SF Giants Game

On April 9th the digital connectors went to AT&T Park to the Giants game. They were playing the Padres and won by the end of the game. It was really fun, I got a really big bag of cotton candy, it was delicious. I was walking around the entire park with Adrianna and Juan. We hung out with Vis Valley digital connectors, they were cool. A lot of people were throwing cookies at each other at the very very top of the place.

Bring it California Event

Yesterday we went to the Bring it on California Event at Valencia Gardens, it was really fun and there was a great turn out, that place was packed. The president of One Economy corporation was there and a lot of other one economy staff. There was food, a lot of food, hot dogs, cake, BBQ chicken, little mini water bottles, man...a lot of stuff!! We registered people on the Beehive and in return we gave them a ticket to be entered in a raffle to win a new laptop. People asked a lot of questions about the Beehive and the digital connectors. Valencia Gardens has really cool animal statues, I sat on the cat shaped one. It was fun..AT&T was there, they gave me a little cool box thingy with a little stapler, pen, and staples. I took it to school today and everybody wished that they went and felt like they missed out. I think that a big amount of people learned about the program and what the digital connectors do in the community and for the community. It was worth going to and for everyone that didn't go, you missed out, GO TO ALL OF OUR EVENTS!!

EA.com Tour

The experience we had when we went to EA games was fun we got to meet new digital connectors from other areas. We also learned what people do there and what they do to make the games. Julie Winn was the women who gave us the tour of the place she took us to different sections of the buildings they even have a game store in there. They also have the games on the walls or pictures i guess you can call it a wall of Each game has a story to it and they get every detail of say a player in the game they get everything to their face and tattoos. There also games based on story's and movies it takes time to make a game and they test dive them before sending it in store. I didn't know there was all this stuff and all this things you had to do for a game or to work in EA games. The thing i liked most about this place was that you can go to school because they have a school in there so you can learn more about using technology. So this was a good experience for me..i just wish we got to play more but it was fun thank you EA games!!

EA TOUR

On Tuesday the 25th of march we went to EA games and took a tour it was great because we got to see things that most people don't see and also we got 50% off all the games that they had in their store but it was weak because I didn't have any money so it wasn't all that great.

I had fun in the tour because they let use play a bunch of games with different systems like the x box360, ps3 also the WII. the only thing that was weak was that they didn't let use play games like we thought we were but i got over it. But i had fun it was a great experience and I had a great time.
