Entry #11 Blogging
When it comes to blogging I highly enjoy giving everyone the chance to read my blogs. It gives me the chance to express my writing with out being limited. It opens a way to express my self from self generating topics. I cant say that I did take the whole experience completely seriously only because towards the end I began to feel as if I was being repetitive. From that I gave up towards the end of the last blogs. Through blogging many benefits come from expressing ones self. No one begins to feel couped up on things and actions they want to say or express from not being able to include what they want to write in their assignments. The only challenges from this would be that if anyone begins to procrastinate, when time comes up for it to be due they have a lot of blogs to work on and just give up. What I learned about blogging from this class what to tell em what your going to tell em, tell em, and tell em what you told em. This opened up my writing to be a lot more detailed and a lot more me. Although it might sound cheesy it makes sense and lately from my writing I know that it has been a lot more precise. Blogging has changed my experience with writing by opening up ways to connect my self with my writing projects. In blogging it allows your self to be your self with out anyone judging. Blogging was a successfully tool for this class. As I mentioned it gives students a way to open up and express themselves.

Entry #8 Sleep
Lately with finals on the way you hear a lot of complaining on how student don't get enough sleep. There skipping out on sleep because they use the excuse of having to much homework. Although everyone knows the truth, electronics and internet are the major problem nowadays. There the reason why students are not getting enough sleep. On average a teenager needs about 8-9 hours of sleep. When they decide to watch that one last video, which then leads to multiply videos. In the end you end up watching 2 hours of sleep and forget what sleep even is.

People are so caught up on other things they forget what the most important thing is SLEEP!!!
Sleep more trust me its not bad for you. If anything its probably the best thing that will ever happen to you.

Entry #6 GT- R
Have you ever hear of the Nissan GT-R? One of the best affordable cars ever. Like how come up with he ideas for thee cars.... Like damn they are so dope. Everything about them is interesting. Did you know they max at 180 mph, I can never see my self going that fast but if I ever had the chance I would not hesitate. The reach 60 mph at 2.4 seconds, imagine the launch on that car. I bet you could make someone shit their pants with one launch! That would be the funniest thing ever! All stock it comes twin turbo, TWIN TURBO giving the car 650 horse power. Now I think I am fast in my Honda which tops out at 130 mph. It has V-Tec but nothing compared to twin turbo. I don't know if i would ever have a car like that in my life time, but if I had a chance I would diffidently take the GT-R.
Just look at this beauty! Its a daily driver, but also used as a super car. WOW, how dope is that? Dope As Fuck that's how dope.
Entry #5 Shorter Classes
As I am reading this article on shortening classes it make me think of my hybrid Eng102 class. ASU is debating on shortening classes and making it much cheaper to attend there. Meaning that it would be less time consuming and less money for college students. When you think of it is it that bad. Like really I take a class that only last 8 weeks long. Actually I take two and it isn't that bad. It makes it so I have more time to do what I need to do through out the week. Sure its a lot more school work because of the time that I have. It teaches me how to manage my time right and still have time set aside for what i need to d. Class is short and much quicker, but in the end it all depends on how much I decided to pay attention. Everyone is still staring together. Also at the end of the class they would have finished a class that so quick, student would be able to move right on to the next class. Making it so that would have to attend only 3 years of college. I love hybrid classes much more work, but look I am already into next semesters classes. It gives me a chance to move on quicker to what I want to do.
Entry #4 Galaxy S 6 Edge +
Galaxy S 6 Edge Plus. I know right a super long name for just one phone. I just got this phone and it has done nothing but good to me. Except I hardly even know anything about it. What I know so far is that it is a larger version of all the regular Galaxy phones. It has a curved edge that is good for side bar use. As the I Phone it has the Finger lock where you can lock on the home button and unlock it with out having to type in a code. It still has the same USB charger that allows super rapid charge. Its a 5.7 inch super Amoled display what ever that means. Most likely the size of the phone. 1440 x 2560 pixels resolution meaning the quality of the camera. With the edge the phone takes a leap at trying something different making the phone unique from the rest. The screen is so much more clean. Making it clear to see it in daylight, much lighter at night to see in the dark. and the options to change the contrast of color on the phone to see at any time of if you just want to change the setting. Although I feel like it needed more features making the phone more interesting to use. That was the exact same reason why I didn't get the I Phone because I didn't want to be limited on what i wanted to do.
Entry #3 Slanted Reporting
As I am reading this article on California valley solar ranch. many slanted reporting was going on. As the NY Times made the story of these solar panels costing great amounts of money, when in reality they costed much less than in the article. I am guessing writers d this to spice it up a little and get more of a bias reach through out social media. making it so that they stretch the truth a little, by giving them a little extra attention. As I read about slanted reporting I see that its more of a lie. It is like when that "best friend" stretches the truth a little about what happened when you were together either making you look bad or making you look good. Usually when stretching the truth like that revolves around being bad.

Entry #2 Birthdays
Tomorrow is my mothers Birthday. She is turning a certain age that I can not speak of on here or she would kill me! Like I understand you're my mom and I love you with all my heart but I never understood birthdays. I guess its just because I am older now and there isn't really gifts. If anything there is nothing but happy birthday post on social media. People you don't even know just teling you happy birthday, and even family and close friends just tell you happy birthday through a post! Like what ever happened to calling them and saying hows your day, and then leading into saying happy birthday. Call me old fashion, but I don't even think birthdays even exist any more. Sooooooo! for tonight I am throwing the biggest family party for her. My mother deserves to know what it like to be surrounded by close family. Shes going to have the best time of her night waking up to actually parting wanting to do that night all over again.
