September, 11th- A day of reflection and rememberance

Today is a good day to reflect about not only class but also life. It is September 11th, a day that did, is, and will affect the people of our country. This day ten years ago changed our country for all of time. Today I want to take time to not only reflect on this class but also reflect on my life and be happy for all that I do have. Some people are so worried and caught up on what they don't have when really we should be grateful for what we do have.

On that note, I'm grateful for getting an education and being able to take classes like this that further my knowledge. This week, I was only in class once due to the holiday and athletic games. Although I was only in class once, I still learned a lot on friday. We learned how to how to work more with word, powerpoint and other Microsoft tools. I learned how exactly to use the thesaurus in word. I never knew before how to look up new words that I might want to use.

These Microsoft tools will help me sharpen my techniques so in the future i can effectively create projects. When I had my internship this summer for the United States Golf Association, I had to use excel almost every day. I had to organize sales and such for each day and a number of departments. I probably would've been able to create them faster if i had more knowledge of the tools. I am confident this class will help me in the future for my jobs. I feel so much more confident in my abilities when I have more knowledge of the subject. My goal for this semester is to take in and learn as much as I can. I look forward to doing so next week!
