Tell me about your weekend. Share pics!

Over the weekend I went to Nebraska to visit my cousin and also to visit Nebraska-Omaha which is where I will be playing soccer next year. My visit was really exciting and the girls on the team were very nice and helpful when they showed me around. I then went to the University of Nebraska to and stayed overnight in the dorms with my closest cousin. We ordered pizza and watched the football game on Saturday night.

What kind of background do you have with Photoshop? Have you used it before? What other types of design and editing software have you used before? Explain.

I used Photoshop in 8th grade and pretty much used the basic concepts of it. We didn't really get into a lot of detail with it. I have really only used Photoshop a little bit and I've used other editing things that are on my phone but nothing more advanced than that.

The type of school courses that we would need to have would include things like personal finance, a class on how to understand taxes, a class on buying homes and cars, and classes on how to understand social norms. I would want the curriculum to be based around real-life tasks that would benefit me later on in life when I had to do things in the real world. You would study by applying them in a similar situation and maybe interviewing someone who had to do to them. These classes would be different because they would have real-world application rather than doing pointless tasks that don't benefit students when they go out and look for a job.

The following article was in the September issue of The Tiger Print. Read the article (even if you already have) and respond to it below. What do you think? Do you agree? Disagree? Consider all perspectives of the article while you respond.

This article is something I feel very strongly about. I agree and I think that a lot of times society gives girls a bad image because of the way they dress and they don't really think about the fact that boys are the ones who need to give girls respect for being confident. If  a girl is confident enough to wear something and is comfortable enough to do so then I think people should respect that. If boys are distracted by the girls around them that should not be a reflection on the girls, it should be a reflection on the boys.

Tell me about your weekend! If you don't have anything fun to share, tell me about the city you live in. What do you love about Kansas City? Do you have a favorite place in the city? Favorite team? :) Favorite event? Explain.

Over the weekend I had two soccer games which I played at the Overland Park Soccer Complex. My team won both games, the first one was 6-1 and the second one was 7-3. It was weird because those are really high scoring games. I also celebrated my little sister's 16th birthday on Sunday and we went out to eat at Bonefish Grill. After we went out to eat we went over to our neighbor's house to watch the Royals' game which was really exciting!
