 Yummy Food !!! Food is great, I think we can all agree on that. Whilst the majority of people have their go to dishes others like to experiment and try out new things every chance they get. Personally, I am somewhat of a picky eater and therefore I definitely have my preferred meals. Here at ONU, the food is actually pretty good and I enjoy going into Mac or WOW Café. At Mac, I always line up for the stir fry, like many others and at WOW I typically get the Tender meal swipe with Kansas City sauce for additional flavor. Let me know what you like in the comments so I can give them a try!!!     Food does not only taste good but also fuels our bodies. Therefore it is essential to intake the right ingredients on a daily as this not only ensures you have enough energy but also fortifies your body against various of different diseases and hardships. What I found interesting about moving to the United States is that food is indeed different. Don't get me wrong though it surely is delicio

 Twitter - Continued - "X" As we all know now, Twitter is the old formerly known app that allows people to tweet daily and give live updates on events and other occasions. Today the app is known as "X" which has a simple but nice design. More modern than the previous one. But personally, I actually enjoyed the name Twitter more and I thought the bird was very fitting even to the point of calling your posts tweets. I thought it added character and more of a fun atmosphere. Now it comes across as rather dry but professional. So both brands do have positives and negatives so let us take a look at what one should know.     Starting with your cover photo. This is what viewers will first see when coming to your profile and because it is a rather large picture make sure it sends your message and draws good attention. This photo can really give you a professional look and if you would like to go even further pay for X Blue. This is a subscription that adds a verified blue c

 Snapchat Marketing We are finally talking about Snapchat and how to use it in a way to increase brand awareness and reach whatever your goal might be. It is important to remember that the basics of Social Media Marketing still remain the same. You need to understand your target audience and how to "WOW" your audience. When they see this snap what makes them want to interact with it. Snapchat has many filters and other tools that one can use to maximize potential interaction. The one thing I believe might throw things off a little bit is when using these tools what can often happen is that the content might be a little childish at times. Remember this can be a huge advantage if your prospective market is such.      Whilst you can pay for ads and other benefits on Snapchat a lot of advertising on this platform happens through word of mouth. So it is essentially free. If one wants to maximize gain he could pay influencers to post their products to their stories as well. This is

Freestyling and Rapping  At this point, I am really writing about anything. Today my blog will talk about a form of art. Freestyling and Rapping. Many of my friends will show me songs that they and others have made, sometimes copying current rappers' styles and sometimes coming up with their own. Often times the beats on these songs are even better than some beats on current top songs of the world. No, honestly you should hear them. Anyway, I always admired people who could sing or rap lines that rhymed and matched up in sync with the beat. Being able to feel the music and produce lyrics that make sense is crazy to me, especially the ones that tell an entire story. This brings me to the experience that led me to write about this.     So, the other day my friends once again showed me their songs feeling themselves as it was played. Then they look at me and start trying to convince me to get on a song with them. So now I am in my room trying to come up with lyrics that might tell a s

Fall break did indeed creep up on me. It seems just yesterday that I moved into my room and said goodbye to my parents. Nothing the less I was very happy when Fall break finally did come around the corner. School is no joke as you guys probably know. A lot going on at the moment, exams coming up, projects and papers due and on top of that athletics is starting to pick up. We must remember to keep track of what needs to be done as with so much going on at once it is very easy to forget the little things. I wonder who might have forgotten to blog as we were all busy during this weekend.     Fall break was great! I got to go home with one of my friends and we were busy to say the least. Got in Friday night and immediately went to play pickleball. After getting done around 1:00 AM we had some Dennis and called it a night. The very next morning we got on the courts again. It was lots of fun if you couldn't tell. After that we went to get a haircut and primed the walls of the house his f

 Marketing with Pinterest Marketing as we know is a subject which is very complex, or at least can be and can be seen everywhere. I almost guarantee you that on your way to class, you came across some form of marketing.  Marketing can be found physically and digitally too. Social Media has taken the world by storm and marketing specialists have seen this as an opportunity to grow one's social media brand. One platform social media marketers tend to use is Pinterest.     Pinterest is often a board of collection of photographs. Individuals can go on here when seeking inspiration or looking for more advanced content. Pinterest when used correctly can sway people to pick up a new trend or product. An important feature to keep in mind on this platform is that one can pin pictures. Besides the hassle of posting a lot of Pinterest content which is usual for  Pinterest accounts, by pinning certain ones you are able to draw the viewers' attention to those as they would typically be foun

 At this point ... As we all might be experiencing, blogging is getting. Not difficult but repetitive. It is not the easiest job to find new stuff to write about all the time. Especially when said content should be grasping the audience, not boring them. Blogging is an art taken by many people in unique and intriguing ways. You have bloggers that use it as a way to express themselves, others use it to promote brand awareness and some are just readers not bloggers themselves. Blogging has millions of people fascinated and using different platforms to spread their word.     I personally know somebody who blogs about their own life or what their worries are every week or so. She uses the platform as a way to cope with life and putting everything down and sending it off into the web gives her a feeling of relief. Or at least she would tell me when my curiosity led me to ask her why she blogged. Funny enough now I am blogging too. Personal blogs are also gaining popularity and with this, I
