In the readings the topic has dealt highly with the content. It talked about blogs, podcasts and twitter. In New Rules of Marketing by David Meerman Scott he also discussed how blogs, podcasts and news releases all are related. They are all different ways to inform and entertain future and current consumers.
Video content was another popular topic. With so many videos being posted every day more and more people are subscribing to certain companies and websites. They follow more blogs and subscribe to more podcasts. This is a very important way to connect to your audience and potentially attract more customers.

Summer!
When it's all over though and school starts back up the stresses come back, the sun tans fade, but the memories and priceless pictures remain.
Can I just say I am very excited for summer!

Watch Out Salt Lake City!
After arriving at the Gateway in Salt Lake we started with lunch so we could get our energy. We soon after spent a lot of money on a lot of stuff. We had so many bags to carry by the end of the day our arms felt like they were about to fall off. We did, however, choose the perfect day to shop. We didn't go into one store that didn't have some sort of a sale going on. We spend a lot of our time in Buckle. It is our very favorite store, expensive, but still our favorite. We also ended up buying a lot of chocolate at the local chocolate factory.
Dinner at Benihana was next. It was delicious, but a little overrated. Personally I like our local Kobe a lot better. We were joined by a family who, for whatever reason, thought we were just hilarious. We really weren't that funny.
Next came the hotel room. We were so hyper after dinner that we were jumping on the beds attempting to take pictures of us in the air. We also took some in what we like to call the "wind tunnel" (below).
Area 51
At first it was funny until they started seriously dancing on us. We had no idea if they were straight or gay, not that it mattered, but if they weren't dancing on a girl of some sort they were dancing on each other. This was extremely weird and made the whole situation that much more uncomfortable.
All of a sudden I was sandwiched between two guys. One was in the cage with me and the other was hanging on outside. I was being humped from every angle and was just standing there trying to wiggle my way out. My friends on the other hand were laughing their heads off at me. Rude, I know.
Finally, I said that I really didn't like being humped and they stopped. But, instead of leaving they said who's next and for payback I jokingly pointed to my friend Liz. They then sandwiched her. I found this hilarious.
Hilary eventually came to the rescue and they guys left. Seriously though, how do guys not get the hint. Us three girls are in the little cage on purpose. We want to be left alone. Some people! I'm just kidding, other than that mishap it was really fun.
I love dancing and love waking up the next morning being sore, you know you had a good night.

Get Sleazy!
On February 18, 2011 Ke$ha's "Get Sleazy" Tour hit Utah. The Great Saltair was packed with wall to wall people. Some took the get sleazy thing a little too far and were hammered. While others were a little young to be listenting to Ke$ha let alone attend her concert.
Her concert was amazing. If you don't like glitter it was not the place for you. There were people spraying you with glitter as you walked in and canons of glitter that exploded during certain songs.The lights were pretty cool too. Her first outfit even consisted of lighted glasses.
Now Ke$ha is know to be outrageous and crazy, this concert just proved that to be even more true. During the song "Grow a Pair" she actually had a dancing male part (for those of you who don't like dirty words). It was hilarious, but yet another reason why little kids should not have been there.
The concert was a blast and I would definately go to another one of her shows. My friends Alexa and Ashli came with me. We got all dressed up and made the most of every second we were there.

My Best Friend
Not only is Alexa my concert buddy she is my best friend. I have been friends with her since we were in 3rd grade. I can always count on her to be around when I need her, even though she goes to USU and I go to WSU.
We are the biggest retards together and can always laugh at ourselves. We have a saying that we promise to each other, "when we are 80 we will be the ones racing our electric wheelchairs around the nursing home". It reminds us we will always be friends.
Alexa is my truest friend, sure I have 2 other best friends, but they aren't always there for me and I hardly see them and they live all of a few blocks away. Alexa lives in Logan and I talk to her on a daily basis and see her every other weekend. I love her to death.
It feels good to have a best friend, but not everyone is so lucky. I watch my sister switch friends year after year and never have the one friend to rely on. I know it's hard for her, it's hard to watch.
To Urban Dictionary states that friends are people who are aware of how retarded you are and still manage to be seen in public with you. Being friends with Alexa this statement has proven its self true.
Do you have a best friend that you can be your complete and absolute self with? They are the best and are something to be very very thankful for.
