Done

I believe I have now completed all my assignments for both classes. To some degree I am breathing a sigh of relief, but I am not completely finished because there are others that need help in getting their web page completed. When we're all finished, only then I can truly breathe.

Boot Camp

I don't think the professors were kidding when the referred to the first semester as "Boot Camp". The courses were indeed challenging. Many things were neglected throughout the course of the semester.

We're literally down to the last couple days and I'm still trying to get my web page in tact.

Wow.

Tecnological Woes

It is 8:47 am. I have been on this computer for the last hour and a half trying to get clues on the Thoreau assignment. As I sit here making every effort as I have for the past week trying to get this done, I wonder how are people who are not on vacation like myself coping? I could only imagine how difficult this is for them and I sincerely sympathize.

My vacation is winding down and I am already trying to figure out how in the world I am going to do my best on the job and in my classes simultaneously. I can only hope and pray that future classes don't painfully boggle my brain as much as 2600 does. Technology is always challenging for those of us who are simply mediocre at it. I can't imagine what it feels like for those who are not very experienced. LIS 2000 has its own challenges but I am able to see my way through it with far less agony.

In the end I am hoping that with all that is plaguing me with the technological portion of my learning, I am able to master the skills that it offers.

The Heat Is On

As I sit here in this sweltering heat I reminisce on song "96 Degrees in the Shade". In the Virgin Islands summers are very hot even though one can catch a faint breeze from time to time. With this type of heat, it is very difficult at times to concentrate. Most houses on the islands are not equipped with air condition units; therefore, one does not have the luxury of escaping summer's warmth in their homes. Fans render absolutely no relief and all one can do is wear as little as possible in an effort to get some relief.

As the semester winds down the temperature on St. Croix is rising and this makes it hard for me to sit and focus on my reading assignments. I have picked up "Infotopia" at least six times and can't seem to get past the first chapter so I decided to work on my technology assignment until the coolness of the evening offers some comfort.

Kompozer

I am getting extremely frustrated with Kompozer. I cannot figure out or explain why things are disappearing from my web page any time I attempt to make a change or addition through Kompozer. My feed has disappeared. My blog isn't connecting like it was last night and a whole host of other issues are arising as I try to complete the web page.

Web Page Dillema

I have been working on my web page for quite some time. I am unable to see the RSS feed on my page. This assignment is agonizing. There are a lot of ups and down. One time something works and another times they don't. What is going on?

Web Page

Several of us are still trying to complete our web page. Our goal is to stay in this library until it is done and over with.
