EOC Week 4

So far on what I learned in this class, is how to use Microsoft Excel, and begin to use the Garage Band program. Also, I learned how to create a blog. I’m still having a few problems getting used to the blog entries, but I’m getting the hang of it, day by day. Also, I still feel is one of my biggest challenges is the Microsoft Excel because I’ve never really used that program for any reason. Also, I still feel that I might need to learn a little more on the Excel program because I might need to use it later on in my career. Another thing that I learned and that I still need to continue to practice is getting used of logging in, into my bog entries, because I need to sound professional for adults.

My favorite kind of music is R&B, but I also love Techno. If I could mix and create music, I would combine R&B mixed with Techno because I think it would sound amazing, and it is something new to some people. For those who have heard a mixture of Techno and R&B, I would then like to try something new by combining Techno, R&B, and Rock, just to get a new flow and feel to music.

            Some of the things that scare me that are on the web would have to be anything that relates to spam. Spam could be anything from getting a new free entertainment system, to anything that relates to sex. Since I’m a guy who attends college, and I’m over the age of 21, I get scared to open up a random email and have it turn out to be a minor, who’s looking for alcohol or prostitution, just to get me caught and have me sent to jail. I’ve had a friend from high school who didn’t bother to listen to the spam he kept receiving on his mail, and one day, he accidentally opened up one of the minor spam’s, and ended up going to jail because he ended up talking to a girl who told him she was 18, when she really was 13.

 

            My second most worst spam that scares me, is getting pop ups, that tell you that you got a new free tv, game system, or something in that category. I’ve had past experience with my old computer, to the point where it began to run slower and slower everyday because I accidentally clicked on a certain website and it took me to a pop up. When I tried to close down the window, it told me that if I closed the window, it will shut down my computer and any unsaved data, will be erased. I thought it was just a simple little message, so I clicked the close button, and my entire computer shut down. As soon as I restarted it, a lot of my unsaved date was gone, and there was no way I could retrieve it back, so lost all of that information. In the end, my computer crashed from running too slow, and I haven’t had a new computer or lab top, ever since.

Club Short-Z is one of the newest, and most hottest clubs in Las Vegas. I started my design when I was still going to school and chose this field because I'm really passionate about my field, and I  knew that there are a lot of people out there that love specific themes, year round around. My first design for the club, was to have a Halloween theme because I knew that there are a lot of Halloween fans that would like it to be year around, so I decided to create my theme, year around. I like the fact that the theme excited everyone liked my style, so I decided to go for a different theme for my current club. My second theme was a pirate theme, but I came to realize that "Treasure Island" already has a pirate theme so I stayed with my first idea. 

For my second club, I’m working on a new project, where the theme is “Modern”. Not related to anything that relates to Space like theme, I’m only focusing on the style which goes from curves, and space planning correctly. I decided this idea because I want people to tell the difference between a Space like theme, to my Modern theme. Also, for another of my upcoming projects, is that I’m working on designing a bar area for club Short-Z, so adults can get a feel of relaxation, when going to the club. It was originally intended to be just a regular club, but I like the idea of having a built in bar for the adult who just want to "relax". My first bar design at for the club, is that I want to make the be, Hawaiian or Beech like because I’ve always loved the beach. Another reason why I decided to pick that theme is because I know someone that I'm very close to and is special to me, so I decided to do it on a club idea she would like to see. I really liked the idea she gave me so i took it into consideration.
