Without further ado, here are the A-Z’s of your Freshman year of college.

Tough B., Inc. Business Plan
The Tough B business plan summary is all about how many articles I’m going to publish. Sometimes you hear back from a pitch but other times, you have to wait a while to hear back at all. There are many options to publish my work in. One story is a quirky piece with details that are changed, reading almost like a composite in a psychology self-help book. This story is about how to be a child of an untreated narcissist. This is a bizarre and quirky story to write since I have to change identifying details anyway. I found a market for The Perfect Copy. I need to write a goals list off of Tough B, Inc. business plan one. I have another Tough B. Inc. business plan two for blogs.

No Love for Ex-Bosses
Several months had passed since I was laid off from my job as an administrative assistant. A former co-worker who was still employed at the company asked if I kept in contact with my ex-boss, Martin (not his real name). “No,” I said, before changing the subject. Why would I bother to keep ties with a man who obviously didn’t give a damn about how I was going to survive after his actions?

5 Signs You Are in a 'Bad Room'
5 Signs That You Are In a "Bad Room" Michelle Wolf was the 2018 comedian for the White House Correspondents' dinner. She, like every comedian the years before, is put in the position to make Rich Politicians laugh. But is it really her fault if they didn't laugh at her material, like her style, or found her distasteful? Not exactly...really, it's C-SPAN; the Channel that puts on the dinner every year and knows who exactly they are bringing, whether it be guest or performers. Since it seems C-SPAN didn't really do the homework of who Michelle Wolf was and how she writes her jokes, we have the unhappy accident of a really great artist being put in a 'Bad Room' *bum Bum BUM.*

Revision Tips
Tip 1: Get the SPECIFICATION. At least for A-Levels & GCSE, make sure you have the SPECIFICATION/Course Outline from the start of the year so that you always have something to refer to during revision. If you can, try to go through it before getting to your first lesson of that subject so you know what you will be learning that year, even if you don't understand anything yet.

Is Music a Good Choice for a Major?
My Journey of Picking Music as My Major in College In high school, I knew my passion was singing. I would look forward to chorus, I quit the cheerleading team to be in the musical and some of my favorite moments were when we would be waiting for rehearsal and we would start singing a cappella all in harmony and melody... it was beautiful.
