My Weekend Away From Ada

This past weekend, I was excited to leave town for a few days. My girlfriend lives about an hour and a half from here and that is where I spent my time. The drive is never too exciting, especially during this time of year when there's no corn taking up a lot of space. Up, down, right, left, and curve after curve until, finally, we arrived to our destination.

Being able to spend time with her and her family is always a fun thing to do. Her older sister graduated from here in 2020 and her younger sister plans on attending here after she graduates high school, so she always wants to know how life on campus is. We talked about our classes and how the semester has went by rather quickly.

On Saturday, we went to London to eat with her parents. It is a local restaurant and never once has it failed to hit the spot. After this, we drove to Hilliard which is right outside of Columbus. We went shopping and enjoyed a really nice day. One of my favorite places to go is Meijer. In Texas, we didn't have anything like it and I prefer it even over Target. There is so much great stuff. After this, we got some pizza and went back to her house to spend more time with her family and play with the dogs!

On Sunday, I tried hard to be positive about coming back. This semester is flying by so I know that won't change. It was really nice to be able to spend time there for the weekend. As many of you know, not much goes on around here, especially during the weekends. It could just be me, however.

I hope many of you are as excited as I am for spring break. I really can't believe we have one more full week until then. I will be going home to Texas to spend time with my family and friends. It will also be my birthday that week so hopefully I will spend that day doing something fun!

Ready To Get It Over With

I don't know about you, but spring break felt like a summer tease. I was feeling super optimistic about nearly everything, the vibes were good, I was excited about being halfway through the semester, and then I came back to school. For the most part, I'd say I'm happy, but at this point, I'm just ready to get it over with. Deep in the back of my mind I can just feel that the remainder of the semester isn't going to be easy whatsoever. There are still midterms, and before I know it, it will be time for final exams. As I was walking to my classes today I was trying to motivate myself by thinking that no other day will be as hard as today. Coming back from break can be difficult and getting back into a groove can feel like it's impossible. I hope I'm not alone in saying that this week is a great week to get back into shape.With that being said, I hope everyone had a good spring break and enjoyed doing what makes you happy with people that make you happy. I fee...

Tweet, Tweet, Tweet.

In chapter six we are going to learn the ins and outs of Twitter. This app was first introduced in 2006 by Jack Dorsey. His ultimate idea was coming up with and forming a platform where people could update others in around 140 characters. Today, according to the book, a whopping 465 million people actively use Twitter every month and more than half a billion tweets are shared each day. Marketing with Twitter can be seen as both similar and different to marketing with the other popular platforms. Compared to Facebook, Twitter users are around three times more likely to follow a brand. I wonder why this is? According to the book, Twitter is just a better opportunity for businesses looking to expand upon their platform when it comes to marketing. Twitter is a great place for marketing. Businesses are really involved and it is very easy for the users to come across a certain brand. This is key for a business as the consumer, or the user, can see their brand or product and potentially even ...

Benefits of Blogging

Hello everyone! After reading chapter 12 a question comes to my mind.. If you could choose one form of blogging to have a career around which would it be? Blogging, vlogging, or podcasting? I have watched many vlogs on youtube and over the past couple of years people have started posting vlogs on TikTok and these vlogs are much shorter in time but still a good experience. I like to watch vlogs by people especially when they are travelling somewhere that I one day would like to go. Of course, the only difference between a vlog and a blog is that a vlog is a video so for some it may be more enjoyable to watch rather than to read the more traditional blog, but both are great nonetheless. Podcasts have rapidly come a long way and I appreciate them. Sports and true crime podcasts are my favorite and I prefer listening to them on a long roadtrip or while I am doing homework. If you enjoy listening to podcasts, which is your favorite? To be honest, I hav...
