Blog Post #27
An event that I am interested in that's in the world would probally be the summer festivals in Japan. I'm interested in this because it gives you a broader view on how people in the world celebrate. Also I would like a goldfish in one of the games and wear a yutaka and see the shrines. While swinging my lattern around and watching the fireworks, because I am an Otaku.

TED Talk #5
1.) The title of the talk is Todd Humphreys: How to fool a GPS
2.) The speaker of the talk is Todd Humphrey
3.) The talk was Todd Humphreys: How to fool a GPS and it talked about how to trick a GPS. He talked about how their are GPS dots and how unhelpful they were a few years ago. He said how they didn't work inside and how they didn't tell you where you were exactly. But then he introduces the new GPS that will be coming out a few years from now. He explains how it dosen't just tell you what street your on, but on which part of the street your on. Also it can sense the wrinkles on the palm of your hand. Another thing about the new GPS is that it's smaller and portable. But with all this cool stuff that the new GPS can do there is also some bad things that come from it. He said a story about this lady and her ex-boyfriend put a GPS in her car she called the mecanic, the police, and even the FBI. But no one could take it out or find it. He later goes on about how there is the wave bubble and how it creates a bubble around you and protects you from unwanted GPS signals. He said you can buy from a factory and it will only cost a little over $10's but even though it blocks signals. It doesn't just make a button around you but it can make a bubble going in meters upon meters from you. He gave an example saying if you were a captain of a ship and a fog is coming and one of the passengers has a wave bubble. Then the GPS will go blank and it will be just you against the fog. But then he said there is something even better than the wave bubble. He called it a GPS Spoofer it takes the signal that you have and makes a fake one over that so it makes your GPS dot in a different location than in where you are currently at. For example if you were in Disneyland it would say you were in Glendale, Arizona. The speaker even showed us a GPS Spoofer model that he made by himself with his three year old son. He also showed an example on how it worked on his I-Phone. By the end of the video he was talking about how if we were to put GPS on everything then we wouldn't have to wonder where it is or ask people where it is. We would know thanks to the GPS dot and we wouldn't lose anything.
4.) I can apply what I learned from the video is that technology is becoming more and more advanced everyday.

I did not watch the Presidential Debate. I don't know who the candidates are because I didn't watch the debate. But hopefully when it comes to voting that someone who is ready to take charge for presidency will be elected.

Journal Entry #8
My day so far was pretty humorous in my first hour I didn't present today so I felt really happy about that. Then in my next class I took a test, I was prepared for the test because I studied all last night during the volleyball game. Then in my third hour we were doing lots of catching up and now I have homework to do when I get home. I ate at the mexican food line and had a cookie and pink lemonade and sat down with my friends and they showed me their Certificate of Insanity.

Blog Post #25
Yes I have thought of what I want to do after high school. I would go to the University that I want to go to and get my Master's Degree in the fine arts. I want to do this because when I grow up I want to be a Graphic Design artist and make 3D models. Also I want to make my own animations and video games.
