This Little Squid Went To Giant Squid School

Ranked #6,579 in Squidoo Community, #399,138 overall

I Graduated From Giant Squid School!

As I was updating my Squidoo pages one day, I realized I had never put together a page for the Giant Squid Back To School Session I attended in 2009. Then I started looking closer at the pages I made ~ all from the heart, with my newly learned skills.

A relatively new Giant (someone with over 50 quality lenses), but not yet a Giant Top100 Club member. The shade of green-ness sufficiently faded to have a little confidence in myself as a writer. Ahhh....nostalgia!

So, while this Giant Squid Back To School session was in 2009, I am making it now to spotlight the pages I made for the class. I'm giving them their due. Want to see them?

Week 1: Assignment ~ Consumer Reports

We used the Hey, MonkeyBrain template to be our own Consumer Reports. Compared 2 products.

So there I was, thumping my pencil on my desk during the first week of Giant Squid School. I have to do what? Compare two products? Holy Squid! What have I gotten myself into?

A list of the best Halloween lenses on Squidoo

What? A SquidBoo what? Now I was twirling my hair and thumping my pencil. What's a SquidBoo? I was just getting used to using some of the available templates and here's a new one ~ the SquidBoo template. And our new lens would be SquidBoo BLASTED???

Week 3: Assignment ~ A Hobby Lens

We all have hobbies that give us lots of enjoyment. So this weeks assignment was to show off your hobby!

OK, NOW I was in my element! I can talk about my crafts all day, heh. Maybe this won't be so hard after all! My crafts are my hobby obsession. Oh, that's what I called my page too!

Week 4: Assignment ~ An Open Letter Lens

Used the guestbook module to supply an area for people to write what they feel.

But I wanted to write an open letter to President Obama! LOL Well, I did the next best thing ~ I wrote an open letter to Santa!

Using SquidVids ~ it was all about the music!

Cool. Just cool. I love music and Enya is one of my favorites. I hunted down my favorite Enya tunes and loved doing it. This is getting easier!
