A month after my college graduation

I graduated from my great institution South Carolina State University on May 10th 2019 at the Oliver C. Dawson Stadium. I achieved my bachelors degree in Mass Communication/Broadcasting.When you walk onto campus that first day, no one knows who you are or where you've been.College is a place where the starting line starts over and the future is up to you. Every year, almost two million people graduate from college.The big question is to many people what comes next? This question is intimidating: finding a job,a place,learning how to cook,realizing how precious your credit score matters.I gotten my first place the day after college. It was a challenge for me after a month of graduation, I've learn so much about life after college and how your future is up to you. Life after college is the beginning of a new chapter. I am thriving to continue my career and life journey.

My Kizoa Presentation

My Kizoa presentation was based upon the top 15 bulldogs on SC State campus. I learned Kizoa is a very creative tool that anyone can learn effectively. Kizoa is a fun software that you can create a movie, video, and collage-making. Most of all it's FREE!!
  



Here is a picture of my top favorite bulldog. I am excited to be graduating from my HBCU SC State in a week. My final words to say is "The harder you work for something the greater you will feel when you achieve it."

Expand Your Interest in Pinterest





Pinterest is an absolutely great social media web and mobile application that operates a system designed to discover information on the World Wide Web, mainly images and smaller GIFs and videos. Pinterest was first found by Ben Silabermann,Paul Sciarra and Evan Sharp.Many common ways people use Pinterest is for ideas,food recipes, and creating boards.

I have a few boards I created which is dorm room decor,beautiful places to travel in the world, and how art can be in nature and fashion.

I have these boards because they demonstrates ideas and how I can be creative in my daily life with using these great images.

I created a board for dorm decor so I can use the ideas to create my dorm as a beautiful living environment. I also created a board for beautiful places in the world to travel, so one day I'll know that these places are my top places. 

Therefore, i used my last board which is art in nature to characterize how art can be in the most simplest things and not just on a canvas board.  Click here to see my Pinterest

My thoughts about Twitter

My thoughts about Twitter is that twitter is an online news and social networking service on which users post and interact with messages known as "tweets”. I use twitter for purposes as following the latest news in the world and connecting with friends. However, since I am new to twitter I’ll use it to connect as I mentioned and to network.During the Jack Dorsey 60 minutes interview he mentioned how he was extraordinary reserved shy. 

He somehow mentioned how he happen to bump into two men who had the original business concept and invented the name Twitter. Twitter was mainstream that launched in 2006 and went worldwide in pass few days creating. The social media app had millions of people to join with in a year.President Trump uses Twitter because he feels as it is more convenient than any other social media app.He uses it to tweet daily about the worlds latest news and his life. 

I dont have an issue with Trump using this app i feel as so much that everyone has their own favorite social media app. I follow three well known people on my twitter feed which perhaps to be Oprah Winfrey,Steve Harvey and Tyler Perry. I follow these outstanding talented show host people because there are positive and inspirational .
