Blog entry #3 Social Media

 I think we can all pretty much agree that social media has tremendously changed in the last couple decades. If you’ve been living under a rock and haven’t noticed; I’ll be happy to point out all the neat tricks and tools you need to know. All of this information is coming from  Status update , I found this article really interesting and it immediately caught my attention.  The first thing a user should do is find a picture to upload. This may sound easy but it goes a lot deeper then finding any random picture. It has to be appealing to other people so they like it. Second you need approval from your friends; sometimes a second or third opinion helps point out flaws on pictures.  The next step is actually uploading the picture to social media. A user can expect to get around 2 likes per minute and 1 comment every 10 min. But there’s a trick to this step also. Users want specific type of comments such as “ Beatiful”, “ stunning”, “ Gorgeous”, Ect. Typically these co...

Blog entry#2 Coping with Brothers and Sisters

Image
Get out of my room! Take off my shirt! Leave me alone! If you have brothers or sisters these are all commonly used phrases. A house with more then one child is bound to have some problems. Whether the youngest child thinks the eldest gets more freedom or borrowing and not returning items. But your siblings can’t be that bad, can they? Here are a couple reasons why siblings tend to fight and how to resolve it.     Sometimes brothers and sisters can become jealous of each other. For example, if your sibling is better at card games then you, it might make you jealous, especially if they keep winning. Although your probably proud of your sibling for being so good at cards, it’s normal to feel a little jealousy too. It may make you feel better to focus on yourself, rather then comparing yourself to your siblings.       Competition between siblings isn’t always a bad thing, sometimes it keeps you working hard- like when your on the softball field. If your sibl...

Blog Entry #1: More About Blogs

 What’s your opinion on blogs? Have you ever read one? Most likely if you scroll through the  internet you’ve come across a couple.  Not all blogs are the same; professional corporate and personal are all examples of blogs. A professional blog that I frequently visit is TMZ . This is a very popular blog because it has all the drama and information about celebrities. This type of blog excites readers because it gives them a feeling of staying in the loop.  Another popular blog is Huffington Post ; this blog is about politics, news, and weather going on in our world today. This blog usually intrigues readers interest because they learn relevant information. On the other hand, some people choose not to read blogs about our world today because they’re too faint hearted to read it. Finnaly, that brings us to the last blog  Dear Conquette . This humorous blog is different from the others because it’s a personal blog. The audience asks the author questions and ...

 Hello everyone! My name is Haylee Reed, I’m 19 years old, and this is my second semester here at GCC. I’m taking classes here in hopes to obtain my Bachelors degree in Nursing. Here you’ll be able to find out a little more about me, my interests, and my goals.  Growing up I was the oldest of 4 girls, I have a big family and were all pretty close. To stay out of trouble I invested my time in softball; after playing four years I decided to umpire and learn the game more in depth. This hobby is so important to me that now I coach my younger sisters in hopes softball keeps them out of trouble too. If you want to learn more about softball and the rules you can click  Here . Here is a picture of my sisters and I during our younger softball years.   My goals for myself are to complete my schooling and become a respiratory therapist. This interests me because my dad has emphysema and I want to learn how to help him and others with the same problem. Emphysema is a di...
