Social Media Change

I do not think that social media will change much in the future. It is already very popular. I believe that skype will gain popularity in the future. It will not only be used for mesaging, but for facebook and other things. I look to see skype technology improving.

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined

Living the life that you always dreamed of living is easy. Do wha you want with your life. Dont listen to what other poeple hae to say, worry about how you feel. At the end of the day, it is your life, not theirs. Live every day to the fullest and make every second count. That is how you live the life of your dreams. You can imagine your life in a thousand ways and in the end, your immagination will never be reaity. When i immagine m life, i try and make it as realistic as possible. That way, when i reach my goals, i have something to be proud of. If you immagine winning a billion dollrs, chanes are you will not reach your goal. Keep your goals close and realistic and you will chearish the life tat you have been given. Thats how you live the life you have imagined.

procrastination and motivation

Procrastination is my best friend. I love to procrastinate. Its hard to put the effort in to doing something, but its easy to say your going to do somehting. If actions speak louder then words, im a wordsmith. Brushing things off is what I am good at. If I did not have an agenda, I would be lost. Everyone procrastinates because it's easy. Motivation is something that helps procrastnation. If I am motivated to do an assignment, I wont need to brush it off, I will just do it. Personally, it is important to be motivated because when I am motivated and interested in somehting, I tend to do a better job.

favorite movie and song

My favorite movie is Step Brothers. It is my favorite movie because it stars Will Ferrel. He is a dreamboat. He is the funniest actor of all time and he deserves a holiday named after him. Not only is he funny, he is a great role model and regularily donates to charity. This movie is my favorite because it is very funny and entertaining. Every movie that Will Ferrel is in is funny, but this one takes the cake.
 I do not have a favorite song. To me, any song will Drake in it is a classic. I like his songs because they always have a good beat and he is lyrically gifted. His lyrics make sense, and they flow.

Basketball

Before attending Durham College, I spent the past four years at G.L.Roberts. I played basketball for three years, and went to OFSAA for all three seasons. OFSAA is a tournament that the best teams in the province are envited to. It is held in a different place every year. The last three years it has been held in Timmins, Windsor, and at my school in Oshawa. I have also been to New Brunswick twice. For me, basketball was the best part of high school because it gave me something to look forward to. I hated waking up and going to school but i loved waking up and going to practises. Being on a team with the same individuals for 3 years felt like playing with family. We were the best double A team in oshawa and one of the best in durham. My last year, we finished our leauge at the top. 16 - 0!  Basketball was great but sports for me is my life. I was athelete of the year for two years in a row and recently played on a top 10 provincial soccer team. I won lossa for tennis and badminton for 3 years in a row, and was the most improved player on my high school rugby team. Gotta enjoy the little things.

Social Media

I believe that social media has increased the quality of news because people can get the news anywhere, anytime. In the past, people had to be in their home, watching a television to see the news. In this modern era, we can get the news through computers and cell phones. Everyone has a cell phone. We can view the news from anywhere in the world with the click of a button. The quality of news has also increased because now we hear about everything. We do not only hear about big events in the media, we hear about every piece of news that is published. Social media has increased the quality of news, and will continue to do so for generations to come.

I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul

This means that only you can control your fate. Your life is in your own hands. No matter happens, you are responsible for your life. Another quote that reffers to this one is, "life is what you make it". I control what my life is like and you control yours. When i grow up, I should not be able to blame someone else for somehting that did or did not happen in my life. My fate is mine to make, and mine to discover.
                                                                                                                               Cody

Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought togeather

This quote means that nothing great was done the first time. It would be rare for someone to think of a theory or an idea for the first time with no defects. Perfection comes from practise, and repitition. I play basketball. When i took my first jumpshot, it did not go in. I spent several hours and many weeks perfecting my jumpshot so that when gameitme came, I had my jumpshot. Greatness is not created, it is developed through a series of things that leads you to your end product. Remember, Rome wasnt built in a day, it took two.

Life Organizes around the standards you set for yourself

This quote means that your life is shaped by the goals you set for yourself and how you approach your life. If you set your standards in life high, you will have everyhting that you want. As long as you are determined to set goals and be the best that you can be, you will be happy. Your lifestyle determines your life.
