My Summer

 Since being back at school, I have had time to reflect on the busy summer that I had. This summer I spent back at my hometown in Coldwater, OH. Honestly, this summer was not one of the more enjoyable summers of my life. I pretty much worked and worked out non-stop all summer long. This summer I was back at Coldwater Memorial Park, in charge of boys' and girls' youth activities. This also brought on other responsibilities as being a "supervisor" whom other workers came to for help. Since I was at the top of management, I had extra duties I had to complete, which were dreadful at times. Even though I was getting paid a little bit more than the other workers, it did still not work that I wanted to complete. Some days I would be out at work for over 12 hours at a time, which was awful. After work, I just wanted to shower and sleep, but I didn't get the chance to even do that. Since football season was fastly approaching I had to go workout every day which wasn't fun after working a full day. Even though I didn't want to do it, I knew I had to do it to be ready for football season. I did get to enjoy a family vacation later in the summer. Other than that, I really didn't do much other than that. To sum it up, I am very happy to be back at school.

  1. I am so sorry that you didn't have a great summer :( and I can totally relate to not wanting to workout but having to prepare for a season. Hopefully you got something out of working that much.

Chapter 1 Material

One of the biggest concepts I comprehended out of the content in chapter one of the introduction of social media is the different advantages and disadvantages of social media. I want to focus on the advantages. Some of the advantages of social media include being able to build your brand, communicating with family and friends, and capturing memories. The most important advantage from the chapter for me is being able to connect with family and friends while also collecting memories along the way. Family and friends are two of the biggest components of my life and they always will be. Being away from my family and friends during college can be very stressful. I am very guilty of relying on my mom and dad to do many things for me. Even though I am a sophomore now, I still am trying to adapt and settle in to do things on my own. Even though I struggle at times, the access to social media has given me the opportunity to connect with my family and friends so I feel like I have a little bit o...

PRSSA Meeting

 For one of my school assignments, we had to attend an event this week around campus with homecoming. Due to my busy schedule this weekend I chose to attend the PRSSA meeting Thursday night. There were some other events to pick from but with my schedule being very busy this was the only event that I could get to go to. In addition to just attending, we also had to live-tweet this event giving updates with key takeaways from the event. This isn't the most orthodox assignment for a class that I get to do, but it was actually pretty interesting. This PRSSA meeting was all about ethics. September is Ethics Month in this organization so it was only fitting that our meeting would be over ethics and how it ties into public relations. For this event, they brought in a couple of guest speakers. These guest speakers were Ronele Dotson and Jo Ann LeSage Nelson. They talked about different types of crises and walked us through different case studies with what they had to deal with. What I like...

Thanksgiving Break

 Right about this time in the semester I really fellow students and I really start to get warn out of school. Schoolwork right around this time always heats up. Many of my classes are holding exams this week which puts on added stress with all of my other activities going on. What I really want and what my of my classmates want to come sooner is Thanksgiving Break. I know I am ready for it. Every day I wake up I am exhausted because I was up late doing homework the night before. I am also on football so the time where I could be doing homework and catching up on some sleep, I am at football and devote my time to that. Even though many students are not in athletics I can tell many of them are mentally drained. Many students are starting to not give sufficient effort to homework or exams anymore because they are just tired of it. I know I fall right into that category. These are a couple reasons why I am ready for Thanksgiving break. Having the opportunity to go home for a week and b...
