Step by step

1. 1. • iOpen the cardboard box so it lays flat, then measure it. You want the box to be at least 45 nches wide and 60 inches high.
      • 2
        Place the cardboard in front of you in a vertical layout. Use the bottom edge of the flattened box as the bottom side of a rectangle that is 45 inches long and 15 inches high. Draw the rectangle, then draw dividing lines inside it at 15-inch intervals to make three 15-inch squares.
      • 3
        Extend the lines up from the middle square in Step 2 an additional 45 inches. Divide it into three 15-inch squares. Finish by drawing a horizontal line at the top of the third square. You should have a T-shaped drawing, made of a total of six 15-inch squares.
      • 4
        Cut out the T-shape and turn it so it looks like an upside down T. Fold back the two squares that "cross" the T until they touch each other behind, forming a triangle. Rotate the cardboard so the triangle sits on the ground. This is the base of your chair.
      • 5
        Fold down the cardboard that now sticks straight up, so it sits on the triangle and is parallel with the ground. The square sitting on top of the triangle is the seat. Fold the last two squares at a 90-degree angle, so they stick straight up.
      • 6
        Press the top square down so that it forms a double-thick chair back. Use whatever means you like to secure the fold. What was once a cardboard box is now a chair. Have a seat

using the blog

My experience on the blog so far is coming along. At first i had some errors and i was confused on the setting. now i have got use to it and know how to function everything we have learned about the blog. It is a time where i can express about how i felt about a certain project that we did. As i use it more i learn new things about it and all the things that we can do on the blog.  I like the blog because it lets you customize your profile and you have your own URL. Also if we wanted to tell our friends our thoughts on their posts we can comment on it.I have the requirements except ah couple. once i have all of my requirements my profile will be ready for  people to visit it.  I like the fact that i learned what a good and a bad blog was. My classmates comment on my profile and tell me the good and bad. That helps me because i fix my mistakes and take any advice on building a great page.

Good and Bad blog

 A good blog has all of the requirements needed. also on a good blog the words and post are easy to read.  the back ground is not very busy and it has the correct width on the page.  also a good blog has links that people can understand and they have their links underline. However a bad blog is the total oppisite. people have a very busy background and it is hard to read. People that have bad blogs have alot of different colors.  that means it is hard to read what that posted because of the fact that it was too busy.  Over all my blog is pretty good. I have to make a few changes in my settings. I do not have a 800 x 600 width for my blog. also i have to change the colors of some of my links. i say that because you should'nt have different color links.  all of your links should be one color. with that said i have to fix my mistakes on my blog.  my background is acceptable. it is not too busy where visitors will not be able to understand what i posted. 

1902 glider project!!!!

the 1902 glider project was very chanllenging. building something from paper and the other materials you reciave is kind of hard. we did not get that many materials to help us build the glider. it showed me how to be steady on things like that and also have patience. i say that because if you do not have patience then you will ruin the glider or you will give up.  also the wings had to be the same length or the glider will not fly right.  you have to have every part that is included on the glider. they all have a job to do from supporting the flying or holding it together.  to get stronger support we used toothpicks.  when it all was done my glider looked like a good detailed 1902. my weakness in the project was getting the report done.  i had to finish up glueing toothpicks on the glider and i did not have time to complete my report.  to me that was the hardest part.

What is blog

a blog is something apart of the social network. it helps family, friends, or close people look at your post that you update. also a blog lets you express the way you feel about certain things or situations.  if you do not want to open up to any person, you can come to your blog and say whatever you feel. it might sound strange but alot of people in the world choose social networks such as blogging over people to tell their deepest secrects or feelings. thats what i think blog is
