Twitter Week

Twitter

Ahh, Twitter

Up until last week I have managed to avoid Twitter. I have evaded it with the most amazing skill. I have dodged it like it's Kale.

But no more.

This week we learned about Twitter. We had to make a post on Twitter using our articles. I used my article about GBBO and posted it on Twitter. It took me a few tries at it because I kept not liking the way that it would turn out.

We learned about how Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and other social media have different specs for their layout. Each one has a different size that they want different images to be. I went in to use Canva, tried to experiment with that a bit, but it made me feel a little angry so that will be a song and dance for another time.

I think my Twitter post came out ok. I included the dreaded hashtag
#stillnotafan
#nothanks
#onlyforclass
as well as the link and a photo. It looked nice and directed people right to the article so I would say that's a success.

Maybe Twitter will grow on me more as I learn more about it and experiment with it more.

QR Codes

This week we worked with QR codes in class.  This was my code: This code links to the website of the event coordinator that I am currently working for. I chose to do a flyer for her because I thought it would be good practice. I think that QR codes are extremely interesting and a very good idea. Something that you can just scan and have all the information come up instantly without having to search or go through a lot of different information. After finding out the the Twitter app has a QR code scanner built in, I have been scanning any QR code that I come across. Our professor set up an assignment in class that was a QR code treasure hunt. She taped up QR codes, each of which came up with a different link. Some were videos and some were photos. It was fun because something so simple, a black and white code, held secrets that we were excited to find out about. I think that is one of the nice things about these codes, keeps people excited, interested, and wanting to fin...

Altered Cake Mix

I made a cake. Now, with who I am, this news shocks no one. I love making cakes, especially decorating them. This cake, however, was different. I just wanted cake. Chocolate cake, chocolate filling. I had to have it, been craving it for almost two weeks. I tried to fight it to no avail. Here I am, sitting at a table, trying not to devour an entire cake. Now this cake, I must confess, was made from an altered box cake mix. *GASP* I know, I know it's horrifying. But what's even worse is, I am not ashamed of it. Most of the time I will gladly and happily make a cake from scratch, I love to do it! However, with the whole family being sick lately and my son starting preschool I felt way too exhausted to spend the time and energy to make a cake from scratch. I always keep a few boxed cakes on hand in case of an emergency and, well, this chocolate craving definitely qualified as an emergency. So, without any more useless story or chatter, I give you the boxed cake fix u...
