I think that I am finally starting to get the hang of what is going on in class! :) We had our first presentation a couple of weeks ago. Getting ready for this was kinda stressful. I feel like we weren't totally sure what was expected, but I think overall we all did really well. We finished preparing for our next presentation last week. This time the process was soooo much smoother!
I think we just needed to get one under your belt, because everyone seemed to have a better idea of what was we should do. Now my only concern with the presentations isn't preparing or presenting them it's doing all the evaluations after we have presented. I feel like there are a lot of things required in the evaluation and I'm kinda scared that I might leave something out that will effect my grade. I'm hoping that like with the actual presentation I start to get the hang of it after I've done it a few times. I haven't heard anything back from my teacher yet. I'm anxious to get all that stuff started, so hopefully I will hear something soon!

Thoughts about social networking

Growing up I was never into myspace, but during my high school years I got A facebook. At first it was something fun to do, but now I feel like it has become a Major part of my life. Hardly ever does a day go by that I don't go on my facebook at least once a day, usually it's more. For me facebook is how I keep in touch with friends, it's how I stay in the loop with people that I don't get to see on a regular basis. Also it's been neat because recently my family in Ireland has gotten on facebook, so I am able to communicate more easily with them. I had never really thought of using facebook for anything other more then staying in touch on a personal level. However in class we talked about using it to communicate in a broader sense. After thinking about it I realized that I didn't know about the Kanye West thing with Taylor Swift until I read some of my friends statuses. We talked about in class whether or not FB would one day be absolete, or if because an older generation was beginning to use it if people my age would stop. Personaly my mom has a FB, and I am her friend. In some ways it does keep me from being completly as open as I would if it were just my friends, but I don't think it is somthing that would make me want to leave FB altogether. We talked about how people my begin to use FB for more bussiness purposes. My boss is my friend on FB I would have never friended him, I didn't want to affend him by not accepting. If there is anything I am uncomfortable with him seeing I block it from him. The one thing about FB that I find akward is when people friend you and you don't want to be there friend I know that you don't have to accept, but it can be really akward. :/
