Self-Tracking Project Proposal

Image
Day to Day Self-Tracking Project For my self-tracking project, I have decided to keep track of my time and what I listen to. The data points I will be using will be sleep, time spent on campus, and the amount of time I listen to podcasts. https://www.lastpodcastontheleft.com/ The ways I will be tracking these points will be through the use of my digital watch and an app. I will use the watch to help keep track of my sleep specifically as it will tell me the exact time and efficiency of my sleep.   The app I am using is one of the many we went over in class.  I am using the Ask Me Every app ( https://www.askmeevery.com/ ). The app works fine but I can't have it send questions through text unless I paid money, is probably not expensive but it sending it through email is fine for now. The other 2 data points I am able to track myself. I enter all 3 data points in using the app I mentioned. I believe the correlation I will see at the end of ...

The filmmaker of this documentary makes use of a lot of words used as images. Most of these words are represented in newspaper clippings. When Randall Adams was interviewed he was wearing white which is a subtle way showed that he was innocent. David Harris was ...

About Me and Some of My Hobbies

Painting/Modeling   One hobby of mine that I put a lot of time  and dedication in is modeling/painting.  The bulk of the work I do is mainly Warhammer 40k models. My brother was the person that got me  into the hobby at first. At the start I just bought the boxes of models and I put a few together but I was not really into it that much. I started to paint and customize the models next and I really got to be creative for it and it made  me so much more motivated to do it.  Many days I will just listen to music and paint for some time. Dungeons and Dragons I enjoy being a creative and imaginative person. One way I  get to do this is through playing DnD. This was another  hobby that I did not really enjoy at  first but it eventually grew on me. After I got a feel for the game and  the people I really enjoyed playing the game. I usually play with my brother,  roommate, and a coup...
