I actually enjoyed the NewsU Lead Lab course! It presented all the necessary information needed to write an effective lead in an interactive yet straightforward manner. The concept of a virtual science lab is a neat idea, as lecture style learning methods have gotten old over the years. I’m not sure that I learned any new information. However, [...]

PRCA3330-Week1-NewsUCleaningYourCopycourse By akw11 May 26, 2010 http://akw11.wordpress.com/category/topic-of-the-week/ Surpisingly, I also found the Cleaning your Copy Course to be helpful. I initially thought it would be another boring AP Style tutorial, but it actually answered some of the questions I cosistently ask myself when I write. Plus, my pre-test results gave me an assessment of where [...]

What I Learned and Liked
I learned SO much in Intro to Public Relations this semester! I can’t even begin to list the many insights I gained from the class. However, I enjoyed learning what PR is really about. Practitioners strive to maintain mutually beneficial relationships between an organization and their publics. People have huge misconceptions about what PR is and [...]

MoViEs

Favorite band/artist
It is impossible for me to pick one band or artist that is my favorite. My taste in music is pretty broad, and there are so many artists that I love and whose music speaks to me. I like hip-hop, R&B, rap, rock, christian, country, 80′s, 90′s, and even some opera music. There are probably more genres [...]

They seem completely [...]

Hobbies
What are my hobbies? I’m not really sure that I have too many hobbies anymore. There are things I enjoy, like watching movies, listening to music, singing, dancing, going to the spa, shopping, and working out. I guess singing is a hobby. I sing in the choir and perform special music at my church back home. [...]

Future Plans
In my future, I would LOVE to work for Chick-fil-A on the corporate level. Ideally, it would be great for them to hire me right out of school, so I could start living out my dream right away! However, the likelihood of that happening seems slim, considering there are currently no open positions in their [...]
