GIVING YOUR OPINION ABOUT COLLEGE LIFE!!!

In one of the last english classes we did a kind of circle of conversation and started talking about the Miss Universe 2008, where our Miss Venezuela, Dayana Mendoza won the fifth wreath for Venezuela.

After that, we gave our opinion about college life, so I picked three questions about the topic, and these were my answers:

1. How do you like your university?
I like it very much, there are great professors in here and it offers to all of us the tools for a good education.

2. How many subject are you taking this semester?
I´m taking 8 subjects this trimester, including comunity service, and it´s driving me cracy.

3. What are the top three things you hope to get out of (get as a result of) your university days?
In general, I hope that all the knowledge that I´ve learned in the university help me being a good professional and a succesful person.

HIGH SCHOOL AND UNIVERSITY!!!

Well, there are many differences between high school and university. I studied in Claret´s school for 12 years and I can say there´s nothing as my school. I made my best and true friends there.
In high school you don´t have many responsibilities, you´re only thinking about having fun and spend a good time with your close friends. You´re expecting the graduation and the travel you´re gonna make after it.

On the other hand, once you get in to the university, you can see the differences from the beginning. In the university you are the only responsible of your future, and all the decisions that you take are going to influence in it. Also, it´s not so easy making new friends, because everybody is in their own world. Subjects are harder and you have to being constantly studying.

HOW TO DRAW A CARTOON?

This one is a drawing made by myself. It was inspired in Angelica, from Rugrats.

As you could notice in the video watched on July 6th class, it´s not as hard as we think making a drawing, all you need is to pay attention to the instructions and practice as much as you can.

I hope you like my creation, and if you want to... try to make your own drawing...

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CARTOONS AND ANIMATIONS!

In essence, there is truly little difference between "traditional" animation or cartoons and computer animation; the primary difference is in the tools used to create these animations, the cost and effort involved in the processes, and the quality of the final output.


Traditional animation is a very hands-on process. This requires a team of artists, cleanup artists, painters, directors, background artists, and film/camera crews, along with the storyboard artists and script writers to work out the original concepts; for large-scale projects, the amount of time, labor, and equipment involved can be staggering.



Traditional 3D animation was less "3D" and more still-lifes of claymations done by use of stop-motion filming techniques; the true concept of 3D animation didn't really blossom until the use of computers in animation became more practical. Computer animation removes the need for many of the extra tools required to create an animation; all you need, in general, is a computer with enough system requirements to run the 2D or 3D software application of choice, and people capable of using that software.

INTERVIEW TO TOM HANKS!

AND THIS IS AN INTERVIEW TO TOM HANKS FOR THE MOVIE FORREST GUMP. I´D LIKE YOU TO SEE!! HAVE A GOOD TIME!! AND SORRY FOR THE LATE TEACHER!!!

-ENVIRONMENT-

Everybody knows that the worst environmental problem is the Global Warming. It´s amazing how far we´ve come. We prefer all the technologycal advances in exchange of the destruction of our planet. People haven´t notice how in danger we are. Since centuries ago, we´ve been constructing a fatal future to ourselves and to the earth and if we don´t change our ways before we even know it it will be too late to fix all the damage we´ve done.

So...what can we do about it?
1)Stop using the familiar incandescent light bulbs and replace them with compact fluorescent bulbs, which last much longer and use only a quarter of the energy consumed by conventional bulbs
2)when shopping for an appliance (a refrigerator, a dishwasher, an air-conditioner)select the one with the highest energy efficiency rating
3)turn off the light when you are not using it.

TITANIC SCRIPT!!

This is a part of the scrit of titanic:

ROSE: Jack, this is impossible. I can't see you.

He takes her by the shoulders.

JACK: Rose, you're no picnic... you're a spoiled little brat even, but under that you're a strong, pure heart, and you're the most amazingly astounding girl I've ever known and--

ROSE:Jack, I--

JACK: No wait. Let me try to get this out. You're amazing... and I know I have nothing to offer you, Rose. I know that. But I'm involved now. You jump, I jump, remember? I can't turn away without knowin' that you're goin' to be alright.

Rose feels the tears coming to her eyes. Jack is so open and real... not like anyone she has ever known.

ROSE: You're making this very hard. I'll be fine. Really.

JACK: I don't think so. They've got you in a glass jar like some butterfly, and you're goin' to die if you don't break out. Maybe not right away, 'cause you're strong. But sooner or later the fire in you is goin' to go out.

ROSE: It's not up to you to save me, Jack.

JACK: You're right. Only you can do that.

ROSE: I have to get back, they'll miss me. Please, Jack, for both our sakes, leave me alone.
