HeAthEr in a NUTshell

1. I am from Walpole, New Hampshire, right next to Keene which some of you may know better as it is larger and holds the infamous Pumpkin Festival!

2.For Christmas we got my dad (well, and the whole family) a new TV along with HD service and On Demand. Only some of the channels are in HD, with some of the same channels available in HD and..non HD, letting you to see that there really is such a big difference in the quality. My parents did need help with the On Demand though, they had noo idea how to use it even though its fairly simple, which just goes to show the gap between both generations' strengths and weaknesses. I'm sure once I'm back at school Ill be receiving calls asking how to use it again!

3.I like that we can access information so quickly and with such ease. It gives many more people the ability to reach information than before. Though I dislike that information is so easily given to us, more is thrown at us than needed, and we are being forced to multitask with each thing we do, leaving us to absorb less of the never-ending information than intended, while trying to master too many tasks and skills at a time. This technology boom has begun to alter the way we think, read, use and act with information and daily routines.

4. To be completely competent in my field of study and others related. Be able to learn from some and teach others what i in turn have learned. I am hoping to market and advertise for sustainable companies, ideas, knowledge and products.
