GOOGLE FORM

Alli's survey

4-13-17 Online forms and surveys

I have never used google forms before, nor have I ever heard of it to my knowledge. The only survey generator I've used is twitter. I know, that's such a millennial thing to say but I'm a woman of my time! Sue me! I think its cool and interesting to collect info anonymously to get people's brutally honest opinions on things and know what people are really thinking.

4-4-17 APPS

I use apps all the time. I'm on my phone a lot, and every time I am on my phone, I'm using an app! Some of my favorites, and most frequented are: instagram, twitter, snapchat, google drive, bank of america, spotify and forever 21! All of these help me stay connected and self aware (bank of america does that for me.) My life would be a lot more boring and also difficult without apps being readily available to me. I am very very grateful for apps and smartphones. 10/10 invention, do not know where i would be without them in my life.

4-3-17 My Weekend

This weekend, I went to prom. I went in a group with my best friend genevieve and it was so fun to be able to experience my last high school dance hanging out with her. My friend, Austin Fraser, was my date for the dance and I'm so glad we decided to go together! We always have so much fun laughing and joking around. The best part of the night was definitely the actual dance part, sometimes people think the dance is stupid, but for me prom is different. It's cliche but it's just a whole different feeling!! When i was little I'd watch movies about high school and see my older sister getting ready for dances and such and I would get so excited and now it's so hard to believe that it's over! Crazy stuff. I'm happy to say that my last dance was the best.

3-31-17 NCAA Relfection

This project was honestly super frustrating and challenging most of the time. I don't know anything about basketball or computers so that made for a very difficult time for me with this project. Although, I learned that the little competition aspect of the bracket is fun and I can see how people enjoy it and look forward to doing this year after year. I didn't follow any of the games really, but I work at Paddy O'quigley's so, I guess I kind of unintentionally followed them while I was working during a game. I just heard through the grapevine about who won ad lost and was like hey I think they were on my bracket! It was kind of fun to see that a team you picked to win, won. I learned that neither google docs or excel are very beginner friendly when it comes to making things like this. A lot of the time i just found myself very confused and frustrated and not knowing how to complete the project and use these programs to their full extents, which got irritating. Nonetheless, I completed it and did better on the bracket part than i previously expected.

3-30-17 Favorite TV shows

My two favorite TV shows (both on Netflix) are Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and New Girl. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is about a girl who was trapped underground by an insane preacher for fifteen years then she is found and moves to NYC only having an eighth grade level education. She meets a man named Titus andromedon who is an aspiring and washed up actor all at once. Their landlord, Lillian, is wild and hangs out with them as well. Kimmy is a nanny for this extremely rich family and befriends the stuck up mother. I love the show because it touches on serious issues and talks about problems in the world while still being lighthearted and incredibly funny. The humor is so quick and sometimes subtle, I've watched the series about four times and I still find a new joke or see something I previously over looked. And, it's more like a sitcom, so there's not much focus needed and you can leave and come back anytime and you won't have all these story lines to follow. New Girl is another one of my all time favorites. It's about a girl (Jess) who moves in with three guys after she finds out her boyfriend of five years had been cheating on her. It's a sitcom, so again there's not too much of a story line, but there are some relationships amongst the friend group and what not, The characters are so funny and each one is so different. I have watched that show more times than I can count, I love it and it's so easy to watch.
