grades from myself

i think i could get an A- in the project. even though i got into this project later than they started, but i have done all the websites and programming for our group, also this was an organization of all the information and pictures that they have for our group.

On the other hand, this was a really fun class and projects that we have done, also i am looking forward to actually test the projects out from an iphone. Thanks a lot Will.

game proposal

my game idea about gps is from a tv show called "prison break". it actually just came up recently of the idea about adding the gps trackers on the prisoner for them to do some missions without escaping. and my game is on both side of police enforcement and prisoners, you can choose either side at the beginning and on the police side, you have to track down those prisoners that with gps trackers on them before they escape from the city; and on the prisoner side, you will have to do things to avoid to get caught by the police and get to the escaping point before time runs out.

story map

I have not been back to my hometown more than 5 years, but I will never forget about the great life I had back in the days, so I figure that I would just do one from my hometown.

Drift....


View Larger Map

I started my walk from a quiet neighborhood on the Franklin St. and 8th St. It is right next to the Esther Short Park, kind of chilly out, but a quit and lovely place for starting my walk.
This is a creative art piece lying right in front of an apartment building, I could use some imagination when I saw this piece. It may not be notice easily, but could be a great point for people who live in here realize that "I'm home."

A peaceful sculpture right in front of the Esther Short Park, my second point of the walk. This park may be small, but it gives me so much feeling of peaceful and lovely, a great place to jog. Also I saw some children were playing in the park with their parents, because I havent seen my parents for 5 years and so, so it made me feel comfortable but kind of upset.
From this point of view, in Vancouver, the last city of Washington across from Oregon, I could see the bridge connect between the states, the thought about another whole different city just right across the river.

The sunset with the lonely street, even though this is my first time walking in downtown Vancouver, but I could still feel the smell of historical in this old town.

The head bank of America, BOA. A huge building in the sunset and lonely street, ironically reflects to the economic crisis right now in the State.

The end of my walk, it's dark now. But in this picture is so colorful that may not even feel it. I dont know what this shop is, but it's pretty and looks comfortable to be in; but the lights are dim, means it's time to head back....

sorry about the delay

sorry for the late posts,......hope it's not too late

Walking in the City

In this article, he uses a lot of beautiful descriptions for his experience, but after all, it made me feel more like "imagination". I feel most of it are just his thoughts......
