Twitter and Social Media

My week of Twitter wasn't that bad, but I don't think I'll use it later in life. With my luck I will forget I even have one. It was really annoying having to post about my every day things. To tell the truth I don't really like facebook either. I just go on it to talk to my brother and uncle that's about it.I will say this for Twitter, its lets you know what other people are doing in their life in short little sentences, giving you a feeling of being connected to the world.

Everything's worth a try at least once in your life, so why not Twitter.

Diversity Event

So we were required to go to a diversity event and I decided to go to the Traveling Mercies in Afghanistan, Kenya, Haiti, and Mexico. It was an amazing speech given by Aldo Magazzeni, who talked about how he spent ten years of his life volunteering all over the world. He built wells and water systems for these nonprofit organization called Traveling Mercies.
Its just amazing to be able to hear his story, he helped so many people and maybe even saved so by building those wells. He made so many sacrifices to help others and even sold his own car to help raise money. This man is a real Hero.
