  I have not gotten to share a lot about my hobbies when I am not in school in a past blog post. Ever since I was a kid I have always enjoyed being outdoors. There is just something about being surrounded by nature that just brings me peace and lets me fully relax. It clears my mind and all of the everyday stress I encounter in everyday life. This is one of the reasons I like to hunt and fish so much. Being able to sit in total relaxation while watching beautiful animals pass by is something that I will always enjoy.

  If I could go back in time and change something that happened in my life, it would be when I got into a car accident with my brother. This was the most traumatic thing I have experienced in my life. The morning it happened, we were both on the way to work, and a car cut him off and we ran off the road. When he tried to get back on the interstate, he over-corrected and the truck turned sideways. We started to roll and on the second roll, I hit my head on the handle and was knocked out. When I woke up there were cars and tractor trailers going by us at 70 miles per hour. This was probably the most stressful part of the whole experience. We were sitting in the left lane on the interstate and the doors were wedged shut, and would not open. It felt like hours before the police, fire fighters, and ambulance got there and finally slowed the traffic down and started to help us. They cut the doors off and got me onto a stretcher and took me away first because my neck was hurting really ...

  Ethics is kind of centered around morals.  A lot of people have different morals and things they think people should believe in and act on.  A main thing in both of those categories would be how you treat people, whether it is physical or emotional.  Ethics is very important to me in life.  Being an ethical person means to do no harm, be truthful, honest and fair.  Other things that could be included in ethics is doing something or saying something to someone for your own benefit, harassment, or taking credit for something you had no part in.  I believe that everyone should be ethical and it is important especially when having a relationship with someone or in the work environment.  If someone isn’t ethical, they could be lying to you or mistreating you which leads to not being able to trust them.  I believe that I am an ethical person.  I think having truthful, honest relationships with people is very important.  I am sure there ...

One of my favorite words to hear and say would be nature. This word reminds me of being outdoors and how calming it is. When I get stressed with the everyday things that life has, I often like to take a walk and soak in everything that the outdoors has to offer. Whether it be the birds chirping, the sun on my skin, or hearing waves crashing, it all is just so calming to me. This helps me destress and puts me in a better head space. The word nature can mean a lot of different things to many different people. Some people may think of nature being a gross place filled with bugs. Some may think about it as a place that they would never want to be. When I think about the word nature, it brings joy, peace, and tranquility into my body. I know if I am having a bad day, one simple thing will help. Not only can taking a walk to see what nature has to offer be calming, it is also good for you. Walking is good for the body physically, but also the brain. Studies have shown that taking a walk can ...

  I think the three most important demographics are age, gender, and income. These are the most important factors when advertising a product to a consumer. All of these factors combined will narrow down the results to the person that is looking to buy the product. Age will determine the group of people the company is trying to sell to. A younger person would not be in the market for the same thing as an older person would be. The same things apply when considering gender. Products will come across differently for a male than for a female because women's designs are different from what a male would want. For income, you wouldn't want to promote an expensive item to someone that couldn't afford it. For example, a car company would not want to show its brand new model to a college student, because they probably couldn't afford it. The first ad that popped up on my instagram was the brand “Drake” for their end of season sale. This is a good advertisement for me because I a...

  If I could create a new holiday for everyone, it would be for everyone to have the day off from work, school, or any other obligations they might have during a normal day of the week on the first day of summer. The first day of summer for 2023 falls on Wednesday, June 21, 2023. The weather will have changed from a chilly or warm spring to a hot summer. This will give people the opportunity to relieve their seasonal depression and have a fresh start into the summer of the new year. This will benefit employers because it will let the employees have a day off and reset their mind and come in the next day well rested and ready to work again. This may even help the employees catch up on stuff they have been running late on, but if they have been on top of their stuff, they will enjoy a nice day off in the summer sun. Employees will come back rejuvenated and ready to tackle the next task set in front of them. Vitamin D is very good for the body. It helps with strengthening your immune ...

  One of the mantras for CNU is “Lead a Life of Significance”. Before you can achieve this, you should know the definition of a mantra. A mantra is described as a sacred message or text. This is a message that you live by or that you hold close to your heart. CNU’s mantra can be achieved if you have someone or something that you look up to. I have a big role model in my life that has taught me right from wrong and has raised me to be the person I am today. The person that I idolize the most in my life would be my dad. My dad and I have been very close since I was born. I grew up outdoors with him teaching me everything I needed to know. He taught me how to play basketball and baseball when I was young. I grew up by his side and we were pretty much inseparable, everywhere he went, I was right there with him. When I was younger, maybe five or six years old, he would take me hunting. I followed him right on his heels because I wanted to be just like him. There wasn't a basketball ga...
