Images & Attribution

This is another blog post for my 21st Century Skills class at school. We have been learning about giving people credit for using their images off the Internet. We also watched a video explaining what can happen if you let other people use your images without attribution. What I know is that you should give credit to the people whose photo you're using. There are many sites that don't have copyright images that you can use. For example: Flickr Creative Commons, Pics4learning, and Freefoto. I personally like using Flickr C. C. There are different limits you have with the different websites.  Some will have a symbol that says people can only use your image if they give attribution. That is just one of many more symbols that are used. Now that I have read and watched a video about this I understand this topic better than before.          

The Ways I $pend Money

Here is another post for my 21st Century Skills class. It is about how I spend my money!

I usually spend my money on things like make-up, jewlery, clothes, shoes, books, & etc. Instead of buying more clothes when I have plenty I can save it and put some of it away for my college fund and other long term goals. Books are great, but I could check them out at the library more and save that money for other goals too!

Spring Break 2012!!!

This year for spring break my family and I went Up North!!! We stayed at a condo that was very nice. it was right on the lake! So everyday we went down to Lake Superior and found cool rocks and took lots of pictures of the lake and waterfalls and family! We went hiking on Carlton Peak, Will's Lake, and Lake Agnes ! All were BEAUTIFUL!!! Lake Agnes was my favorite though because we walked right next to Lake Agnes almost the whole time! It's such a pretty hike because no houses or anything can be built on it so it's just nature all around you! We also went to my friends cabin and played games, went on a hike, and had supper together! Here are just a few pictures of our trip!!!



When we left our condo we stayed at a hotel in Duluth! My dad and sisters went swimming! I went shopping in downtown Duluth with my mom and one of my younger sisters! I didn't buy anything though:( There wasn't very many stores open because it's the off season until summer. We ordered pizza for supper and ate it on our hotel beds and watched a hockey game! I love spending time with my family! On the day we were going home we drove across the Aerial Lift Bridge to Park Point! There is a BEAUTIFUL white sand beach by the big lake! It would have been more fun, but it was only about 50 degrees out! Buuuurrrrr!!! I can't wait for spring break 2013!!!
