H:\My Pictures\Drafting\Exotic Travel Site\index.html
Here is the Exotic Travel Website I made from scratch on Dreamweaver. It took quite a while, and I'm pretty happy with the results. I also made all the banners at the headings of the pages. Enjoy!
This is officially the most funnest project we have done in Infotech yet!
Christmas is always my favourite time of year. Every year my family, my cousins , my Aunt and Uncle, my Grandpa, my Great aunt and my Great grandma get together for 3 whole days (Christmas eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day! It is so much fun (especially family games... home-made charades!). This year, we are going to my aunt and uncles house in Salmon Arm for Christmas. They have huge hill in their backyard for EXTREME sledding. For Christmas, I would like some clothes or books...and thats about it : ) except for chocolate. Chocolate is always good!
Since it is now FREEZING cold and winter is definately here, I plan to deal with the cold in two ways. Plan #1 is to wear tons of large fuzzy comfortable sweaters, my favourite touque and my olympic mittens! Plan #2 is to light my wood fireplace at home and read a book infront of it, while everyone else freezes outside. I personally prefer plan #2! I am very excited for the opening of Silver Star tomorrow! Even though I am not a big fan of the cold, I still enjoy skiing (especially when it is beutiful and sunny up at the hill). Another thing I am VERY excited for is Christmas!!!! and almost even more importantly WINTER BREAK : )
The only season I dislike is Spring but I still like parts of it (the sunny, green, flowery part). In order, my favourtie seasons are #1- Winter, #2 Fall #3- Summer but they are all very close : ) Here are some things I like about my three favourite seasons:

I am extremely excited for halloween! Not that I will be doing anything exciting, but it is my favourite holiday besides christmas! For halloween, I plan to dress up as an 80s person. I have some pretty interesting clothes picked out including black and red tights...For the actual halloween night I am probably watching a non-scary movie with my friends and eating junk!
This Photoshop project was called Visual Color Change. This project was one of the easier ones because it only took me about 15 minutes. I also think that the overall effect of the color change is very neat considering the time it took me to do it.
This Photoshop assignment was called (big surprise) 3DText. Out of all the projects I did, this one took the longest. I really liked the selection of different options you could have for this project. Unlike other projects, you can make this one more personal.
This Photoshop project is called Motion Effects. This project was pretty easy and only took about 10 minutes. With this picture, it was harder to get a clean-looking edit, but I liked the fact that you could change what speed the horse it seeming to go at.
I made this picture by combining a squirrel picture and a shark mouth. I am really happy about how it turned out! It is a perfect combination of cute and scary! It was actually quite easy to combine these, so I am going to show my brothers. I think that they will like it!
For Thanksgiving this year, I am in Vancouver for a soccer tournament. On one hand, I am very disappointed that I will be missing turkey dinner at home with my family. It is always a special time of year for everyone. On the other hand I am very excited for the tournament. This will be my first tournament with my new team, and we are looking pretty good already. Also, I will not really be missing turkey dinner. The Grandparents of one of the girls is putting on a huge turkey dinner for the whole team and I am really looking forward to it!

I created this image out of old magazine pictures. I really like how the words correspond with the picture and how the magazine clippings show up so well. All in all, I think the overall effect of the picture is pretty good.

After I scanned this picture of my hand, I changed it up a bit on Picasa Picture Editor. I made the shadows more prominent and changed the picture to a sepia color. I really like how the hand looks in the different color. The sepia creates a less modern looking image.
My favourite part of this scan is the feather. I really like how defined it turned out after I edited the picture on Photoshop. To get this effect I applied the poster edges setting (under Filters-Artistic) to the photo and got the black outlined edges!
Ever since I was little I always have loved dolphins. It was one of my favourite things to go down to the Vancouver aquarium and see the dolphin shows and tanks. But then I saw The Cove by Louie Psihoyos. The Cove is a documentary about a secret cove in Taiji, Japan were dolphins are illegally and unhumanly slaughtered for meat and shows in aquariums around the world. This film really opened my eyes to how dolphins are being treated. I would like to base my website on dolphin treatment around the world, with a similar theme to this movie. Here is The Cove website if you'd like to learn more http://www.thecovemovie.com/home.htm.
I have only been in this class for 3 weeks and I have already learned how to use a lot of new programs. I think I am doing pretty well with my projects considering that I have only ever really used computers for research and e-mail. The projects I am most proud of are the 10 different pictures, my name plate and my copyright project. I was really happy about how all the pictures I took turned out. Something I really need to work on is describing my pictures more. The description can really help people view the image differently or understand it more.
This logo caught my eye because of the bright colors that are emphasised when put against the black background. Also, the random lines used to make the coffee cup give a crazy appearance and feeling (sort of like caffeine).
I liked this logo because the orange man riding the bike really pops out due to his bright colors. The shark fin put on the mans back suggests intensity, and also emphasises the name.
I chose this logo because I thought the picture and name were extremely creative. The warm colors create a savanna-like atmosphere, and the picture of the lion adds to that.

