Word, it may seem like an easy little document where you just open up and type, but do you really know how to use it? We can all admit that word is probably one of the most widely used documents, but there's much more to it then meets the eye. It gives you the basic option, change the font and size of the text, even changing the color! But you can also make your words into art! There's options on word where you can put a border around a specific word or sentence. And that border can come from the library of lines, dots, stars, and even Christmas trees! Automatic bullets, indents, pages, paragraphs allow you to just write and word will do everything else for you! And who said that word is just for writing papers? You can change the view of word to anything from a normal view, print layout, an outline, and even a web page layout! On top of that, with word, you can make your very own resume!

Better know as Excel, this program makes organizing data easy as typing in numbers! What better way to organize numbers and information then in an easy-to-use spreadsheet such as this? Excel allows you to organize numbers using categories that you can make. You can make it months, weeks, and days too. And you can make it colorful and exciting, instead of just black and white. It has many the same formatting tools as Word, minus a couple of the font choices. But if you're gonna make a spreadsheet, why not make it entertaining to look at?

Not many people know about the database program for Microsoft. It's called Access, and its used to store data in its own format. But even though it's not very popular, that doesn't mean it's not useful. It's an easy and advanced way to make a table, a report, a form, and different pages in one system that connects all your things for that one project together! Access allows you to set up a table and put the specifics of what you want in it, such as a description of what the title of a column means and the number of characters allowed in that column. With Access, you can also make a report to sum up the important parts of a table and make it easier for the client of whoever is reading to read.

Power Point Presentation is one of those things that everyone knows what it is. If you're told to make a power point, you  go to the computer, pull up Microsoft Power Point and get to work! But there's more then one kind of power point. For example, there's Microsoft Power Point, which has many different years of the applications, 2000-2008! They give updates to each year, so not all computers have the same things on their power points, making it difficult to transfer power points from one computer to another. But there's also Google Presentations, which is an online power point application. It doesn't have as many little details as Microsoft Power Point, but it's ten times easier to transfer from one computer to another, all you have to do is log in! It's also free, so making an account wont cost you a dime! Plus, you can add collaborators to google presentation so instead of all working on 12 different copies of one presentation, everyone's working on the same one!

I love music, it literally makes my world go 'round! My iPod isn't even big enough for all the songs I have! My mom says I've been gifted with an ear for good tone and rhythm, and that i'm lucky, because when I wanted to play an instrument, that helped a lot! I play the violin, and I know that's kinda dorky, but I don't care! When played right, the violin can make beautiful sounds unlike any instrument you'll ever hear.And when you take a violin, plus a little viola and a bit of cello and bass, it's perfect harmony and a beautiful and moving sound.
But music in general is something everyone can enjoy! Bellow are some of my favorite songs!

I also have a nag for art, I have a creative imagination, and I like to put my thoughts onto paper. I see the world as a beautiful place where much is taken for granted. This is why i'm going into photography soon, so I can possibly capture that. I've always wanted to travel the world and capture the moments with a flash of my camera or a flick of a pencil. I must admit, i'm not as talented in this aspect as I am in music, but that's what practice is for, right?
