Challenging

This semester has turned out to be a lot harder than I thought it was going to be, and basically summer cannot come soon enough! SB was just a tease to me because now that I'm back I have no motivation. Plus I know the next month is going to be a crucial hell. I'm an accounting major who has discovered that the finance part sucks! My finance class is ridiculously hard, and now I've basically got to stomp out a B on my final exam just to pass the class! I have never struggled so hard with a class before, and especially have not done so poorly in a class. This is definitely new, and I really don't like it! Summer has seriously got to hurry up!!

Cheating your way out of a job?

I think that the article was very interesting and informative. I never knew that so many people lied about their experience on a resume. I get that someone just out of college might add an extra activity they didn't actually particate in or something, but actually lying about the type of degree you received is just plain stupid. For one, if you exaggerate your qualifications then you probably are going to be expected to complete what you say you can, and then time comes and you look like an idiot because you have no idea what you are doing! Being under qualified for a job and getting it would be horrible because it might be something that you can't just pretend to be good at. I definitely think it is a dumb idea for people to lie on their resumes about major things like education, past job history, as well as qualifications because we live in the world of the internet where employers can check up on you! Not to mention the unethical side of the issue.

Reflection on Choices

My group decided to choose a theme park to put together our business plan for. I think this is a great idea because it seems like something that meshes well with Second Life. When I think about operating a theme park within Second Life, I think about other computer games like the Sims that have theme parks in some of their games. Most of the people who use Second Life are gamers who probably like other computers games such as the Sims, so I think that a theme park would be very profitable. I like this idea because it is something fun, potentially profitable, and a compliment to Second Life.
