   A True MacBook 12 Inch Review Of Everyday Use

 Hello dear friends. Welcome to my blog. This will be an adventure for all of us. I am starting a new blog on what I want to write about. Things that I enjoy such as technology, working out, television, my college experience, and what ever else comes to mind. Today I want to write about my new MacBook.

    So, just a couple of weeks ago I purchased a new MacBook 12 inch laptop and I love it. I know all of the reviews on it say it isn't what it should be considering that it is $1300, but I still found that I enjoy this computer more that any other laptop that I have ever owned. What do I love about it, you might ask? Well for starters I love the fact that it has an Apple logo on so it will connect with to my iPad, and iPhone. Plus, I love that it is super thin, so it has a similar feel, as if I was carrying my iPad.
 
Look At That 
The Logo Says it All

    I like the Retina display that this computer has to offer. I feel like this is the best thing Apple could have done to make this computer worth the price. I also understand that this is using a Core M3 processor which is primarily used in mobile devices, but it still feels to be pretty peppy for my use as a student and just everyday blogging or youtube consumption. 

    Another thing that is great is this keyboard. I really like using the new butterfly system on the MacBook. I feel like with a little practice you would also enjoy using this keyboard as well. There is a little learning curve involved with typing on it but it isn't anything that is to complicated. You can see that the keyboard is covering the entire width of the computer, so Apple left no room unused on this device. 
 

    This little computer has been like a dream to own. I can't stress enough that it just works. It works seamlessly with al my Apple products. I can answer my phone calls on this Mac, I can iMessage on this Mac, I can FaceTime on this Mac and so much more. The Pages, Keynote, and Numbers software come free as a reason to buy this computer. The Microsoft Office software is extra if you buy a Windows machine....just saying. Also this thing has amazing speakers that can not be beat on a computer of this size. 

    I have tried the iMovie on my machine and so far it seems zippy to me. A lot of folks have been complaining about the Final Cut Pro and 4K but I can not speak on these matters since I haven't tried that type of video editing. In no way have I had this computer lag or slow down on me in my use. I am a student of Keiser University online and have written papers using Microsoft Word and have had Word, five or six browsers, and Apple Music open with no problems. 
  
    So, after a few weeks of use on this MacBook 12 inch, I can say that it is a wonderful addition to the MacBook family. I have owned a MacBook Pro 15 inch, MacBook Air 13 inch, and now a MacBook 12 inch, and this is my favorite so far. I also have an iPhone 8 and an iPad Air. I would highly recommend this computer to anyone who uses computers for school, email, some video editing, web browsing, blogging or any other everyday use. I know the price is high, but hey, it's an Apple.
 
Don't let the one USB-C port complaints  scare you from buying this machine. I actually purchased a really nice adaptor at Staples for $17 that fixed that problem very easily. My battery lasts up to 8 hours which is great, so need for more than one port so far.

ONN 7 inch Tablet Review

The Surf Onn Gen 2 7 inch tablet from Walmart is exactly what you'd expect from a Walmart tablet. The screen is decent but not great and the apps tend to crash from time to time. I bought the base model for $49 and got 2gb of RAM and 16gb of internal storage that was actually 11 from the pre installed apps.  As for usage the tablet performed well enough to be considered a nice entry level tablet and I feel the kids could use this as a cheap dedicated YouTube machine. Although folks who already have a taste for the big boy toys like the iPad or Samsung tablets may find this to be a toy.  Would I recommend this for anyone? Yes, surprisingly I would. This is a perfect entry level tablet for those who have a tight budget and need a machine to get online with for school, entertainment, kids enjoyment, or to simply apply to jobs, email, and other personal needs. This tablet will get the job done as long as its light work.

I’m Attending Southern New Hampshire University Online

 Hello friends. I’ve been doing some thinking lately. Although I do have a job it’s just a part time job and that leaves me with some free time. The job that I have isn’t the job that I’d like to retire from for sure. I just haven’t been happy with where my life has taken me. I felt it was time to make a few changes. Well I got online and looked for the best online colleges that I could find. I found a few and even tried one that didn’t work out.  Southern New Hampshire University seemed to be a good fit. The cost was dramatically less than other online schools. It does have a brick and mortar school that can be attended. And the reviews for the school aren’t all horrible. In other words it isn’t a diploma mill.  I’m only in my first class so far and it is a class about cultural diversity. I guess that’s a pretty good class for someone majoring in psychology. I’ve learned all about communicating with someone from a different culture than me. Culture could mean anything from race, sexua

Overcoming Depression

This week I decided to continue a series on depression. There are ways to help relieve some of the symptoms of depression. Finding a hobby or simply petting an animal can help overcome severe depression. In this video I discuss ways to overcome depression and help relieve some of the symptoms. I am no doctor nor am I a therapist but I live with chronic depression and bipolar disorder. I've lived with this since I was fourteen and I am now forty three. I know what depression is and I know what helps me. Sometimes depression wins while other times I can manage to force myself into doing something. I feel better after I use the tips from the video. Please watch and don't forget to subscribe.
