Hi Blog world,

This week I wanted to do two blog posts into one because it’s been a long two weeks. Last week, I had to get my computer to a shop because it was having some issues. Once it was returned to me I got to do what I love to do-put out events via social media. I posted an event about an art show that is coming up in January. I also created an Excel sheet to help keep things organized. I like our new method of having the name of the group on the right side of the Colum with the dates that I post on to the left of it. This is going to help me keep my posts organized and for me to be more productive.

This week I’ve also been working with social media and posting about the art show. I have another social media project that I was assigned and I’m eagar to get started on it.

I’ve also been organizing the groups we post in by using an Excel sheet. One of the hardest things about doing this project is getting organized because the groups keep changing order. So I’ve decided to print out the chart I have now and to go down the list of groups that we follow and check them off; as I find ones that I haven’t added to the list I will write them down manually then add them to the list electronically.

Once all these projects are completed, on Friday, I’m going to be on break for two weeks. I’m excited!

With that I would like to take the time to thank all of my readers and subscribers for following my blog. I look forward to blogging all about my adventures in 2017….Everyone have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Hi Blog World,

The week after Thanksgiving has been a busy week. On Wednesday, I had to use my clerical skills by using Google calendar to schedule a few meetings for my supervisor; I liked learning how to use Google calendar because I’ve never done this before. It took me a few minutes to learn how to see what days were open for my supervisor, however once I got used to the format, I was able to complete the assignment without any problems.  This skill will help me in the future for when I have similar assignments; I’m going to learn more about how to schedule appointments when I have training this month. I’m eager to go through the training for this month, so I can learn more about clerical and writing skills that will help me become a better writer.

I had to do some basic research on some topics that are trending on social media. The one that caught my eye the most was about a young judge. I liked this assignment because it reminded me that you can do anything-no matter what goal you have for your life, you can achieve it if you work hard at it.

Hi Blog world,

This week was a short week for me because I took one personal day off and because of the holiday.  This week I worked on posting a Christian concert that would be going on this week.

I feel that I finally have a good technique for being able to post the videos and flyers quickly and effectively. I went onto our groups, and because I’m always looking and adding more groups to our page, I was able to decide which groups needed to be sent the video. I find it easier for me to write down the names of the groups rather than for me to search for them in the send to group page.

The first day of sending the video out when great, and I was happy with the progress I made. I had a plan of who else I needed to send the video to the next day. However on the second day, there was a technical problem with our Facebook page. I had to use a different account, and I was able to complete the assignment without any problems.

Hi Blog world,

This week was a busy one to say the least. I’ve been working very hard learning how to manage our social media Facebook page more effectively; and I’m happy to say, despite some technical issues I’m getting more and more confident in my ability to post and to a wider audience.

My tasks for this week were to post a Christian concert that is going to be going on next week. This task was very easy for me to do since I now have some organization to it. I went into the groups and selected the groups that would be a great fit for this concert; then I went to the concert video and one by one sent that video to the group that I selected.  I find that keeping a notepad nearby and writing down who I sent it to is a very good way to keep track of the number of people I sent it to.  Once that task was fulfilled, I started to look for more groups to follow; and I’m happy to report I found a lot!

The second task didn’t turn out like I needed it too. I was supposed to send out reminders for the radio show that is going to be airing on Thursday; however Facebook sent me a message saying that there was a problem with posting. I had to email my supervisor, and the error is going to be fixed, and my schedule for the deadline for this task was adjusted.  In the meantime, I went back to posting the concert.

Even though I had a tough time with the second assignment I still had a great and productive week.
