Core One: Part One

My literacy, like anyone's literacy, could always stand for improvement. As for as Work-Oriented programs go I have successfully mastered (and by mastered I mean that I can competently maneuver the program) the majority of Microsoft Office. The Word, PowerPoint, OneNote, Works and Publisher features I can work on without batting an eye. Excel on the other hand does present a slight problem, I can use the basics and although I am aware of what else it is capable of, I have had some problem with committing these skills to memory.
When it comes to more media related components I feel that I am right in the middle. I can, with the help of a program, create a web page. I know basic HTML, Photoshop, several editing programs and music composition programs. I am a Jack of all Trades in this situation, but a master of none.

When it comes to "for-fun" activities I tend to revert away from technology by choice. I would much rather curl up to a book than the Wii system. I can maneuver a Wii, but find it troublesome. I love my Sims3Computer Game, but hardly have the time for it. I do enjoy my time on the internet, but primarily the Internet is for information and communication. I use to post my Poetry to the web, however, with copyright problems, I don't feel comfortable enough to do that anymore. I would love to learn software such as FinalDraft to enhance my art, but have not yet got that far.
For now, I resign to say that I am a user of tools, rather than a creator.
