Chapter #1: The Digital Age

                                                             

Chapter #1:

     Technology. We have all evolved into the digital space especially now. You pretty much can't live without it. We all have now been accustomed to technology for several years. This chapter dives into topics like going viral, the advantages and disadvantages of social media, and all the basics.


    I really enjoyed starting out the class with this chapter. Even though it all made sense for most it was good to get into the basics and really discuss in class. Comparing screen times in class was very interesting to gauge where everybody is at with their screen usage times. It was also fun to discuss how sometimes many random things go viral. Even though many companies work to come up with campaigns to go viral like the Doritos or the still ongoing Aerie Real project.  You never know what could go viral next.


    This chapter also makes me want to learn more and more about the subject of social media and all about this class. I can't wait to dive further into the world of social media.

Week 14: Wrapping Things Up...or So I Thought

Image
     As the semester starts to end like anyone else, I'm looking forward to the summer. I know that it'll be nice to have a break from academics and to work for some money to use the following school year.       Everything has mostly been fine since I got back last Friday. As mentioned I was able to make it to the Greek Olympics. But then my nurse and doctor called me the following Thursday saying some of my typical bloodwork results were not looking so good. So alas I packed up and left Ada again. Thankfully this time I didn't have to be admitted through the emergency department and was able to have my doctors directly admit me which relieved some stress.       Pretty much as soon as I got to the floor they started taking a lot of my blood to run various tests. I also have been attached to fluids to make sure I'm hydrated but walking around with an IV pole is harder than you would think. I have also been taking many additional medications to rule out some issues.

Week 2: Thinking Theta

Image
     Once again it is another dreary week here at Ohio Northern but that's not stopping me from having a great week. If there is one thing about me I love being busy and this week is definitely that. I have several things to do this week. Starting out the week on Sunday with several hours of various assignments for the development of Kappa Alpha Theta. I really LOVE having a position in my sorority. It really has not only gotten me more involved but also helped me to better the chapter. I currently hold the position of the VP of DEI. It turns out that I like it more than I originally thought I would when I was applying to hold an executive position.     Having this position means so much to me as I worked very hard my first year to be able to have the opportunity to hold a position. Over the summer as a new freshman out of my first year of college, I also had the opportunity to attend the Kappa Alpha Theta's National Emerging Leaders Conference. I originally only applied for th

Week 5: Ruby at Northern Recap

Image
     Over this past weekend, my sister drove up to Northern and we had a BLAST! She happened to have a long weekend for Presidents Day so I asked her to come visit me.       As she starts to now look at colleges as a junior in High School I wanted to show her what an average weekend in college looks like for me.       She drove up early Friday afternoon due to the snow starting. Once she got here we first unloaded her car because I had her bring me some groceries from home. Once we did that we moved her car to the visitor lot and got an early dinner at WOW because again I wanted Ruby to really get the collage feel.  We pretty much just hung out around my room and the Theta house over the weekend especially since it was FREEZING and snowing. She of course ended up getting the worst weather of the season while being here. The weather definitely gave her that Northern feel and I think gave her some insight into the college reality. While she was here I also of course took her to MAC so sh
