The art of a logo

-

 

Having now been writing this blog for a couple months, I would say I have (hopefully successfully) intertwined an image of being both an athlete and a normal college student. The style of my blog is a kind of light hearted pink and flowy theme that integrates my discussions on matters of sports in a calm manner. This logo incorporates those same thematic ideas. It shows the same calm pink tone and includes the title of my blog, while also providing an image of a loose body which I view as my athletic side being represented through my concentration on my body.

Learn about the Country of India!

-
How much do you understand what goes on in the world around you? I recently completed a course that enlightened me to the country of India through focusing on the films and videos surrounding the infamous ‘Bollywood.’ Now I’ll be honest, I often find myself lacking the effort to follow important events occurring both in my own country as well as others. However, this class piqued my interest thanks to my love of movies and constant bingeing of television shows! With the hope that this blog reaches some of the younger classmen at Mount St. Mary’s University, I wanted to share some of my favorite moments of the course to instill in them a desire to take it for themselves! From the basic history of India that we learned through reading Mira Kamdar’s, India in the 21 st Century: What Everyone Needs to Know , to the various movies we watched, there is an extensive array of topics covered in this class. In Kamdar’s book, we read of India’s political system and leaders, which I found to be s

 The Things you need to know! College itself is always a whole new adventure for students, but if you throw in being a D1 athlete, it gets all the more busy! If you are in high school and considering a future in sports, I highly suggest it, but here are some tips on how to handle it... 1. Learn how to time manage! Life moves fast, and when you are constantly juggling a sport, school, and friends, it is common for it to move too fast. Time management is a crucial skill to all, but especially for athletes. Determining a time for homework that works around practice times and games is a much greater thing than one might think! Not to mention that college is known for being some of the greatest years of your life, this is still possible for committed athletes but it makes it much more difficult to fit in going out with friends on crazy adventures! Just manage your time wisely and it is possible! 2. Take the pressure off yourself when you feel yourself getting stressed. You are only human

Media in our World

New Media this Week Throughout this week I have been keeping track of my social media usage, and boy has it been enlightening! A day in the life of Becca involves a lot of constant media and a consistent flow of me picking up my phone, even if it is simply for a quick 15 second check in.  Our world depends heavily on the use of social media, mainly for easy communication, and I am not an exception. Due to guest speakers in my social media course I have been shown just how substantial social media's role in the world can be. Specifically for activist groups and those hoping to make a change, social media provides an outlet to bring similar minded people together and form the beginnings of real change. However, though I consistently use social media, it is almost never for meaningful uses like this. Is that a bad thing? Not necessarily, but my usage could surely be more beneficial than it currently is.  For me, daily social media consists of constantly checking snapchat and respondin
