The first week of classes is always an interesting one, filled with more chaos then expected while adjusting to new classes and routine. I learned that I’ll really need to focus on time-management this semester, especially to keep up with the fast-moving nature of a course like this! Most of my time for the class … Continue reading Weekly Summary: Week One

It is the end of week one. This week was not too stressful, I think because we were setting up our platforms of communication, and I already had accounts in all of the platforms. It was not hard setting up a subdomain for this class, because I had another class during the summer where I … Continue reading Weekly Summary

What a week! I thought that this class would be easy since it’s a 100 level class… but ignored the fact that technology hates me. Setting up my social media accounts was much more challenging than I thought it would be. I had NO idea how to work soundcloud, slack, or a domain. It took …

I hate Instagram. Is a desktop app really necessary? Really? And I couldn’t even get it to work, I had to use my phone. Making a post was a HUGE PAIN. That was what I learned and what frustrated me this week. My social media rage aside, I also learned how to set up a…

What Happened? Last week, I said that I would be trying to cut my soda intake in half. While I was able to manage the first half of the week with only one late night Dr. Pepper, this last stretch kicked me in the teeth. Over the last forty-eight hours, I have drunk four Dr. …
