Technology Assignment

The world revolves around the utilization of technology these days. Without it many young people would find themselves without much of the entertainment that we so readily use on a daily basis. Not only is technology a great window for entertainment, but it is also important to keep in mind the potential it has for furthering education. This class is a great example of this. Not only is this an entirely online course, but we are using various types of online forums in order to further our education and success within the class. While I have a lot of experience with blogging from other classes I've taken since being in college, one tool that caught my attention is bookmarking. I love bookmarking. I'm not sure if my habit of bookmarking almost everything I've come across on the internet is healthy or is beginning to turn into a full blown addiction. Nevertheless, bookmarking is the perfect way to ensure that you can easily find what you were once looking at online. Before discovering it, I had such a hard time rediscovering pages and websites that I once traveled to in the past that may not pop up on Google on the first search attempt. Bookmarking is a perfect resolution for this problem!

Introduction to an Actress...

I thought it was about time that I got around to properly introducing myself. My name is Lauryn but most of my friends and family only refer to me as Laur. I am 21 years old and a junior in college (woohoo!). My hobbies include working out, playing with my puppy, singing, playing the piano and guitar, and playing soccer. For me, where I am is a huge testament to how far I’ve come. Life hasn’t always been so easy and I have not always known whether I would make it this far. I was a very healthy child. An extremely athletic competitive soccer player who was on the brink of breaking into the Olympic scene. No really…It was 2012 and I had just received my second invite to join the Junior Olympics Women’s Soccer League where I would have to move across the globe to Australia with my trainers and coach and begin a life away from everything I’d ever known. The first time I had politely declined, much to the chagrin of my parents and coaches. But now, I was 14 years old and already had ...

Storybook Favorites

So many of the storybooks I reviewed were excellent and it was quite difficult for me to narrow it down to only three. But nevertheless, here they are: Number 1: This is a completely new topic for me but one that intrigues me instantly upon reading the introduction. The storybook talks deeply about the Sunlight's Reflection and how it is viewed as a window or mirror for both gods and humans. The introduction effortlessly connects the gods to nature. It paints a clear image of the relation and concrete friendships that marry gods to oceans, planted, and animals. It speaks of many gods and goddesses including the God of Air and Goddess of Clouds. The introduction is sure to grab readers attention as it employs an anecdotal approach rather than a more simplistic factual debut. For me, this is what worked to grab me initially. In terms of the layout of the storybook itself it is clear, concise, and easy to navigate. I highly recommend checking this one out. Number 2: I w...
