Know your perfect careers, and which careers are close to the things you like.

By looking at a list of all careers maybe you see some names about the things you like, investigate about those. When you see whats needed for each careers watch your strengths and with the more strengths, the career will fit you.
Summary
Investigating about the careers that exist that best fit for my strengths, I found lots of interesting tests. Within those tests, they check your likes and your strengths which is very important to determine your career. I also learned how important is to like your career, but to also develop something good at it and to know that you are capable of reaching the top in that area. Answering my topic questions is personal, because each one of us has different thoughts and wants, so to answer it you need to do and create tests, and I would recommend the most to look for the list of careers and investigate about your top five. Choosing a career is really important it determines your future and the way you spend your time to be the person you wanted to be.
Question at the end
What happens if you don't like the career you chose or thought you chose the perfect one?

White Hat Hacking

What I know about the Topic before I research
I think that White Hat Hacking is a way or form of hacking. I don't really know about this, but I chose this topic because it looked pretty interesting because of the word "hacking."
What I wonder about the topic before researching (2 questions at least).
What is White Hat Hacking? Is it a form of hacking?
Is hacking a long process how does it start?
Links with useful information
This is a link to know what white hat hackers do, and the difference with the black hat hackers.
Want to know about famous White Hat Hackers... this is the Link. 
Types of Hackers.
Things I learned of the topic...
-5 types of hackers.
-White hat hackers are not bad or intended to do bad security.
-White Hat Hackers is actually a profession, and they contract this hackers to work as security in their companies. 
-Another name for hackers is crackers because they're too good breaking the web.
-Coming from hackers trying to help security companies legally, bad hackers came a long just to get advantage of peoples' life and abuse problems came a long. 
Connects and or relates to my life...
This topic may relate to my life because White Hat Hackers are people helping security, and some are starting to create companies against bad hacking. This is just an example of life because when people are trying to do something good, then they turn it to a bad side and take advantage of it. Just like parents and daughter relationship, they give you advantages but when you take it the wrong side there's a problem, the same happens with hacking, when you get caught you're screwed. 
One last question
How can hackers hack without knowing a single thing about the person? Where do they get or reach the information needed to hack?

Google Day 1

Goals for today...
1. Which are the best resources for 3D modeling.
2. How to start 3D modeling.
3. How much it takes to develop it.

Researching...
http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/25-free-3d-modelling-applications-you-should-not-miss/ In this link I founded different links to create different 3D objects; architecture, animations, cars, and much more!

I chose to do Virtual 3D Art, for this I needed to download the program of it. It takes 5 minutes to download.
Another good resource for 3D is Google Sketchup, you can search it in Google and download it.
I also decided to do 3D Graphic Design. Where you can create 3D company names.It takes patience to install every software for 3D modeling.
While waiting for things to download in my computer, I searched Apps of 3D modeling on my Iphone. There's an app called Sketcher 3D with a cost of $3.00 dollars. In this app you can design objects, buildings and spaces. You can manipulate every object rotating and changing it around to have the final result you wanted. If you download it in your Ipad you have more features and interesting stuff.

I learned how to create a house, just the design.
For next class I would like to learn how to add animals and objects to complete my house.

**** I changed my topic to Photoshop, I already looked at Silvia's links and ideas on her blog to be fresh minded and ready to work.

Google 20% Project

I will work with Silvia Loboguerrero to accomplish this project.

I will like to learn how Photoshop works. Using different techniques skills and programs for this. Using different effects such as 3D or other effects that can make a different perspective for photos. There's different techniques such as liquid editing and enhancing pictures. I love taking pictures, so I would like to learn how editing and its' process works to make a better image.

As my final product I'll show all the before and after images edited and Photoshop. We would like to create a digital album and some collage to show are best creations of images. We will include tutorials, and links that will help other people learn Photoshop, like us.
