Choice Lectures

I liked how I was able to manage my time for my benefit. A lot of kids were skipping class so I guess that's why they shut the lectures down. The lectures were short, simple and got to the point. It was a good thought but just the wrong students couldn't make it last. I had a lot of down time and the days of easy. I fell behind in a lot of classes and I had to catch up. the 2nd quarter is a little harder to keep up with with.

What do you call a boring fish? Answer: A dullphin( dolphin)

Halloween

Halloween is that time of the year when kids can go around and knock on a stranger door and give them candy. People are able to walk around in mask, face paint, and costumes. Some people carry around murderous weapons that look real but can be fake. Many people scream of terrifying sites all through the night but never know what might actually be going. Someone could scream and cry for help of as if they were in danger but we wonder on as if we are mindless zombies in the night. Millions of people walk the street in disguise so you can't tell friend from foe. People in public place where giving out candy to little kids but wear a mask as they do so. Some streets are closed but doors are open as the creepers of the night wonder in the crowd. But this is some of the reason to why I love Halloween. Free candy from a person i may never see again so i can take as much as i want without having to feel sorry or pay them back.Scare the people who made fun of me or just have fun with my friends pulling pranks on each other. Zombies, vampires, werewolves, ghouls,witch, and wizards. That time of year when nerds and geeks are able to be creative and scare people to death or have the best costume. Halloween is fun and dangerous at the same time. Just like I don't know who they are, they don't know who I am either .😈😈😈

Reflecting

Its now the second quarter and i want to do things different already. I passed all my classes but I had the ABC's. This quarter and for the rest of the semester I just want A's and B's. I made some friends in my first quarter but with friends come enemies. I still looking for them but i'm pretty sure I will find them soon enough so I will just focus on my school work do what I have to do to be successful. The robotics courses are awesome because i'm learning so much. I just learned how to use binary numbers and learning how to program my robot. I'm just going to get everything out of school and get to college and have something to do to stay off the streets. I learned a lot in the first quarter and I will learn even more in the second.

1st Time In The Maker

For the first couple of weeks, we were in this place called the Maker Space. We had to break down pallets to create aerobic steps for our PE/Health teacher so he will be able to use them for his class. At first I was kind of nervous to be around irresponsible people with power tools but they stepped up to the plate and didn't play around with the tools as much as I thought they were. Building that little aerobic step felt great but I was nervous. I thought that we were going to mess it up but it worked out. I felt good when we were done and people said that it looked good.

Robotics

In the Robotics class me and partner are making a sensor robot. Our instructor gives us manual on how to build it and then we then just follow the instructions. I really like this class because i want to be a robotic engineer when I graduate high school and college. This gives me a good idea on how these robots function and it is very exciting to see what I build actually work and have function. Today was our second class and my partner and I are assembling the wheels. This is my future career and I like it very much.

Maker Space

The Ingenuity Fest is about celebrating art, music, technology, ingenuity, and man-made inventions. This festival will take place in Downtown Cleveland at the Great Lakes Science Center. The Ingenuity Fest is really about exploring and finding creativity. This helps Cleveland find new and fresh ideas and new inventions. Through some of these inventions, we can help make Cleveland a better place. Design Lab is taking part in the festival to help better Cleveland not just by creating a place to sit, but by thinking beyond a "bench" and making something unique. We need to work together and listen to others to make a great design but we also need great ideas to begin with. Building the seating area makes me feel nervous but I have to be strong and support my team. I will have to step up and be a leader to get our ideas chosen.

Self Introduction

My name Toriawn and I am going to be an robotic and computer engineer when I leave high school and have scholarships to go to MIT college.I'm from Indiana and I have a big family. My grandma has liver cancer and I pray that she make it through because I want her to see me graduate high school and college. I will make a better place for the world by conserving our materials for a more greener life style so we can stay alive for another 100 years. I don't think this is a dream its more of a goal that's reachable. My dream is to become the start of greatness in my family.
