ROCKY!

Project #3!!!!
My person's name is Rocky. He is from WV, but goes to school at UCLA!
I am going to use what I have learned from Online Caroline to play with different people through different social networks. I am going to make them believe that Rockey is a true person and lives a crazy life! The difference is Rocky is not going to die at the end of this project, he will live on forever!

Project #1 Reflection!

I thought that this project was very entertaining. At the beginning I never thought that I was going to be able to put together such an interactive project. When I heard that we had to not only use our blog, but also goggle maps and flickr, I didn’t think that I was going to be able to remember how to put it all together. After learning in class how to do linking and addressing it made the whole project easier to all come together. I think of "A Day in Mimi’s Life," to be more of a puzzle then a contest. There are different parts within my story that says Gavin can either do one thing or another. In the end, no matter how Mimi’s day goes, it always ends and starts with them at home and in their beds. I hope you all enjoy a day in the life of my big sister Mimi and her little baby Gavin!

Pictures & Thoughts

Over the past year I have taken many different pictures of Gavin. I am going to use these pictures. I have some of him playing, sleeping, crying, etc. I have enough pictures of him to use many different ones to fill in blank spaces. Not only am I going to use pictures of Gavin but also of my sister Mimi. I am not sure if I am going to add my pictures right on to my blog, or just put them on Flickr. I think that these pictures are going to add to my story because they are going to place a face to a name. Also, I always love to look at pictures of babies(who doesn't?) I think that the pictures with add to my story in a very positive way.

Pieces of MiMi's LiFe!

Where does my story begin?
~This story is going to be a day in the life of my sister Mimi. I am going to start just like she starts everyday-waking up. This is going to be taking place in her house which is located in Newtown, PA. Mimi does no need a clock to get her up every morning because little Gavin, a one year old, does that for her.

Where does my story end?
~I am going to end my story with Mimi going to bed after a long day of different events. This is also going to be taking place within her home in Newtown, PA.

What happens in between? Drama?
~Throughout the day, I am going to be explaining the different events and problems that she faces with having a baby, family, job, and other little things that need to get done everyday. I think that this is going to be a contest because I am going to take the viewers on a journey through a day in Mimi's life. The drama is how to handle and get done everything that needs to be done within a 24hour period and with little sleep.

Timeline?
~This is going to take place over a timeline of one day. There are many different things that happen within just one day of my sister's life. I am going to focus on the main points and leave out the little boring details of her day because I feel that it could get boring for the reader and take a lot of time to go through every little thing that she does within 24hours.

Characters?
~Mimi, John, Gavin, Meg, Kevin, Grandparents
