The media in this day and age has a tremendous impact on how society views problems and certain views. Every media teams wants society to believe what they are reporting on and telling us even if it is not the whole truth. The major issue with the media today is that whenever anyone in society sees an article from the media they wholeheartedly believe every single word they try and tell them. Lets take all of the stories about Covid-19 so far. The only thing the media is telling us about it is how many deaths there are from it, they are not telling you that the recovery rate is over 90 percent. The media has such a huge impact on what societies believe and cause mass panic whenever something serious like Covid-19 shows up. The only thing they really care about is their rating and how much they are profiting from the lies they are telling you. They want all of society to believe the one thing they are telling you and not all sides and views of the topic or issue they are discussing. If ...

So I work at Barro's Pizza on 59th and Thunderbird and we're considered an essential workplace since we can deliver food. With all the drama going on about Covid-19 my managers want to take every precaution they can to protect all of the workers, which is a great thing. We always get customers that come in to pickup their order and they wont be wearing a mask or gloves and they will be coughing and sneezing and they will use their hand to wipe their nose and get mad at me for putting gloves on to take their payment. It sometimes scares me how much people can care so little about their own safety and other peoples safety and do stuff like that. After we have a major rush I take a bleach towel and wipe everything down that anyone could have possibly touched, which is pretty much everything. It is also surprising with how many people leave their house during this "pandemic" to get food and possibly expose their kids to possibly getting infected. My parents were scared at...

People often use hashtags to show their pictures to other individuals using the same hashtags. I know that you can make a hashtag for pretty much anything. For instance, if somebody posts a picture on instagram about their car they can include hashtags about the model of car or the kind of parts they have put on their car. I have never used hashtags myself but I feel if I did use them I feel like I would not use any that are excessive or ones that I do not need to use for my post or whatever I am doing. Right now with everything going on in the world I know that COVID-19 is a popular hashtag as well as anything oil related because of Saudi Arabia and Russia. Normally anything related to politics becomes a popular hashtag just because people like to seem informed about all of thew world events happening in the world during that time. Hashtags are used to connect people together about the same kinds of interests and hobbies. I personally do not believe there is no cultural significance f...

When thinking about what I wanted to go into college for it was either between cars and technology. When I first started thinking about going to college I really felt like I would want to be able to work on cars and and do bodywork and stuff like that since there are always accidents so I would always have work to do. After a while I realized  that that really is not what i wanted to go for since I have always been interested by technology and how it works. In my free time I enjoy working on my computer and finding ways how I can make it better and solve problems on it whenever they occur. I also enjoy making code for games and software. I decided to go into software engineering/programming just because of the aspect of problem solving when it comes to code and being able to make my own ideas a thing by being able to know how to do that kind of stuff. I eventually want to become a software engineer for big gaming companies just because one of my major hobbies is gaming and I enjoy ...

He talks to us like he is our friend and not just our Governor. He lets us know that he too is a father and husband and wants to make others not feel alone when it comes to getting and education and bettering your life.
