My Previous Experience with Word

I've been using Microsoft Word since middle school. I have spent enough time using the program to have mastered the basics. I would like to review using rulers for indenting and working with graphics since I have not used them in a long time. Also, I am still getting used to the new Microsoft Word (2007-present). I look forward to spending time in class adjusting to the new version of Word.

Joe Hatch's Visit

Earlier today, Joe Hatch came in to talk to our class about computer survival skills. He shared with us some useful computer information, where to go for computer help on campus, and why we need Clean Access Agent on our computers. His speech was very interesting and I learned a lot about the dangers of computer viruses. It was nice of him to visit our class, especially since it was 8:30 in the morning!

Entry 1

Hi! My name is Nick Lilly.

I am from Boca Raton, Florida. I have lived there for eighteen years. I have one brother and three dogs. I was the only kid from my high school to go to college in Texas. I started swimming when I was thirteen years old and I swim for the varsity team here. My secret fact is that I broke my elbow ice skating and couldn't swim for two months. Since swimming is so time consuming, I haven't involved myself with many other school-related activities. I'm planning to make myself more active in the school community when the swim season ends next month.

Although I went to a high school where every student was required to bring a laptop with them to class, I am not very tech-savy. I look forward to learning more about computers and improving my computer skills. I have no concerns other than learning how to make doing homework on the computer less stressful. My e-mail is nlilly@trinity.edu. The picture below is a Google Earth-produced shot of Boca Raton, Florida.
