Reflection (Practical 3)

For lesson today, Practical 3.

We learnt how to use the world-known search engine, Google. At first, i wasn't really impressed because i thought that Google is just like other engines that can only search  for your desired topic with only accurate words, but i was wrong. From this practical, i learnt how to search with keywords and variations of my topic.
I find the auto-complete search bar function is really a great help to the user too.

When participating in the discussion forum, i felt like i am just a person giving my thoughts and comment on the topic and also if possible, i will suggest some ideas. Definitely it is helpful for my research because there are also other people around the world giving feedback regarding the topic. I don't really feel anxious when talking to strangers on the net. At the very least, they don't know where i am staying at and doesn't have any of my contacts. So i think that it is rather safe.

Citations are references to sources from the net/people. It tells people whether the work is done by someone else or yourself. More of like to give recognition to the original wellsprings of those idea when using another's quotes/work/article.

I shall end here.
Seeyou Again!!!

$5OO $___$

500 dollars !?

heh, im given 500 dollars for shopping! after much consideration, ive decided to get a good bathroom shower head for myself. Imaging yourself all worn out from work and when you return home, the first thing that you want to do most is to head towards the bathroom to enjoy a refreshing bath. Nothing beats a refreshing bath at home with a shower head that is designed to make consumers feel like they are taking a shower in the rain.

Price: GBP 59.88

Approximately S$ 121.69

-Business/ Marketing
   -The site shows certain product that is on sales.





For the second item, i would like to get a jacket to keep myself warm when working in air-conditioned rooms or even when i visit countries that are cold. I prefer clothings with checkered box design and also in dull colours like black, grey, brown and navy blue.

Price:GBP 26.99

Approximately S$ 54.85

   -The site shows certain product that is on sales.





The third item in my shopping list is a Canon photo printer. I like taking 
photos together with my friends and family when we go out for gathering or even 
when there is a wedding dinner. 
SELPHY CP800 
Price: $199



-Business/ Marketing
   -Canon is a well-known company that produces electronic products like camera, 
     printer, camcorder, etc.. 
   -Therefore they are getting business from selling their products online.



The last item that i will get is a pair of shoes that are comfortable. Navy blue is the colour that
i think that will go along well with my clothings as most of them are dull colours.

OMMY BAHAMA SHOES GRAND HARBOR NEW MEN

Price: US$49.50
Approximately S$ 64.60

-Business/ Marketing 
   -The site shows certain product that is on sales.



Total up: S$199
                    S$ 121.69 
                    S$ 64.60 

                  +S$ 54.85   
                  S$ 440.14   


Which gives me a balance of $59.86.      
I guess the balance will all go to meals and transportation fee for the shopping 
trip.



Reflection
I will be talking a little on what i have learnt today for practical 1.
With help from this practical, i now understand that there are different categories of internet  resources like for example, Organisational website, Blog, Magazine/Journal and a Discussion forum. Now, i can understand what the site's purpose is and tell what category the resource is.

hehe, i shall end my post here. 
see you again!
