It's finally here

The last week of spring semester is finally here. I can’t wait to have a break from school. Even though is a short break since I already signed up for summer classes I am sure I will enjoy it. The last week of school has been hectic, but I always keep everything in control. All my classes are in order and I’m expecting good grades on all of them. This has been one of the most productive semesters at the U of U since I recently quit my job and decided to go to school full time, and the transition felt great, since I have more time to really concentrate on what is important, my education. I have learned a lot from my classes and in particular I enjoyed learning a lot about designing websites in my Writing for New Media class. Oh yeah and Blogger is a new thing I’m sure I will keep using. Well I hope all of you students keep going forward in your own pursuit of happiness and I hope I will see you around the U.

Scrawny Johnny wants to learn about triathlons

Ok here's the informational web game I created. It took me a while and actually needed more time. Im planning on going back and working some things. I am also planning to make it a little bit more informational, I only specified the info about the three sports involved in a triathlon. Hope you like it!

My business

Me and my brother own a t-shirt printing business.  We started about 2 years ago. Its name is AlphaInk. We enjoy doing this  as a hobby, but it has grown to give us back some money. We silk screen t-shirts, hats, business cards, water bottles, mugs etc... We are in the process of buying a embroidery machine, so we can expand our cliental. Me and my brother contribute differently towards our business. I design and print the t-shirts, he finds the different companies that would like our services and he puts the money. We work on our printing business when we have spare time, but right now it has been hard, since Im going to school full-time and he works and goes to school full-time. We had a few clients that have ordered t-shirts from us. This clients are usually friends that have their own business. One of the main ones is a sushi restaurant own by Curt. The name of the restaurant is called Simply Sushi. Curt ordered 100 t-shirts for his business. He ordered white long sleeve t-shirts with the Simply Sushi logo in the middle and in the back part the Simply Sushi fish. The process that involves creating this type of t-shirt with two colors is the same process I have described recently on my blog, but using two different screens for the two color. Me and my brother will continue on. Hopefully one day it will grow to be something more.
