[dropcap]S[/dropcap]o, Windows 8 pretty much worked if you used it on a tablet, used it with a touchscreen or if you added other software to make it work/operate like Windows 7. Now, Microsoft comes out with Windows 10 and due to the ineptness of Windows 8, offers it as a free upgrade. Really?!? Where is the ‘gotchya’? I don’t know if I can believe it to be true or not, but I have scheduled my upgrade (well, at least have it downloaded) and may upgrade another PC. I just don’t know if I could do this to my primary laptop or not. What do you think? Do you believe all of the other tech blogs?

[dropcap]I[/dropcap]t’s almost that time again where school begins and the endless questions start about class. “Where is this?” or “What is the grading scale?” or my favorite, “Is there a final in this class?”. I typically want to answer each student quickly and precisely with, “READ THE SYLLABUS! It’s in there, I promise!”
I’ve been teaching for awhile now and have really gotten used to teaching a class. I know what a student needs to know and what they need to succeed in class. It’s all in the syllabus. It has to be, that’s how classes work. It’s a contract between the professor and the student. Without a contract, the class is essentially not valid. Therefore, if you have a question, chances are… “It’s in the syllabus!”

[dropcap]H[/dropcap]ello Fresh had provided a very good meal a couple of weeks back that was truly out of this world, Peruvian Shrimp Ceviche Tacos with Pico de Gallo and Avocado. Hello Fresh says Ceviche has been declared a part of the Peruvian national heritage, and for good reason! Composed of “raw” seafood, fresh citrus, onions, chilies, and spices, this dish celebrates the fresh, delicate flavors of the sea. Believe it or not, tender shrimp are so delicate that mere lemon juice alone can cook it!

[dropcap]I[/dropcap]t’s funny how life changes. You’re moving forward one day and then someone slams on the brakes. How you identify yourself is often very important, but what happens when you can’t do that anymore? Life changes, we change, people change, even our identity changes, but how we deal with that is important to move on to the next chapter in our lives.
I’m in that part of my life, not really mid-life as I feel I will live for a long time, but where the decisions I make now will affect at least the next twenty years or so. People from all around my life have their thoughts and ideas as they are in my life as well. My advice to them, don’t judge my story by this chapter.
I don’t know where I will be going or what I will be doing, but I know that I will. Hang tight, stay with me and let’s see what adventure comes next.
