It's da blog, for da class

During the first week trying to get into Stevens institute was a bit of a bind as the When we came to the campus we couldn't find Hayden hall, after a few minutes we did get there. Seeing the view of NY was amazing, no matter how many times I go to New York City the experience is all the same to me whenever I see the amazing view. Meeting everyone at first I started off quiet. We all started to speak to each other when we were all at the Habachi grill seeing the chiefs amazing cooking skills.of course knowing me I wasn't able to connect with everyone right on the first week because of my voice being very low for others to hear. However after a few mixups everyone turned out to be amazing to be around, I even made my own repretation that I normally do! (Side joke) Academics first class being probability and statistics was a little challenging to me due to the fact that I am not good at word problems and never know what formula to use when tackling those kinds of problems. T...

There are many reasons towards why leadership can be important in academic and career development. One trait I believe that is universal is responsibility. In order to thrive throughout live in GENERAL is being responsible. Things like being on time for events, getting work on time, planning ahead and making a flexible schedule. These factors are traits of being responsible and having this kind of trait can put you at an extreme advantage towards your career and life ahead of you. Another trait of being a leader is having control of your emotions. In your career or academic sometimes you'll be likely to be on a team, you'll have a lot of work to do and sometimes have a co worker that will  difficult to deal with. It's up to you to be able to deal with these type of situations and have control of your emotions and know when to put your foot down and when to take a step back, getting angry or getting upset when you don't have your way in situations can show signs of w...

There are a verity of qualites and skills it takes to make an effective leader. For example I believe a leader must be bold. One must be ready to take risk of they are in a pinch or if need to be able take a gamble to be able to turn the tables in the situation. If not you'll never know where you can get in life. Another trait is being able to learn and improve. I happen to take this trait very seriously. I believe that in order to be able to develop your own character you must be able to open minded and accept criticism which can be used to improve your faults or flaws. How will you be able to develop yourself if you are close minded and shut your mind from being able to learn from your mistakes to make sure they don't occur as often or at all?  I believe that's accepting and learning from your failures is the quickest ways to improve, as in being able to Analyze from your shortcomings and letting it mold you into a better being. There are plenty of times I would mess ...

During the second week, I realized that it went by a lot faster than the first week in my opinion. The first week It appeared slower because In was still getting used to everything and the new schedule I have and surroundings. So far I really enjoy leadership class because I really enjoy learning new things about myself and using my weaknesses to improve on myself overall. For example, I learned that I am a tactile learner, I learned new skills and concepts to incorporate with myself. For probability and statistics, I feel as if I'm having a problem retaining the memory for that class. For precalc it's a little hard to understand everything, however, I've been using a site called khan academy and I must say it definitely is helping me. Lastly for career prep, in my opinion, is the most overwhelming because personally thinking of my future job and thinking what beholds in my future gets me a bit nervous as I'm still thinking about what ...

I dream of being able to work from home. Mainly because I love to travel. I wouldn't mind bringing my work along with me as I travel. I always had an interest in technology and electronics. I know the basics of how to build a computer, the ins and outs, how it functions etc. I thought about computer science but I learned about ITI and so far I have my mind set on that major. At the moment I am in liberal arts for community college learning about graphic design. After that, I would want to do something for ITI. As it has many diversities I have my might set on something as a web designer or a video game designer. At the moment I use my free time to learn to code, however, once I get into a university, Mainly Rutgers New Brunswick, I would like to get an internship. By the time it did college I want to go into the peace core for two years then start my free job.

On my way down to Stevens institute of technology I was curious what was in store for me. I went into Hayden hall and saw my name and on the door, and no one way there! I have the room all to myself. In my head my thoughts were "oh my goodness I never felt so free before" as being in a dorm is an entirely new experience for me. Honestly already I'm in love with it. I started making friends on the very first day and already it's like we've known each other forever. I was excited when I found out I'm going into pre calc after taking my placement test. It's a little overwhelming but I feel like I will start to pick up the pace after awhile. Getting to know the area around Stevens institute you can clearly see it has so much to offer, you can see manhattan and the riverside from my own dorm, there are restaurants and chill out spots all over, and just so many views in just a small area of the campus. It's only been few days so far, but at the moment it...

I have high expectations for this course around this time. However that doesn't come without its challenges. Knowing your strengths and weaknesses can really come in handy when effectively learning new information. For instance, for my weaknesses. Unfortunately I have a very slow learning curve. Where others can learn something in 10mins, it  would take me at the very least 30mins or even an entire day to understand a concept. Not the best when learning something new which is why I need someone who is patient to help me with my progression. Another weakness is my ADHD. I get distracted very easily, especially in quiet environments where there isn't much going on. I normally listen to music to help with this, although depending on the situation I can't always do that. However I do have a lot of strengths. For example I am very determined to learn, you know what they say "you only get out the most of what you invest your time into.  As long as I'm willing to put i...

I'm Niles LoVerso and I attend Camden county college, planning to transfer to Rutgers New Brunswick. I would like to major in computer science for ITI. You can think of ITI as computer science but with less math, you work with not only coding but even the hardware aspect of computer and tech. As you may tell from reading this I love technology, from video games to building computers to having all the latest gadgets. I love being social and making new friends. In my free time I have a diverse of hobbies such practicing guitar, juggling, learning something new or reading, to exercising with friends, I'm usually always on the move. On my side time I do like to read or to relax I like to do origami. I decided to attend MIP because I want to improve my math skills, especially when fall semester starts again my goal is to learn as many formulas, tricks, and advice I can get in this program to further improve myself in general, I can't wait to get more into the program and see...

My company is called Watches Upon Whiles By Niles. My plan is to sell classic watches and smartwatches The consumers I wish to cater to are teens to adults that are tech geeks and or have a taste in fashion. I plan to compete with watch stores as my store caters to specifically smart watches and classic style watches.

2009, Neil Standfield was arrested over 2 years for buying own brands and repackaging and selling them to food retailers, although it wasn't the best thing to do, it did prove that depending on how you brand a product it can raise the value of it. In my opinion I didn't thought it was an interesting plan. However I don't think he should of resold them, perhaps done maybe present the idea to other companies to get a profit for it.

In this Article, it talks about the Chief designer of Nike, John Hoke and how his dyslexia makes him see things much differently. I like the fact how he doesn't let his condition affect him in a negative way. Instead, he made use it to his advantage and in the end, his design is favored by millions to this day as many people around the world supports Nike and loves its iconic design logo.

The article was about an interview with Dave Perillo, nicknamed Montygog. I realized a lot of things. For example, one way to get people to recognize you is by letting people see your work publically. For example Deviantart. A great way to show other artists your work and for everyone to critic others art for the better. improving your art to where maybe even officials will want to hire you for work. That was my main thoughts which made me think hard on during this interview. 

In this article, it talks about an interview with Dustin Stanton. I thought it was pretty cool that he was able to get a job designing movie posters in high school to get an early start. I also find a nice little detail of how for the movie poster "The Master" was just a photograph but the way it was photoshopped made it look incredible. I find it interesting looking at the process of how designers learn from their previous work and incorporate it into new projects and how it really shines compared from the old work.