I chose this picture because of the color and shape choice. It is cool how the dog prints and footprints have been fitted together. Having these prints together suggests that this company is very dig friendly and kind to animals.

I chose this logo simply for its unique design. I am not sure what the picture is of, but the design really catches my eye because of the use of different sized circles. For me, the picture seems electronic and new.

I like this logo because of the relationship between the name and the picture. I think the apple with the monkeys face is very cute, creative, and emphasises the name. Using a cute cartoon makes this logo also seem friendly . I think that more people would use this program because the logo suggests it is easy to work with.

I chose this logo because of the originality of the picture and name. The picture made the name more memorable and drew my eye in because of the odd combination of an elephant and an enveleope. This logo is effective simply because the picture is unusual.

--This picture caught my eye because of the unusual view of the school field it provides. I really liked the angle because it is parallel with the grass, making the goalpost seem really tall.

--I liked this image because of the colors and perspective. It is really neat how the sun has been changed to look purple and the trees are all silhouettes.

--I like this picture because it is a great example of a silhouette. It is beautiful and I love the perspective it provides. The birds really stand out in this picture because of the editing done to the image.
I can never really decide what my favourite movie is! Here are just some of the differents catagories of movies that I enjoy:
Kung Foo Panda
Although this movie is considered a kids movie, I absolutely love it, and having Jack Black as the Panda always helps!
Action:
- Star Wars
- Avatar
- Pirates of the Carribean
Horror:
I never watch horror movies because they absolutly freak me out!
Mystery:
- Sherlock Holmes
Romance:
- Leap Year
- Penelope
- P.S. I love you
Thriller:
Harry Potter. I am a Harry Potter fan and have read all the and seen all the movies. Even though most movies are horrible compared to the book, the producers actually did a good job with most of the Harry Potter movies. I am very excited for the 7th movie (coming out in November). Check out the trailer below!
I love all the Harry Potter movies and books. Can't wait for the 7th movie!
For my IT 10 class we were assigned a project to take 10 different types of pictures. Here are my favourites:
***All these pictures were taken by Jenna Rever and downloaded on 09-21-2010***
One Color Emphasis- I like this picture because of the similarity of colors. It is interesting to think that these creature are are almost the exact same color of our skin, when they are dried. I think that starfish are really neat creatures. This particular starfish was given to me by my friend, Rachel, as a souvenir from her trip sown the Oregon coast.
Whenever my family or I are planning to go to a movie, we always check Flixster. The ratings are a lot more accurate (and unbiased) than most movie theatre ratings. This site also has all the new movie trailers and summaries. My dad even has it as an app on his iPhone!

I met someone this summer that had this whole commercial memorized! It was hilarious to watch him (and hear him) get the tone of voice and facial expressions exactly like the guy in this commercial : )
Awesome Dog (Online Image)
I chose this picture because I thought it was really cute. I love dogs and this picture was too adorable to pass up!

I picked this picture because I thought it was beautiful, majestic and I have always wanted to go to Ireland. The the landscape and castles there are amazing!(according to the pictures and movies I have seen)
This weekend I had Y-League soccer tryouts on Rutland sports fields, in the rain, for an hour and a half. Y-League is the soccer team for the Thompson Okanagan, and this is the first time I have tried out for this team, so I was nervous. The tryouts turned out to be pretty fun, and it was nice to be playing soccer again. I still have two more tryouts next weekend, and I sure hope it isn't raining again!
The first week of grade 10 is over! I am already looking forward to the volleyball season (first practice was on Thursday) and playing in the senior band. Even though I already have homework, I am happy to be back at school with my friends. I didn't get to see all of them enough this summer! This semester I have French, English, drafting, socials and band but I am looking forward to next semester because I have science and gym. In my opinion the summer went by way to fast. It feels like we only had 2-3 weeks off!
