Week 13: Thanksgiving Break Time!

Hi everyone! I hope you all are getting through this week.


I am so ready for this week to be over, and then I can go home and enjoy my break. I know for me that the week before a break from school drags on. 


My plans for Thanksgiving break include first getting some hours at work because I desperately need money. I also plan on catching up on my senior thesis/capstone because that presentation is quickly approaching and I honestly have neglected this project which believe me I know is pretty bad. 


My more fun plans include going to see the new Wicked: For Good movie with my mom and Ruby which I have practically been waiting for all year since the first movie was released last November. I also plan on seeing my childhood best friends Ashley and Alli. Our plan at the moment is to watch the Dancing With the Stars finale. This Sunday, my mom also found cheap tickets to the Broadway show Some Like It Hot which is touring and will be in Columbus for a few days and although i have yet to look up what its about I am excited because I love musical theater. Finally since it's obviously Thanksgiving break, I'm going to spend quality time with family and friends this holiday


If you read last week's blog you may remember that after Thanksgiving Dinner Ruby and I usually dip out to watch a movie, unfortunately that will not be happening this year. This Thanksgiving is actually being held at my house for the first time ever. This year we are also being joined by some family friends which also isn't typical because like I also mentioned last week Ruby and I are the only younger people but this year our friend Taylor will be with us so that is a fun change for us. 


That is all for now. I hope you all eat amazing food and have a wonderful time with your families and friends.

Week 1: Welcome Back To School (Senior Year Edition)

Image
Welcome back to All In With Althea! I honestly missed being able to update this blog; it's like a visual diary, and I love being able to share my life in this way!  My first week back has been hectic to say the least!  I started out by moving in last Tuesday for Klondike's Crew to help move in the new freshmen here at ONU. After that, I immediately got sick with a fever that night (thanks, chronic illness), but that's nothing I couldn't handle, even though it did still suck. I then just rested up and was back to “better” by Friday. Then, throughout the rest of the week, I was able to adjust back to campus life and get on a consistent schedule. I then had a very busy Sunday. I first went to the Welcome Fest, where all the campus organizations and clubs attend to recruit new members, and I helped out at the Art Club for my friend, since we are working on reviving the club. Later Sunday night, we as a Greek community at Ohio Northern came together to hold Greekpalooza, wh...

Chapter #7: Silly Snapchat

Image
Chapter #7:      Snapchat is widely known especially among Generation Z. It is rare if someone around my age doesn't use Snapchat. Snapchat is a photo messaging app where you can send photos back and forth with friends and family or post them to your story for your followers to see what you may be up to. In the graph shown in the book, it shows that from the 1st quarter of 2024 to the 1st quarter of 2022 the number of active daily users has had a steady increase each quarter of the year.     Within the statistics of Snapchat, the most used age is what I expected which ranges from 18 to 24. But the users of men and women are almost the same which is rare for almost the same amount which is 51% of females to 49% of males. When looking at the other stats I was surprised to see the amount of users in each country and how India surpasses the United States. I also found that on Advererage the typical Snapchat user only spends about 21 minutes a day on Snapchat an aver...

Chapter #6: Twitter... I mean X

Image
Chapter #6:     X is more commonly known as its former name Twitter whereas X was created by Elon Musk after he bought Twitter back in July of 2023. I know that it is popular but I haven't even opened the app since I was told to download it in my high school journalism class.      X allows users to share a post with less than 280 characters and images if they choose to do so. Today X has over 368 million monthly users that send over 6,000 posts every second. X's original purpose was for friends to communicate. Now it is a worldwide social networking site. People go to X now for daily news, sports, and politics.       Marketing with X is key. It allows the brand or company to have a voice and gives them the opportunity to engage with customers and followers more easily compared to other platforms.       I nfluencers are a major part of marketing in 2024. Even on X, they use influencers for marketing and advertising.   ...
