 Protect Yourself & Celebrate Intel's Password Day!5/6/2013 |
Join Intel for Password Day on May 7th! This campaign was created in order to celebrate online security and safety. It is important to have a strong password so that you protect your online accounts and identity. And as college students whose lives revolve around the internet, I bet a lot of us have a bunch of different accounts for things like Twitter, online banking, school sites, etc. And let's be honest here, how many of us are using the same password for multiple accounts? 1. Use the password, "password" That was a joke! I really hope no one is using that as a password, if so CHANGE IT! Try using phrases instead. Phrases make a better password than random characters. Try making your password the answer to a movie trivia question. In Clueless, when Tai offends Cher, what is her response? "Way Harsh Tai" OR think about your first kiss. Was it "gross and moist" or “passionate and sensual”. Whatever you come up with, make sure your password is strong, unique, and easy to remember. Get creative! 2.

It's Spring! And that means it's time to put away your winter clothes and get out your Spring attire. But then again, who am I kidding, it's time to go shopping!!

 The Cinderella Project3/15/2013 |
What happened to your prom dress? Do you still wear it? I bet NOT! Then why not consider donating your "gently-used prom" dress or formal gowns from 2007- current, and if possible some jewelry for The Cinderella Project! Prom is a rite of passage, and the best part about it is searching for the dress, and acessories to go along with it. But not everyone has the luxury or is fortunate enough to be able to afford this. And The Cinderella Project was created in order to help underpriveilged teens have their dream prom night. So don't be a hoarder and consider donating your dress to somone who will make good use of it. A small step of kindness goes a long way. Dresses of all styles, colors, and sizes are appreciated! The event will take place on March 22nd, 2013 so if possible I would appreciate any donations (By March 17th/18thto allow for the event preparation). Your support would be greatly appreciated and would contribute greatly to the success of the event! If you'd like more information about where and how to donate please contact Morgan Curry from The Cinderella Project at cinderellaproject13@yahoo.com |
 5 Reasons Why I Love MTV's Show "Catfish"3/12/2013 |
If you haven't heard the news, Nev Schulman is coming to campus today (March 13th)! If you don't know who Nev or what Catfish is then go Google it because I'm too excited to write an explanation. 1) Trash T.V. is Awesome! I first got addicted to the show during winter break, when nothing was on TV. And ever since watching my first episode of Catfish I longed for more.Why is it that I am utterly fascinated by people who so dearly want to know if whoever they're chatting with online is real?!? 2) It's So Predictable The title of the show is Catfish, so although I already know that the person who will be revealed at the end is an impostor, I continue to watch the show. The typical scenario usually goes something like this: Boy (girl) meets girl (boy) online they've chatted for several months/years but have never met up. Boy (girl) goes to ask Nev for help. Nev does some research, things seem fishy. They go meet up and BAM, the boy (girl) has been chatting with someone who has been deceiving them about their gender or appearance. And after all the drama, you've got your happy ending where you find out whether or not both parties are still in contact, who they're dating, and all that jazz. 3) I Learned How to Google Image Search Someone |
