Evolution of a Graphic

     Ciao, Candies! I am still not feeling well, if you read my last post. I also somehow injured my ankle, so yay. Today I decided to do a new type of post, so make sure to comment and let me know what you think. Let's get started!

I always use Canva or PicMonkey to edit my graphics; today I'm using Canva.

I start with a layout from Canva's selection usually, but sometimes I use custom dimensions.

Next, I choose a template. I don't always do this, but it is an easy way to make a clean-looking image.

Templates are displayed on the left.

Once I have chosen a template, I customize it to say what I want.

Thank you for reading and make sure to be back next week. Bye!

Hello Summer! *cough cough*

       AAAAAAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Hello, you guys. I'm sick. And I got off fro school yesterday. So I can now be sick in peace. Yay. Next year, I go to Thornton Junior High, which I am very excited for. But really, what is up with the weather here in the Bay Area of California. Like, what? It was cloudy and raining a few days ago, colder than most days in fall, and today I almost got a sunburn. I am going to keep this post short since I am sick (or just lazy, it's a mystery) and... I have no ideas. Great. I am sure my fellow bloggers can relate. Oh wait!

                                  What to do when you are bored over the summer:

            Play agar.io in a party with your friends while videochatting on a different tab so you can hear their reactions while playing yourself.

                 Start a blog. Really simple, just go to blogger.com and sign up. It's free.

     Read my blog every Friday. (shameless promo)

Sorry for the trashy post, but my idea drought is worse than the decade-long drought in California.

*cough* BYE! Now get outta here. (JK) 

Nutty Candy Blogging Challenge

     Hey y'all! Since there are so many blogging challenges out there, I decided to add to the cacophony. I present... The Nutty Candy Blogging Challenge!

Rules:

1. Mention and link the person who nominated you, and the creator of this award (me).

2. As a blogger, write about a challenge you overcame, something that came easily to you, a favorite memory from blogging, and something you want to change.

3. Nominate some bloggers to do this challenge.

     A challenge I had to overcome was coming up with post ideas. Something that came easily was actually writing the posts because I wrote as if I was talking. I was really happy when I hit 20 followers, but I get sad when I know I haven't put out my best work.

Nominees:

One Lovely Blogger Award

     Yes, I know I didn't post last week. I had 2 projects due and we were going somewhere for Memorial Day weekend, so no hate, please!

     I was nominated by TargetGirl from targetgirlonline.blogspot.com to do the One Lovely Blogger Award.

     The rules are as follows:

1 - Compose a post based on this award!

2 - Nominate no more than 15 bloggers to participate!

3 - Share 7 facts about yourself!

4 - Let your nominees know about it!

     Facts about me:

1.  I am very indecisive and will spend hours shopping all like, "Should I get it? No, too expensive.          Actually, nah, it's fine. But it's not pink! Well duh, half of my wardrobe is pink. But I like pink! Or      do I...?"

2.  I play the clarinet and piano and have been playing some kind of instrument for half my life.

3.  I have a strange memory; I can remember things for school, but I forget to do everyday things like      drink water.

4.  Both grandparents on my mom's side of the family are doctors.

5.  I have been to 7 countries in total, including airplane stopovers.

6.  My initials sound like 'envy' if you say them really fast.

7.  I am a freak about gymnastics; I know things that only hardcore fans would know. For example, Olympic alternate Mykayla Skinner participates in NCAA gymnastics for Utah and is ranked 3rd in the country. She is also the first one to do a double twisting double back tuck in women's' NCAA.

And the nominees are...
