Second Blog on a sad note

hello everyone. well following the great labor day weekend, my world was turned upside down last week due to a death of a very important family member. I lost my cousin who was only 29 years old. This cousin of mine was the one who I grew up with as a child and was the one who I looked up too in every possible way. He grew up in LA, were throughout his school career was almost near perfect. He was valedictorian in high school, graduated Stanford in 3 years and explored life by serving our country. After graduating from Stanford, he wanted to fulfill his commitment to his country by joining the US army as a captain of his networking brigade for his aviation team. During his time served as a US solider, he also worked with the Navy. He served the war/stationed in Korea and in Iraq for a total of 6 years overseas. We are not quite sure what had happened to him, but what we do know is that we lost a very genuine person. He was the most humble, intelligent, down to earth person I know and it saddens me very much that he is gone. This is a shock to all my family and as of right now we are at a lost for words. There has been some time that has past now, and instead of feeling sad, I think of him and see what kind of person he was and what he accomplished not only for himself but for others. He is a representation of me and I am very proud of him and am reminded everyday now how life is very delicate. Whenever I think of him now, it brings me peace, and motivation to move on and represent him and for his legacy to go on. Before this class, I was not very big on blogs, but as I wrote this, it has helped me release some of the things that have been on my mind. And for whoever is reading this, it makes me proud to write about him and share what a great person he was and what he has accomplished. till next time...

Very first Blog on blogger

To whoever is reading this. Probably only Prof. Dan. This is officially my very first blog on blogger. I am very new to this world of blogging and social networking. I don't have any other social networking accounts or blogs besides the ning account that I had to work on for our new media class in Prof. Dans class last semester. During this semester I would like to learn a lot about web design. I know pretty much nothing about it since I'm on the management track of the advertising major. I would hope to learn much about it this semester so that i can integrate it into the advert sing world. Enough about that lets talk about fun stuff. What is everyone doing this labor day weekend? As for me, I am going to Vegas. Nothing big, just with gf and family. This trip is to just relax, soak up the desert sun, drink a little bit, gamble and eat!!! Well, till next time...
