Week 6- Plan

On March 14, 2014, my English teacher talked to us about how we should have a plan for our 20% project. Which is true because I think that most of us does not even have a plan. He also told us that we will be presenting starting May 29, 2014. Moreover, he showed us a video of how we should present. Now back to the plan, our plan is to take more macro pictures, so that we can show tons of the pictures during our presentation. My partner, Divina made a website, so that she can also put pictures there. My other partner, Gino will be running our Instagram account. And I made a Vine account to also share macro videos that i have taken. We believe that the plans that we came up with will help us to have a successful project. Also, I came up with an idea take a picture of my fellow classmates' eyes. Luckily, many of them wanted their eyes taken with the macro lens. Moreover, they were suprised when the saw their eyes up close and thought it was really cool. Please also follow us at out Instagram and Vine account @_macroworld

Week 3- Chocolates

Last week's weekly topic was spider webs; This week is chocolates. And I will be telling you some fun facts about chocolates. A recent study indicates that when men crave food, they tend to crave fat and salt. When women crave food, they tend to desire chocolate. Aztec Emperor Montezuma drank 50 golden goblets of hot chocolate, dyed red and flavored with chili peppers, every day. Chocolate syrup was used for blood in the famous 45 second shower scene in Alfred Hitchcock’s movie, Psycho, which actually took 7 days to shoot. The average American consumes more than 10 pounds of chocolate every year. 76% of Americans say the ears of the chocolate bunnies should be eaten first. 5% think chocolate feet of the bunnies should be eaten first. 4% think the chocolate tails should go first. One ounce of milk chocolate has only a little more caffeine than the amount of caffeine in a cup of decaffeinated coffee. White chocolate has no caffeine. Are you amazed yet? If you want to know more about chocolates, please visit http://morkeschocolates.com/chocolate-facts. 

Week 4: Social network

This week, I have been very busy fixing and organizing our instagram page. Each week, we will have a weekly topic, and we will post at least three pictures. For me, it was very hard to think of deep quotes to put as a caption, so that we get people's attention. The other challenges are that it was very hard and it takes time to gain likes and followers because I think not everybody is interested in macro pictures. Fortunately, many photographers followed us and likes our pictures. On the other hand, thinking of a username took us very long to figure out, because we had to think of something unique, and very easy to remember.  Then we came up with the username "_macroworld". My partners and I agreed that the pictures we post on instagram are 100% ours! That means we wont steal pictures from other users or get it off the internet. Below is a preview of our instagram page; Our username is _macroworld, so please do not hesitate to follow us. We follow back!
