Given everything that has happened, I thought it’d be best that I take the time to do this assignment on saying what I am thankful for in 10 seconds.
So here it goes..
After being suspended, I really had more time to think and appreciate what I had but messed up. Hopefully they will have mercy on me.
Thank you Kima
Carver.. Always my partner in crime
So, for my second assignment, I chose a writing assignment. I was scrolling through them and none of them caught my eye. But then I saw the 10 seconds of thanks one. I liked the fact that I could do it from Jimmy’s point of view, especially since in episode 13 he had a lot to be thankful for. Here is my list of what Jimmy had to be thankful for in Season 1, Episode 13:
-Kima is awake!/didn’t die
-D is giving us all kinds of information
-Bubbs calling me McNutty
-We got Wee Bey really easily
-I didn’t tell Rawls where I didn’t want to go
-We got most of the Barksdale people arrested
I figure this one is pretty self-explanatory. There really was no method besides going through my notes and typing this stuff into Word and then copying and pasting it here. So it took me longer than 10 seconds…I’m not Jimmy so I needed a bit of extra time there. But I figured he could write this list in 10 seconds, so I would call it a success.
I went house shopping today. I think I am in love with this backyard!
Check out the video I made about the backyard. While I was taking pictures, I thought about how I really feel about this class. Even though I struggled a little bit in this class, I still enjoyed it.
I would like to thank my MacBook, my wifi, my iPhone 5s and my mobile hotspot for making it possible to pass this class.
ok…here goes:
family, friends, comfortable shoes, bed, good food, headache medicine, headphones, pens that don’t skip
not a bad list…
Bonus: draw a picture of you to complete your list:
<:-) my hair is sticking out….. lol
I did the 10 Seconds of Thanks assignment because I thought that it would be pretty easy to do…it was until I had to start copying and pasting all of the website information and the links and stuff on my chrome book…I really need to learn how to use this thing..the tricks like copying and pasting simple things…those are the things that drive me crazy…I know how to do them on regular computers but they don’t work on simple new technological advancements! :( aaarrrrggghhhh oh welll…I will figure out how to do them but when I have more time…. :)
I liked the ds106 site because it is very useful for lots and lots of information and for creating links between websites.
My Ten Second Thank You
I chose to complete the 10 Seconds of Thanks Challenge.
The Assignment Directions specify that I set a timer for ten seconds and write a list of everything I am thankful for. I reset the timer for another ten seconds and drew a sketch of myself (see the above image).
Note: I believe at least twenty seconds would make this a more fruitful endeavor.
For my second blog post, I chose to complete the 10 Seconds of Thanks challenge.
In accordance with the assignment directions, I set a timer for ten seconds and using pen and paper, then wrote down everything for which I was thankful. (There was way more that I could have listed, but ten seconds went by very quickly.)
Afterward, I set the timer for another ten seconds and drew a picture of myself. (Yes, the assignments specified this as well.) I took a photo of it to insert here.
Since very few people can read my handwriting, I have transcribed my list for everyone:
I am grateful for family, friends, life, learning, opportunity…
For this assignment, I had to write the things in which I am thankful for in 10 seconds and then draw a picture of what I listed within 10 seconds as well.

10 Seconds of Thanks
Family, Friends, Health, My dog.
1. Using a timer, write what you’re thankful for in just 10 seconds! Anything and everything that you can think of being thankful for is fair game, but stop at 10 seconds.
2. Share what you’ve written on a blog, wiki, or some other digital space that others can comment on.
3. Bonus! Complete a 10 second drawing of yourself to accompany your writing, inspired by the November 19th, 2012 Daily Create!
