The End

So today it felt good to go into publication design and know that it's basically over with. The only thing I had to do today was check with the editor in chief (Amelia), and the layout editors (Tristan and Erin) about whether or not I needed to do anything more for my spread, and if the picture I sent to them was good enough. Then I thumbed through our final product of a magazine and liked what I saw. My group turned our final into lamags and then I was done. Afterwards I finished most of my final paper in class. I think I was pretty honest throughout the whole paper, and hope to convey that to whoever reads it. I don't think I was mean or anything, but I think it was honest.

It's Fridaaaaay!

Today was another day that involved not doing anything for this class, but studying for my chemistry test of course! I didn't have anything to do though, so I wasn't slacking off. I didn't receive the picture from Claudia yet, but I'm going to e-mail her again asking her to send it this weekend so that I can have it for class on Wednesday. I haven't started on my paper yet, but I think I already know what I'm going to say. I think our project is going to be baller and that I have worked hard by getting most of my stuff done on time. Most of the time. But I do think I tried hard to go take pictures and talk to Claudia.

HHH

So today I made a caption for a picture that I have of the Zumba Group dancing. I struggle hard at pictures, so I don't think the pictures are good, but I did try! I am awaiting the e-mail of Claudia's picture from Claudia. I'm hoping she will send it tomorrow so that we can add her picture tomorrow. I also titled my spinoff as DANCE DANCE. I need to create a fun fact for Zumba, but I'm not totally sure what i'm going to say yet. Probably about how their are about 8 + types of dancing styles that are incorporated into the exercise.

Hay struggle fotos de la clase de Zumba!

Last night Jkriebs and I went to Zumba, and it was a very hard workout this week. I struggled a little bit. But through my thigh burning pain, I was able to get the pictures that I needed for the magazine. I took several pictures of the class, and I got a full body shot of Claudia. But, yes there is a but. Jkriebs camera lost battery and so we had to take Claudia's single photo with Jordan's camera phone. When we arrived to class this morning, Jordan said that the picture didn't save on her phone, so I currently don't have a picture of Claudia. But, yesterday Claudia told me that she could send me a picture of her if need be. So I am going to send her an e-mail tonight pleading for this picture.

I Ran Only to be LATE!!!

Today I ran to class alongside Christina Lee at full pace, with a backpack and etc. belonging in hand, but aI was still late to class. Yes, I know, I'm working on it Lamags. Today in class we finally saw our precious yearbook that we created! After a long hard year of working so hard on the yearbook, it is here and ready to go. I didn't look at the pages because other people in class were looking at it already, and I had to do my math homework because I'm a slacker and don't do my math homework on the weekend (WOOT). But, I am going to get pictures for Zumba tonight. Jkriebs and I are going together and I'm going to use her digital camera.

LAST DAY BEFORE PROM GET HYPE!!!!

Okay so I haven't really done anything significant for Zumba. I have to get a camera and take pictures on monday so that I can have all the things I need to add to our magazine. I'm getting pictures of the class dancing and one with claudia in the front of the class dancing. I need another picture for her the spinoff i've doing on her. SO I need to get a head shot of her. I did my math homework today in class because I didn't really have anything to do. But Kelsi interviewed me about shopping, which I thoroughly enjoy. Castleton mall is good for great buys.

Tuesday Morning

Last night I went to Zumba where I got a very good workout, but did take some time to stop and take pictures. But unfortunately my camera is struggling and the pictures came out heller dark. So I think I am going to borrow a camera from school or from one of my friends who have a more up to date and better pixeled (is that a word?) than mine is. I was able to get Claudia's interview though. She's really just an amazing person. She's been dancing since she was five and knows a whole variety of dances like cumbia, reggaeton, belly dancingm, bachata, etc. You can tell when she's dancing that she has so much passion and when she gets excited while dancing, I also do because her passion is infectious.

Monday Morning woo!

This weekend I woke up at a godforsaken hour of 8:15 on a Saturday morning. I drove all the way to Carmel to take the pictures of the Zumba class and I get there and there isn't anyone there. There's a sign posted that says the class was cancelled. So no, I didn't get the pictures this weekend, and no, I didn't get the spinoff from Claudia. But, lucky for me there is a class tonight that I usually go to, and so I'm going to that one tonight so that I can get everything I need in time for tomorrow's double. I can write the spin off tonight about how long Claudia (the instructor) has been dancing, and why she is so passionate about dancing in general.

Hey Kiddies!

Okay, so today me and my group made a detailed plan of what was going on in our magazine....spread by spread...and page by page. I think our magazine is going to kick butt because our magazine is going to be about fun things to do on the weekends. There is tons of stuff that people do on the weekends, so there are a lot of interesting and fun things to do. I also got to be chosen as copy editor/photographer for this publication. My contribution to the magazine today was coming up with the idea to add Zumba, which is a type of exercise that uses a combination of different Latin dances (and aly tried to steal my thunder by attempting to explain it, but I do it better anyway), to the exercise section to the magazine.
