 * This page will be purely for journalling of what I work on and reflecting on what I've done. **
 * My goals for this class are to learn more about the Logo application and figure out easier and faster ways to do things. I think it'd be cool to make a picture with it, like a huge turtle maybe. I would also like to learn more about prezi and be comfortable using it in a presentation setting. I would also like to become comfortable with Excel since I don't know much about how to work it. **
 * These are my planned projects that I would like to pursue. **

 ** For Excel, I am awful with Excel, so I kept it pretty simple for the challenge problem that I did. It's hard knowing I can just write somethings out, but Excel is cool in the way that it's smart and can predict what you want it to do next. **
 * I realized I was very bad at journalling throughout my projects. However, I will briefly recap. **
 *  For Logo, this felt quite tedious at times. Doing each individual letter in "Happy Birthday" got a little annoying, especially the letters that had curves instead of straight lines. A lot of the project I would have to start over from a certain point to continue to try to get exactly what I wanted. I was very pleased with the finished product, however. It took a lot of work but it turned out rather nice. **
 *  For Prezi, this was very frustrating at first. It is a little difficult to learn at first when you're a new user, but once you got the hang of it, it was fun to play around with. It takes quite some time to do and arrange, but I believe that Prezi is a very good instrument to use when giving a presentation. **
 *  For Google SketchUp, it was interesting learning all the different things you could do and make. Sometimes it would get frustrating because it wouldn't always work how I wanted it to but I managed to find other ways around that if I could. I can see how this would be a good project for kids because it allows them to build things and explore and widen their imagination. **
