that is way cool!

New York!

So I'm supposed to fly to NYC today and all of a sudden out of nowhere a blizzard is headed to new england. GREAT! so now my plane has been cancelled but I'm really hoping that I will still get to go on another flight or maybe even fly into connecticut or some other state. Don't you just hate when the weather interferes with your plans I just HATE that. I mean really New York gets snow all the time you would think that their airport would be able to handle a little snow!

My Logo!

I just finished creating my very own logo! I must say I think it's really cute because it incorperates my favorite color combonation and my monogram! I am so proud that I(being so untech-savvy) could create a logo! Well here it is! What do you think?

Cell Phones!

I am so glad that we can have our phones out in the hallways at school because I know that many schools do not have this luxury. But I don't just use my phone to text my friends during school. I actually use it for a purpose. On my phone, the iPhone I have actually found it to be very helpful for school. 1) you can take it places that you cant take a computer and it can access the internet so you can google things if you need to. 2) you can look things up on a dictionary app. 3) you can send/recieve emails. In all I have found my phone to be very useful!

SNOW IN DALLAS!!!


Today I woke up late already in a hurry to get dressed before I even looked out my windows. After I had gotten ready for school I looked at the window to see a great surprise. SNOW! and not just a little tiny layer of ice or anything I mean its actually snowy! I was getting ready to go back to sleep but then I found out we were actually expected to be at school! Rediculous! But apparently we can go home at 1:30 so I'm excited for that!!! Pics of the snow included!

LOGOS!!!

Every company has a logo, be it an actual design or a certain font, color, and way they write the company name on every one of their products. If a logo is good I think that its design and shape stick with you so that if you saw again you would recognize it. It should not be so complicated that it destracts from the page or product it represents and it should be somewhat related to the company or individual it represents. Some personal favorite logos of mine are:

The Tory Burch logo
Its design is simple and not destracting but its also unique so it doesn't get confused with other company logos.

Another favorite of mine is the Lilly Pulitzer LogoThe colors are the company's trademark colors but even without the colors it is still recognizable as Lilly Pulitzer and it has the company's initials in a fun way.


And another favorite of mine is the Lacoste logo It has the company name and then the same logo on all of their clothing. A smart marketing technique because once people are familiar with the logo they will always recognize the products.

GROUNDHOG"S DAY!!!


So today is Groundhog's Day and the groundhog says that winter is not over. Much to my surprise there is actually a groundhog's day celebration in some town in Pennsylvania where Phil the groundhog comes every year and they look for his shadow! He is definitely an adorable groundhog!
