Monday Monday Monday
Yesterday was the last monday of the school year, and class went fast and easy. We finished up the last of the presentations, and then did an activity with Microsoft Access. I never knew that such a program existed, but it was interesting. Today is that last day of class, and Thursday is the final exam. Wednesday looks like a nice day to head to the beach! And later today looks prime for some golf. We'll see whats gonna happen!

The presentation
Today I presented my powerpoint on Viruses and the punishment revolving around such crimes. It is an interesting topic to me, and I enjoyed researching it. Other presentations today included biometric devices, gaming addiciton, and social networking. This marks the end of one more week of class, and with one more left, home is closer than ever.
Catching Up
Tuesday Class:
Tuesday was an easy day in class, we took our midterm and got to leave when we were done. It was a quick and simple day.
Wednesday:
Yesterday we started hearing presentations from fellow classmates. A lot of interesting topics were brought up including iTunes, spyware, and controlling your childrens internet usage. I am presenting today, so we will see how that goes. I chose to do punishment for computer viruses, and how it is lacking. This interests me because I know from personal and friends experiences dealing with computer viruses.

We also talked about some chapter 7 topics, but not to many because not all are going to be on the test. Besides that monday was a relaxing day, and we will see what Tuesday has to offer!

Wednesday Class
Almost done for the week again, and it already feels like its been a semester again.
In today's class we got into groups again and discussed applications. My group covered "cloud applications"
The most common cloud app is Google docs. A lot of you might not have heard of this, but it is a free app that can be used on google, where multiple people can work on a project together without tons of emails and getting together. Projects can be done on the web by anyone in the group of people invited to work on the project. Its a nifty app if you know how to use it.

Tuesday Class + Practice
Class:
Today's class we got into groups and discussed different topics concerning the ethics of internet usage. My group discussed how businesses monitor their employees use of internet. The topic was brought up that companies monitor and control the amount of internet people can use that work for them, and the management can see what these people see. While employees complain, the company is responsible for what the employees due, and therefore can have control on its usage.
Practice:
Sometimes you just can't put everything together. You have your good vault days, and your bad. Today was definitely a bad. A big fear of some vaulters is changing to a bigger pole. It can be scary, but the best thing to do is the same thing you have been doing. The reason we move up poles is because the pole speed is to fast, or we don't get enough "pop" out of the pole. I have been jumping on a 15' 165lbs rating pole, and it just doesn't cut it at the higher heights. Today and recently I struggle to swing up on the 170, but its all in my head, and once I can come to terms with that, I will finally qualify for nationals.

Monday's Class
Today's class was by far one of the easiest so far. We took our midterm exam, which I thought was suprising easy, and I ended up with an 85%. It's a good start to this class but next test I will definitely try to get a better score.
