My fix on Wikipedia

Yesterday, I fixed part of the wikipedia page for the professional soccer player, Abby Wambach.  For the section about her career in highschool there were some grammar mistakes and some information that was false. 

I checked the page today, and it remains the same as when I did it yesterday.  I think no one has changed it yet, because they know I put accurate information, and my grammar was perfect.

Wikipedia

I trust Wikipedia 20% of the time.  On Wikipedia sites any/everyone is allowed too change anything they see on the sites.  When doing a research paper for school I always avoid the site because I know it will more than likely give me false information.  For research papers I focus on using .org, .gov. or .edu, because I know those sites are more reliable.  I don't think students should be able to use Wikipedia.  It's a site that gives false information most of the time.  Wikipedia is best too be used as a last resort.  If you absolutely can't find any other information from any other other sites, then go to Wikipedia.  However, don't be surprised if it dissapoints you in the end.

My top 8 tips for passwords

1.) Don't create a password that contains any personal information.  From my own experiences, my brother has been able too hack my facebook and laptop accounts because I made easy passwords.  So, I've learned my lesson.
2.) Don't use any specific words and number.  Mix the two together!
3.) Use a password generator to create a good and unique password.
4.) Never write a password down, because someone may find it.
5.) NEVER reveal your password too anyone
6.) Always logoff your device and never leave it up.
7.) Don't use the same passwords for different things.
8.) And, DON'T use repeating characters.

My favorites.

I'm excited for creating a tutorial.  I get the oppourtunity to make two presentations that teach a student or teacher how to do something on the computer.  I'm a quick learner, so I'm sure I'd be able to makea tutorial based on my knowledge.  The only thing I'd have problems with is how the tutorial would be organized and what it would look like.

I'm stoked for creating a google calander.  I have two calander that are in my room.  I use them a lot.  Calanders are very important, and I really want to learn how to make one.  I'm good with decorating, but I'd like to learn how to use google calander and google docs to actual make my calander.

I think the stock market is going to be the coolest thing we do this trimester.  We get $10,000 in fake money too invest in a stock, and whoever has the most money at the end wins a prize.  I'll be good at this, because I'm great with handling money.  However, I will need help with actually investing in stocks, because I have no clue how to do that.

All About Me

I'm a very quiet girl in school, but get too know me and you'll realize how outgoing I really am.

I love my family.  My brother is and always be my best friend.  He's been there through everything with me, and I'd do anything for him.  My mom and I are like sisters.  We sometimes argue, but in the end, I go to her for help on everything.  My dad is one of the biggest goof balls I know.  He constantly makes me laugh, and I don't know what I'd do without him.

I'm a major country girl.  I love Blake Shelton, Rodney Atkins, Scotty McCreery, Luke Bryan, and Martina McBride.  Many people hate country, but I love the stories the music tells, and I like being able to relate to the music.

I love horror movies, and I hate love stories.  Every love story follows the same story line... It's stupid and nothing like real life.  Then again, neither are horror movies, but I don't care.  Horror movies are entertaining and I don't get grossed out one bit!  They fascinate me.

I'm a obsessed reading/book lover.  I read anything from romance, to suspense. My favorite books are The Hunger Games trilogy, anything by Iris Johansen, Wither, Paranormalacy, and Thirteen Reasons why.  I'm currently reading the book, Wake.  I love reading, because in my opinion it's way better than watching television.

The last and final thing you should know about me is my love for soccer.  I've played soccer since I was about 6 years old.  It's all I want too do.  I practice every single day, even on the days where I'm sick and don't feel good.  I was a starting Varsity player last year, and hopefully I am again this year.  I've grown up with all my soccer girls, and they are my other family.  I don't know what I'd do without this sport...
