Future BW students

Don't worry. This class is going to be good. Angie is great and so is the class.

When you begin to work and find a client for your project, I suggest you form a group that you like. You will be working with these people all semester so make sure you all get along and everyone is willing to do their share of work. I had a great group and we all became good friends. Communication is always very important when dealing with your client and having good connection with them is key. Even though it may seem like a hassle sometimes doing this project, it actually is a great opportunity to build your ethos and gain experience for your resume. You will be successful in this class if you do your work. She does not ask a lot from you, and doing the assignments will do nothing but benefit you. I was forced to do my resume for this class, and now Im so thankful. I also learned other skills like how to write a memo, formal and informal letter writing, and how to design a web site. This class was very beneficial and there is not a better teacher than Angie. She wants you to succeed and is very helpful.

Christmas!

This year for Christmas we decided to have a smaller year and take a family trip somewhere. We are going to New York City! My parents and my brothers and sister are going from the 18th-21st. I have been to New York a few times but never over Christmas. Our whole family is so excited and it is going to be great to spend time with each other and have fun together! All of us kids are really close in ages and are getting to the ages where we are becoming really good friends and get along with each other :) haha. Each night we have planned to do something different. We are going to go ice skating at the Rockafeller Center, we are going to see the Rockets, and have a nice family dinner. I am so excited to go shopping with my mom and sister and walk around the city at night. I know it's going to be like I jumped into a movie. Christmas time in New York is going to be great. It is such a great atmosphere and hopefully there will be snow!
