I Think I Have my Project!
After some thought over the last few days, I think I have come up with a project idea. I went home for the weekend, and during a family dinner, my grandma was talking about ways that she can save her recipes. She has most of them written down but she maybe only has one copy […]
Not Quite Sure Where to Start
Hiya! Within my Applied Digital Studies class, a part of the final project is blogging. I think blogging our process is great. Its really nice to see things in writing and what was going through others head. I personally like to see other people’s process on big projects like this. I take it as a chance […]
The Full UMW Console Experience
This week in my Games and Culture class, we were tasked with exploring the UMW Console Living Room. The living room is a replica of a 1980s living room. It showcases the technology that was popular during that time. The room is really cool. I loved exploring the old technology and it was really cool to […]

Finishing Up!
This is so bittersweet! My last post for wire106 and ds106 (hopefully not ds106)! This semester was so much fun and its all thanks to this class! Ds106 was my favorite class I’ve taken so far here at UMW and I’m really glad I decided to take it. I was on the fence over the summer […]
Move Away From the Cookie Jar
“Stop! Move away from the cookie jar!” Everytime some one opens me, I say this. Every. Single. Time. Its so ANNOYING!
