Finish Line (5)

7:39 AM

Well, I finished my Ted Talk. I wouldn't say it was amazing but I don't think I did half bad.












I will say, it was rough coming up with a lesson I could share from this experience. Maybe this was because I picked a topic that was too comfortable, maybe I wasn't looking deep enough or maybe I wasn't viewing it abstractly enough. Regardless, I still managed to come up with something, even if it was not ideal. Because of my lack of confidence on what I was talking about I feel as if my talk was too short. When I practiced it was long enough but when I am presenting I have a tendency to speed up or forget to say things, therefore making my talk too short. While my TedTalk was rough in my opinion I do like how my blog turned out.









I have added an Archive tab to the menu to make it more user friendly and I think that I have managed to create a layout that both looks good and is easy to use. I'm also really glad that I have managed to create a pretty balanced aesthetic. The theme is elegant yet simple and my photos look professional and put together. The only thing I dislike about the set up of my blog is how big the header images appear.










The header images take up the entire screen and it makes the actual header seem very small and unimportant. I'm not sure if its the shape of the image or the actual file size but they are way too overwhelming. Once I figure that out, as long as I continue writing posts, I will be content with the outcome of this project. I have lots of ideas (though I doubt all of them will go through) that are in the works and I do believe that I will continue writing Why All the Fuss.

  1. Hey Katherine!! I'm really sad I didn't get to see your TED Talk because I'm sure it was great!! But, I'm really happy for you that you have enjoyed your project and the end result. Blogging can be so much fun and I think it is so cool that you will be continuing to do it! I will definitely keep up with it! What did you end up discussing in your TED Talk? And I have the same problem with forgetting to say thing when under presssure or during a presentation. I try to memorize a script or use notes cards and occasionally glance at that to remind myself of what to present. Maybe that will help?

    Anyway, can't wait to see what you post on your blog!! :)
