Globey's

my thoughts on the globeys this year is that i knew that me and Francisco weren't going to get nominated this year mostly because since we split the team with Me Francisco and Steven we only had about 2 to 4 weeks to reconstruct the game we ended up making but congrats to every one that won
(p.s. the song in my imagination fits any one who won)

Nike

Nike. well now i know that not to wear Nike anymore mostly because now that the Nike CEO is "retarded" because he hasn't even been to Indonesia and es saying the living conditions are good, and their wage is livable to be on but that's a total lie, its the exact opposite.

 T-shirt factory
so the t-shirt factory in Malaysia is using forced labor to make t-shirts  for an equivalent to only 6$ a day
but now after the report Nike has removed the workers from the old living quarters into private apartments

☢GOALS FOR 2012☢

My goals for this year are

Globaloria and Gamefication, Game Design, & Game Mechanics.

What do you learn in Globaloria? 

in Globaloria you learn about game design and all about game mechanics

Think about all of the skills you have learned over the past two and a half years. Name at least five of these skills. 



ive learned how to draw in flash, program code in flash, how to understand how to manipulate flash, create animations, and overall how to use flash.


How can these skills prepare you for a successful academic future and how could you use these skills to find a great job? Remember, you do not have to grow up and be a game designer to use the skills you are learning in Globaloria.                            


these skills can prepare me because i plan to work i game engineering or game design

March of the Penguins

1.) what challenges do the penguins have to overcome 
    the penguins are facing death due to cold wind and sub-zero            
    temperatures
2.) how does their habitat change their live-land each day
    for months at a time it will be freezing cold and then it will be warm but during the time penguin fathers and mother die
because of the weather
3.) what types of adaptations do the penguins need to survive brutal weather and  predators 
 they need to have thick warm coats for the cold chilly wind, huddle together to stay warm (witch everybody should know), and need to swim fast away from predators
4.)what is a negative impact that will effect the penguins mating process 
the i caps will be melting so probably the penguins will slip through  or slip and get eaten

the single story (blog post 1)



1.) What does it mean to have a 'single story' about a place or community?


It's when a person is judgemental about a place like east Austin and they think everyone there is in a gang or something


2.)Describe a single story you have heard told about your community. What is missing from that story? How could people learn more about that community?


I've heard a story about Mexican immigration from Mexico and a story that everyone in the south side of Chicago is a gang banger or is bad in general


3.)Describe a single story you have heard about another community. How did you learn that story? How could you find out more about that community? 


i heard a story that allot of people from Mexico try to immigrate to the u.s. and I've noticed when i go to expensive store allot of white people start to look at me weird like im crazy


4.)How could a game let players experience many stories about a place or community?


it could help them understand the view of the single-story and how it changes the view of people
