My Love For Writing

Writing can take you to new heights! When I write I feel free to express myself in any way I choose. I can write about virtually anything, it can be something I'm thinking, something I came up with from my imagination, or even something I've experienced. Writing is also an outlet for expressing myself, as long as I don't use actual names it causes no harm to others around me or those I care about. I write for recreation, but it ties closely into reading because the More I read, the more resourceful it becomes when writing. I write about my feelings, my thoughts, my experiences, and even things I wish to experience or pursue. Writing is an every day activity for us, whether it's writing in school, home, in the work place or even when signing documents. When you write , it helps to expand vocabulary and improve penmanship! Others can also see what you write, whether it's poetry, spoken word, blogs, or a short story.

Clark Atlanta UpWard Bound Summer Program

Clark Atlanta University offers a dynamic academic summer program to eligible APS students in their feeder communities.This summer will be my second year participating in the program and I must admit that being in the program helps to keep me engaged in my academics and helps to complete my community service requirements for graduation. Not only do we take instructional learning classes that relates to our up and coming classes during the school year, but we give back to our community, and have the opportunity to stay on a college campus and tour other colleges along the way! This summer, the up and coming senior class on 2013 had a variety of class courses to complete. My two most rewarding classes included 12th grade literature, and public speaking.In our literature class we learn more than how to use correct grammar when writing, but we also learn how to write proper papers for certain classes. We also learn how to incorporate new vocabulary into our writing and learn how to apply it real life situations.We also learn how to write a paper the could earn us a high score on our ACT/SAT test, which I find to be very helpful. In our public speaking class we learn not only how to be comfortable in front of large crowds, but we learn how to use good body language, eye contact, tone of voice and also how to enunciate our words when speaking. We have debates to help us to learn how to defend a point of view with confidence and be able to think quick on our feet. I find these classes to be very helpful and beneficial not only inside of our classroom but in everyday life.

Top 10 Things You Didn't Know About Cyber Terrorism

Phishing e-mails, phone calls and websites are a way for cyber criminals to steal money. They can do this by persuading you to download miscellaneous software of deceiving you into filling our personal information under false pretense. When looking for signs of cyber criminals, you should pay attention to minor details; when in an e-mail look for things such as 1. spelling or grammar errors, 2. the using of popular sites, 3.links in e-mails, and 4. especially treats! Facebook has become a major site the cybercriminals to target. Sometimes we make recognize when we have 5. spam in our inbox, sometimes we may fall into 6. wall posts that "let us view who's been visiting our profile." Other common Facebook scams include; 7.

If gaining your trust, they will most likely ask you to download a software that can help them access your computer in order so that they can fix it.

Looking for new places to volunteer?

When looking to volunteer at a site that best fit your interest visit http://www.volunteermatch.org/search/index.jsp?r=msa&l=39901 to help best find your preference. This site is excellent in helping to find exact locations of volunteer opportunities of all different locations in and outside of your community. They have everything from non-profits to major businesses and corporations to gain volunteer experience from. I give this site an A+ for its direct contact links and exquisite search engine, and recommend this site to anyone looking for volunteer experience regardless of your age. The site is very easy to use, your only simple task is to type in your location and preference and instantly you are exposed to hundreds of volunteer opportunities in your local community. I learned that this site is also a network for volunteers and volunteer recruiters to network and share their recent volunteer experiences and how much they felt this search engine helped them find just what they where looking for.

This is a national site for national volunteers to are a part of projects ranging from building houses to hosting birthday parties for homeless children. This website gives you various opportunities to give back throughout this organization, if you want to be a part of their organizations, donate to their organization, or donating a vehicle of some sort to help homeless/struggling families. I recommend this site for college students or adults who have a flexible schedule to accommodate to their posted volunteer schedule. If looking to join a group of volunteers on a national level I recommend visiting Volunteers of America.

Interested in the medical field?

If you are interested in working in the health career field, and love working with kids as well; you should consider visiting the The American Pediatric Surgical Association website at http://www.eapsa.org//AM/Template.cfm?Section=Home. This is a website for new surgeons to network and contact other surgeons in their field across the world, and gives you up to date information on newly found research concerning pediatric health care and to promote pediatric surgical research and education. This website is for members only and I give it a rating of  a C because excellent job at keeping all members in constant contact with up to date actives, accomplishments, and newly open job positions in their field; but it does only accommodate to one specific group of people and does not tell you how to join the association as a new member.

If looking for a different vibe, you should consider entering a private practice. Visit

http://www.ppochildrens.org/ to find out what private practices are about, how they operate, and how to become apart of a private practice. This private organization consist of  experienced colleagues, including nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses and care coordinators that are on staff at Childrens' Hospital Boston. I give this website a B for their professional appeal but also because they lack many additional visuals that would help aid in the sites credibility and use of advanced vocabulary that others who are not doctors wouldn't understand.

A digital world of opportunity awaits at Howard University

After visiting Howard University's' site for undergraduate, graduate, and international student admissions (.http://www.howard.edu/) I found their site to be well organized and detailed when it came to searching for specific information based on your interest. I give this site an A+ for it's easy use of direct scholarship application links, direct contact information and up to date information about what's going on around campus. I recommend this site for any student looking for a traditional but prestigious HBCU to attend. The site is easy to navigate and while searching throughout the site I learned about the various diverse academic and professional student organizations they have to offer. There are numerous to choose from and they all accommodate to every student from any background, and also offers clubs and organizations that will fit any students personality, career path, and passion. Although they do offer contact links to the heads of these clubs and organizations, they don't list how to get involved or recruited into the organizations, which is one improvement they should consider making.

 If interested in athletics you should visit http://www.howard-bison.com/landing/index for their list of both women's and men's sports that they offer, ticket admissions, season calenders, and up to date accomplishments of their sports teams. This site accommodates to the interests of prospective student athletes or even Howard fans looking to buy tickets for the upcoming games. Although the site does not list coaches or administrators contact information, you may experience difficulty when attempting to get into contact with their athletic department. I give this site a B for being detailed concerning seasonal schedules, and ticket information but they lack contact information which is a vital source when interested in getting involved.
