Blogging...I dont like it

I'm not a "blogger", I admit it, never had any interest in it and still do not. It is just not me. I remember when someone first asked me if I blogged, or ever written on any blogs, and I asked them what is that and what are you talking about. I have never herd of it at the time and it didn't interest me. But now after having a class where all we do is blog and read other blogs, its very interesting to see what people have to say about different topics and also the same topics. Its like AIM, but you post what you want to say and it stays there, its blogging. If you have something to say about anything, just blog it and someone will read it and comment on it. Blogging is your online journal where everyone can read and comment. What makes a blog so popular is that you can comment back on the writer, you can find someone who feels the same way you do about something, or you can fight with some one about a topic making it the ultimate "high school debate team" dream!!..Now a days, every website has a blog or every TV show has a blog where they can read your posts.I just feel blogging is over rated, but if your into blogging, more power to you because its not my favorite thing to do. I have nothing against people who blog, or people who love to blog and make it almost a religion, its just that I'm not good at it and I don't prefer to do it. So if you love to blog keep blogging!!!!!, but you wont find me doing it.

second life

I have never herd of second life before, only when we started talking about it in class, and I still did not understand what it was about. So I signed up and experienced it for the first time. So as I started the program I upload on the beginning island and right across from me is a naked women, and thinking to my self, what kind of "second life" is this? I walked around a bit and explored the first island. Then I got teleported to the second island, called the application island I think, and got some free stuff and learned some different things I can do with this program. Its very interesting, how you can do many different things like drive cars, fly, build, buy things and the main purpose chat to other people and communicate. The option I liked most was the flying part, its allot better then walking and you also feel like a super hero at the same time, I mean who wants to walk any way. Allot of people tried to talk to me, asking me questions, but I didn't really talk back, I only talked to a few people. When in the main land I tired to drive a car and a motorcycle, but it wouldn't let me because it wasn't mine. I wish it would let me then you could be chased by cops of something. So overall my experience was a positive one. I think it is a very interesting program and can see why people use it. You can create your own world, and live a whole new life, your second life.

The big 5 letter word....TRUST

Trust, is a very serious part of life, especially in a relationship, with your spouse and or your friends, and also the workplace.



Everyone deals with trust each and everyday. Weather its to trust your car to last you to get to work and arrive safely or to trust the person next to you on the highway that he doesn't change lanes without seeing you, and to trust your friends to have your back when your out at night, or whatever it is, everyone deals with trust every single day. But there are many different types and levels of trust I feel. When your in a corporate world you have to trust you teammates just like Verzuh talks about, trusting your group team members. Personal trust and Professional trust.



Allot of people trust me, and that is because I can be trusted, I'm not saying that to be cool or to sound "cocky", but its true, I am just a generally nice, trust able guy. I am always there for the people I trust and for the people who trust me. It takes a while to get my trust tho, but once you have my trust, its all happy trails. But if you ever take advantage of my trust and lose my trust, they you probably wont be one of my friends anymore, depending on the matter. I am always around "trust" and so is everyone else. Being on an athletic team at a division I University, I have to trust my coaches that they are making the right decisions every day to make our team better and to get a championship. I have to trust my teammates during the game that they will follow the plays and trust them to do things correctly. And if I get hurt, I have to trust the Doctor that they have made the right prognosis, and trust my athletic trainers that they will take care of me and get me healthy as soon as possible. I have to trust my roommates that they respect my things and that they don't go through them when I am not there, just like they have to trust me. But to get someones trust you usually have to show them that your a true person, a friend, someone who makes the right decisions. But if your trust with some one is every broken, its just not worth trying anymore, once you step into that unwanted zone, you will never be trusted again, and are lucky if you are still friends. And in the corporate and business world, you have to trust on your employees, that they are doing what they are suppose to do and in the time frame they are given. And once you have someones trust, try not to lose it because trust is a very valuable thing in this world today.
