Life

    As I sit back today and reflect, I keep thinking about how blessed I am and how great my life is. My life is great because of the people I have in my circle and the people that support me. When I think about some of these things, it really does make me complain a little less and be cheerful a little more. It is easy to smile and be happy when life is great, but how do we respond when life isn't always great and exciting? That truly determines how strong we are as people. 

    First, my family is great and they are my driving force in everything I do on a daily basis. When I look up in the stands at basketball games and see all of them, it reminds me of why I work hard and also how blessed I am. My family is massive, which makes it even better when I see so many of them. Secondly, my friends are incredible. I have met some of my best friends through college and have also maintained childhood friendships from back home. When things aren't always positive, I know I can come home to my roommates and laugh and smile and be just fine. Lastly, are my basketball teammates and coaches who I see every day. I have great teammates and coaches who remind me of how great life is. Having people on my side and in my corner gives me the comfort I need sometimes when life isn't all sunshine and rainbows. 

    If you have great people in your life, please let them know that you appreciate them. I have tried to improve on thanking the people in my life and telling them how much I cherish our friendship. You never know what can happen in life, and that's what drives me every day.

Marketing Campaigns

    We can use many things in the social media world to our advantage, including social media marketing campaigns. In short, it is a campaign used to target an audience and advance your business and company in the long-run. It can also come from actions that can lead to influencers or audience to certain types of things. These campaigns can be most affective just like a lot of other things and that is by setting your goals and audience before you start your campaign.      You need to know where you want your campaign located at and what you want it to do. For example, social media is the main spot but you can also have it in other spots that can reach awareness also. Having your target audience is important, but you also want to know what the people in your target audience are interested with. For example, the social media apps that they are most active on, older people are more active on Facebook versus Snapchat, so it is important to know that. Also, setting a...

Music Cures All

     At a young age I fell in love with music and have never looked back. I remember being a young kid and always asking for an iPod so I could download a bunch of music. Always having my headphones in before my travel basketball and football games and just enjoying it. Back then, I just wanted to look cool and didn't truly understand music like I do now. Music helps me with everything including basketball, school, anxiety and just relaxing, it is great.      I listen to music anytime I can, especially when relaxing or working out. I like to experiment so I truly like a lot of different genres and songs, but if I had to pick one forever it will always be rap. Over the last year I started listening to an artist called Rod Wave and haven't stopped listening to him since. The main reason I always listen to him is because I feel like we relate on a lot of stuff and he puts his true feelings into his songs so it is real and relaxing. I have always liked country ...

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...
