Thanksgiving Break

     Thanksgiving break couldn't come at a better time. I am in need of a mind break, I am mentally drained. I have previously talked about how home is such a great decompressing place for me. I can't wait to do all of my favorite holiday traditions. I love the holidays and they are a huge part of my family. We go to a huge art fair and do our Christmas shopping. I look forward to this day every year, I am a huge fan of tradition its something I hope to carry on forever. This year is going to be a little different, I have a sister who lives in Nashville and she will not be home for Thanksgiving this year. She will be going to Maryland to visit her boyfriend. As someone who loves tradition this has been a struggle for me. I hate change and my sister not being home for the holidays is a big change. Christmas is the "important" holiday in my family though. It is the holiday we must be home for, the holiday party is mandatory, we through a huge dress up party for a large amount of people. This is something everyone looks forward to every year. I cant wait for this to have everyone together from all over the country once again. I hope you hace a great Thanksgiving and a blessed holiday season!

    I am excited for Thanksgiving too. I love watching the parade. My dad does most of the cooking especially making pumpkin pie from scratch. I personally prefer a more laid-back environment for the holidays. I have a twin brother so I know the feeling of being the only kid staying at home being weird. I hope you have fun nonetheless!

    I also agree that break has come at the perfect time this year. Last year around this time I do not remember feeling as stressed as I do this year. Although I have a lot of assignments upcoming after the break, I will feel relieved to have at least four to five days to relax. We only have two weeks until finals week once the break is over. We will soon be out of class for a month and I am very excited for that.

    I think thanksgiving break is positioned perfectly at about 80% of the way through the semester. Be sure to take the time back home to recharge!

    This weekend the volleyball team and the Ada community celebrated 50 years of Title IX. Title IX is something we as college students hear about all the time but never really understood what it meant. That was until this weekend, generations upon generations of Ohio Northern Volleyball Alum came to our tournament an home over the weekend and stayed for a get together and story telling at the inn afterwards.       Once we arrived at the inn the alumni started pouring in. It was great to talk to them and hear all about their time at ONU and about how much has changed. Then the speeches started and so did the water works. It began with Coach Kuhn talking about the history and then inviting up our new university President. Our President talked about how Title IX has effected her life, she is the first women president her at Ohio Northern which is a monumental mark in our history. Next to give a speech was a fellow player by the name Lea McFadden. She talked about how much ONU volleyball

      I am loving the simulation that we have been assigned, It has been my favorite part of Intro to Social Media thus far. I enjoy being able to put all of the knowledge I have gained in my four years into place and instantaneously being able to see the impact. The post results that you get after running the simulation are so informational and help you form your next posts to be successful. We get to create our own social media posts and post during a specific time on specific platforms. This is what I am planning to go into in the professional world therefore all of this practice is very beneficial. I love the VP assigning us tasks and explaining our goals. My other favorite part is being able to test what I have learned in this class with my communications with the customers. The messaging back and forth and answering their questions in so fun for me because in every job the social aspect is always my favorite part. That is why I picked marketing as a major I am someone who needs t

Sim

 We finished the simulation this week and I have touched on many times how much I enjoyed the sim. I cant express enough how much I learned from it and how thankful I am to be able to have that opportunity. I loved how it got more and more difficult as we moved forward the same way that a job will get more and more difficult the more responsibilities that they put on you. We have learned all the different areas of all different social media platforms all year and throughout learning about them and being able to work with them at the same time was amazing. I have touched on how I enjoy working in social media before and hope that its in my future job but now I am applying to social media jobs because I felt that I could succeed with that career. I loved negotiating, I came to school wanting to be a lawyer therefore arguing with clients for lack of a better word was very fun for me. I loved when I finally got them to agree after many offers and not picking certain people due to their pri
