The Season Begins

    On October 6th, my teammates and I will head to Case Western Reserve in Cleveland to kick-off our 2021-2022 basketball season. To say I am excited, anxious and nervous would be an understatement. We have had this day marked on the calendar since the end of our season last year and we are very motivated. 

    I come into the year as junior, along with five other juniors and I feel confident especially with the veteran leadership we will have this year. We will be starting four juniors and one senior and that is very helpful with the amount of experience between all of us. The preseason has been an absolute grind, like always, but hopefully it all pays off when we tip the ball off this Saturday night. A lot of us are sore and beat up right now, but that always happens during the preseason. We will play St. John Fisher out of New York on Saturday, and they are a very good team which will be a great challenge for us. We will play Sunday no matter what, but it all depends if we win or lose Saturday on who we will play that day. 

    It is a big year for all of us and especially for the future of the next people to come. Having a good season can make Ohio Northern University a powerhouse for basketball in the future, and we have the potential to do it. We know exactly what we need to do this season and we are going to accomplish it, but it all starts as a team, just like anything else in life. We have great friendships and a brotherhood inside of our locker room and we just need to put it all together. Go Bears!

Chapter 1-7

    After finishing our midterm in this class, I feel as if it can be a good time to talk about the first seven chapters and the things I have learned about social media. I am actually taking this class because I decided to pick up social media as a minor and I am beyond glad I did it because I  thoroughly enjoy learning about different aspects in social media. This is something that really sparked my interest because I feel like the whole world is ran by social media and cellphones.      Through the first half of this class so far we have learned about all the main social media apps. These include: Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Snapchat. I enjoyed learning about all of them but my favorite was Twitter and that is because it is my favorite app and I also feel as if it is the best app to promote yourself and your business. Twitter is the app I have had the longest so I enjoyed hearing some information about it that I have never heard. For examp...

The Guardiac Kids

    The Guardiac kids, also known as the Cleveland Guardians, were one of the most fun teams to watch in the league this year. A team made up of the lowest payroll, lowest experience and the youngest team in the league made the second round of the playoffs and took the "best" team in baseball to a final game in the American League Division Series, before losing last night. I watched over 50 games this year, and every game had so much life and excitement to it.      This past Sunday night, I attended game 4 against the New York Yankees in Cleveland and it was an experience of a lifetime. I got free tickets and a parking pass and had fantastic seats for a chance to watch history. We arrived early and explored beautiful downtown Cleveland. Cleveland is a place I have always loved and enjoyed being there and exploring. Once in the stadium, it was so great to be back. The smell of baseball was in the air, and it was contagious. With over 38,000 people in attenda...

Twitter Can Be Tremendous

    I am beyond excited we are talking about my favorite app in class now, Twitter. Twitter has been my favorite social media app for over a year now. I also feel as if Twitter is one of the best apps you can use to promote your business or even yourself. I know I used Twitter a ton during high school when I was playing basketball and I was able to reach out to a lot of coaches for college teams.      Originally Twitter only allowed you 140 characters on your tweets, that number is now at 280. Twitter was founded and started in 2006 by Jack Dorsey and has over 353 million people attracted to it. It is used every single day for anything you can think of including sports, politics and businesses. Twitter is used more heavily by males especially in the business world. When using Twitter you should try to incorporate videos and pictures into your tweets to catch more attention from people on your timeline or people that view your profile.    ...
