Survival Mode
To survive in a world of rapid technological change, one must be able to keep up with today’s technological development and understand the new advancements by either using them on a day to day basis or to be aware of their existence and be comfortable using them.

Writing Improvement
To change my writing, I would like to sound more sophisticated by using vocabulary words that are at a more collegiate level because I feel I use the same vocabulary level as I did in high school and the only way I find new words is looking up synonyms on Word.

What's an Author?
An author doesn’t have to be someone who sits down for days and writes a 500 page book and then has it published to be sold but rather an author is someone who creates a piece of work, whether it be writing, painting, etc. and takes ownership for what they’ve done.

Youtube usage
I feel that YouTube will impact the student culture by a sense of bringing out one’s individualism and being able to express oneself with one's own opinion through use of one’s emotions, feelings, thoughts, and maybe even expanding these opinions through visual and audio expression with sound and graphics.

First came the talking, then the writing
Doting my i's, crossing my t's, and making sure I didn't make my letter too big or too small was one of the first accounts I had of learning how to write. My kindergarten teacher would hover over everyone’s shoulder, making sure that everyone’s capital b would reach the top line or that a lower case h would also reach the top line with the hump reaching the middle line. While it seems tedious and repetitive at the time, being able to write the letters correctly was really the foundation of learning how to write. Without being able to write a single letter, writing words would be impossible, let alone trying to write an essay.
