Week 3 Activity 4- Widget

To choose a widget for this activity, I chose the most popular post option. I thought this widget would get more people interested in my blog causing it to spread. If people don’t like the ones under the widget they can look at my other ones, but I thought this would be the most useful.

Week 3 Activity 5- Using Images

Throughout this experience, I haven’t learned much about images. I know that yeah they are used to show people things, but in blogs you have to cite them and tell if others can use the image. In my opinion, this activity is pointless because telling what you have learned about images just seems like a waste of time to me. I really don’t comprehend why we need to understand about images, but I mean it’s a blog so anything can happen.

I’ve always wondered when I was younger what it would be like to be a mouse when you were being chased by a cat. This week, I thought it would be perfect to talk about this. Whenever I was 4 or 5, I remember watching Tom and Jerry and thinking, “What if I’m the mouse in this show?” I mean yeah that’s pretty cool you are a mouse and all, but you would have that cat chasing you. Just imagine your puny little mouse body compared to this “gigantic” cat animal chasing you for no reason. I guess it would be scary and you would just run with all of that adrenaline pumping. Well, what if you were a mouse and didn’t have a cat, but the open world. Now that’s a whole new conversation I could get into. Too long. What point I’m trying to make is to just imagine. Put yourself in the situation of Jerry and visualize it.
