Week 5 SMSC

Week 5 and I forgot to do my blog whoops. This week flew by. I got to say my first 5 weeks in an apartment is going well. So, I am going to give a life update.

This is the first time I am really living on my own not with a meal plan and having to cook all the time. I enjoyed cooking thankfully so I find it relaxing and honestly a bit of fun. Since I cook for myself I can eat whenever I want and not be restricted by Mac times or Wow times.

My epsorts competitions have been underway for the past 3 weeks. We are only playing one league right now but the 2nd league starts in October. We got to play the number 1 team in the country at the college level this week on Monday. That was a lot of fun getting to play people at the highest level of the game.

As the semester goes on my weeks get busier and busier. My first frisbee tourney is this weekend. We play at least 6 games then a playoff bracket. To get along with the frisbee tourney my hockey league starts this Sunday and will be going on for the rest of the year. We will be playing 2 games of 25 minutes every Sunday. The league we are playing in is 3v3 so it should be a lot of fun and great practice for me to get better. I am the goalie and I have only skated twice with full gear on.

That’s about it. Hopefully next week I remember to post my blog on time. See ya.

  1. That's so cool that you were able to play against such a high ranked team, I can't wait to ask you about it during class on Tuesday! I also agree that these past few weeks have flown by, I can't believe we're almost to midterms... Good luck on the next half of the semester :)

Week 4 SMSC

As week 4 rolls around and is ending there has been something on my mind recently that happened by in May after school ended. When finals were done and I went home and was excited for summer. I needed time away from the classroom and this would be my final summer where I was able to spend most of it with the family. About 3 days after I had been home my granny came to visit my sister who was in town and me at our house. My grandma never liked being called grandma so we called her granny. We ate lunch together and talk for a long time since it had been a while since I had seen her in person with covid and everything. She mentioned how lonely she had become because of it and she had no one to talk to a lot of the time. I told her that I would spend the summer at her house cleaning it out like I did last summer. Eventually she ended up leaving and going home since there was a storm coming, she did not want to be caught in it. 2 days later it is mother’s day. In my family on mother’s d

USA vs. Mexico

There was a huge soccer match this past Friday night. USA played Mexico in Cincinnati for their seventh world cup qualifying match. This means they are halfway through world cup qualifying for the 2022 world cup in Qatar. The match is extremely important since Mexico was top of the group before the match was played and if USA won the match, we would move into first place above Mexico. The match was crazy! Pulisic is USA’s best player but he has recently just come back from injury so he did not start. Usually, USA starts off their matches slowly and does not play to well in the first half. Mexico dominated the first half but thankfully did not get a goal. Then the second half started and this is where the action truly began. The game became more chippy and emotions started to rise up. USA started to look better but Mexico was still getting the better chances. That was until Pulisic was subbed into the game with 25 minutes to go. As soon as he came into the game the mentally of the who

Week 3 Social Media for Strategic Communication Chapters 4-6

This week we read Chapters 4-6 in Social Media for Strategic Communication. Chapter 6 specifically stood out to me. In anything we do we should have a plan of what we want to accomplish. Chapter 6 talks about strategic planning for social media. I found this intriguing because most people who use social media do this to some extent. When someone is making a social media post, they subconsciously think about pre-existing information on whatever they are going to post. While individuals may not explicitly think about what they want from their social media post. People post to get a reaction, or they have an end goal to what they posted. They may not necessarily follow every step laid out in chapter 6, but the mindset is similar. This chapter opened my mind to what companies think about potentially when posting on their social media’s. The end goal of a company is to make money. So, when they are doing social media posts whether it is promoting or just creating conversation online com
