Nicholas Sparks,
Another amazing author, he has wrote many books that I tend to read a lot. He is the number one author that I read the most. You should read as many books of his that you can. What I love to do is go sit at Hastings and just read all the Nicholas Sparks book I can. Most of his books have been number one hit movies. If I ever met Nicholas Sparks I would ask him, If you could work with any author who would it be?, What’s your inspiration or who is? or What is your favorite book that you have wrote? and of course there are many more questions. So I do think everyone should read a Nicholas Sparks book.

F. Scott Fitzgerald!
An author of his great words. One of his famous books is To Kill a Mockingbird, My favorite book of all time. A great book I must say but in order to have your own opinion on it you must read it! If there were any questions that I would like to ask him it would have to be ,When naming your characters, do you give any thought to the actual meaning?, Who is your favorite author and is your writing style similar to theirs? These are just a couple of questions I have for him. An amazing author that I love and will brag on him till the day I die!

Jory,
Ok … So Electronic Communication is over…
Wow never thought that it would go by this fast! So Jory had a blast with you and loved the way you teach! Not going to lie the first class you taught I was so scared, I had my mind set that I would probably drop this class because I did not know half the things you were talking about but I’m sure glad I didn’t! I learned more then what I needed to know. I added this class because I thought I was good with computers and thought it couldn’t be too hard but come to find out I wasn’t so great with computers! I loved everything we did including most of the projects.
The first project was the picture slideshow and it was probably my favorite project so I have nothing to critique on this one. The second project was the podcast not going to lie this was my least favorite. The only bad thing I have to say about this is that you should expand the topic on what to talk about and not just make it about the majors because that was difficult on my group. The third project was the video and I liked it but I also think you should expand the topic and not just make it about your major but other then these things the class was great and enjoyed every minute of it!
What I loved is everything we did I learned something new and that’s what I want when I come to class. So I applaud you and thank you very much. Everything we did I enjoyed. Jory! I cannot say nothing but nice things and I would defiantly recommend your class to my friends! You were great and thanks for everything!

Abigail Smith Photography Website!
When designing a website one of the most important thing is to consider is the audience that you are trying to appeal. Some websites you might want to change every few months. After looking through several websites and wondering which one to choose. I decided to pick a photographer’s website named Abigail Smith. Why? Because in my opinion a photographer’s or designer’s website are the most appealing. They consider what a reader will want to see rather then what they want to see. When most people look at websites they first look at the content. In web design I would say content is the most important and in Abigail’s website her content is very appealing and allows me to want to look more at her website.
Abigail Smith’s website is modern, fresh, fun, and very appealing to the eyes. The video at the beginning of the website made me smile this is something that I would like on my portfolio. In the video Abigail Smith looks like a fun and exciting photographer. Also, she looks like she loves what she does and she feels comfortable behind the camera. While she is smiling and telling others what to do when doing her job the music in the background makes it that much better. In my eyes this website is perfect and would want mine to look just as this one does.
Religion and Spiritual <3

Religion and Spiritual!
So today is Sunday and I go to church every time I come home and I enjoy it. Today though was a different day my preacher never did this before and the preacher brought up religion and spiritual. While he asked everyone in the audience to think about is religion also spiritual. He did not give us his opinion thats all he said and then went on preaching but he did say he would tell us his opinion next week. So thats when I thought about writing my blog over is religion also spiritual? Then I started to think about how most college students change their religion as they grow older and become more of an independent person. This subject may bring people apart or together and I thought about giving my opinion in this blog.
What does religion mean to you? Is it the same as spirituality or not? In my eyes it is not. Spirituality has a different kind of meaning than religion. Spirituality is something you get from religion. Religion is something we believe in and usually won’t ever change but spirituality is something most people feel and can change in matter of seconds. Even though spirituality is based on our religion it can change faster then our religion identity. In both of these aspects of life we can not have religion without spirituality or we can not have spirituality without religion. Not very many adults have a change of religion and spiritual identity as much as college students. “Studies show that college students that seventy percent have a goal to develop a meaningful philosophy of life and 69 percent seek out opportunities for spiritual growth.”(Andereatta Britt, Navigating the Research University 2009) but sometimes college students religions or spiritual identity may change they do need something that every college student needs to succeed in college which we call, ”Developing cultural competence” this is something every college students needs to have. This gives students a source of strength and confidence when they recieve this quality. This quality may shape a students experience at a university and will let you interact with your community. This is a big goal in my life to try and succeed at. This quality like I said before will give me the source of strength and confidence I do need. This may help me succeed faster and learn more about the community around me and even the culture. As we all get in older in life we start our jobs and try to succeed in life and in my eyes we need this quality to succeed. In the world today you do not need religion to succeed or spirituality for that matter but if I had religion and spirituality in my life when I succeed I will feel more like person I wanted to become when I was younger. It is just one of my dreams!
