Well, it's been fun!

Well folks, for anyone that even cared to read this (which i don't blame you at all for not), it's been real, it's been fun, it hasn't been real fun. So i think in the end we've learned some things, but also forgot some things as well. I hope you take care and who knows, maybe i'll start my own real blog sometime just for fun! Thanks again!

ArcGIS gets easier?!

Amazing! Today we actually learned that Arc can have some easy properties to it! We learned how to do a legend, north arrow, title, and scale! All of these things were actually kind of easy! The other cool things was that we also added correct colors. I'm still frustrated with the fact that i'm so far behind. I've never been this far behind in this class before so i don't know if i'll be able to catch up. I'll certainly try!
The last movie i saw in the theaters was Madagascar 2. It was alright. The penguins really made the movie worth it!

GIS and You

Today was much better as far as the learning aspect goes. We learned about GIS...well an extremely abbreviated version. What we did get to do was go around campus and take some measurements on some garbage cans and light posts so we could enter them into ArcGIS. Frustrations come from the fact that i wish we had more time to learn the material...but it is cool!
Now, what will be the toughest thing this week is everything. Not only do i have a physics test i have to take, but for this class i have an arcGis project assignment to finish, a poster to make, a presentation to come up with, and final draft of the paper to make all for this class. Then, for geomorphology i have a ten page research paper i have to write with a powerpoint presentation to give for it too. I don't know how i'm going to get through all of this. So there ya go!

labels in arc

Well, i think my blog posts keep getting more depressing and frantic as the days go by...and this one isn't much better. I'm getting so behind in everything and it doesn't help that i was deathly ill for the entire thanksgiving break and couldn't do anything to get caught up. It's a sick irony if you ask me...literally. So today we learned how to do labels in arcgis and it's cool but i think there is way too much too it than is necessary. It's pretty ridiculous. I don't even have my shapefiles drawn so i had to make a quick one in order to do anything today. So i'm probably going to forget everything i learned today which kills me because i want to learn this stuff...i just have huge research papers in every other class i have and don't have time for this assignment. I just don't. I'm sorry. Anyway, like i said, it was cool to learn how to do the labels and that it can do all of that.
As far as my favorite internet site goes...probably facebook...i dont' surf the internet hardly at all.
