Karin went through the NAPE Workshop on November 11th and she is doing well with the verification & order protocols. She tends to ask callers to repeat contact information often, also needs to be mindful of her responses and that her tone is not taking in a negative way. Karin also needs to work on capturing accurate station information and following through with the closing scripts.…
Opening her email, she started a new one. Glancing at the paper work with all the instructions, she realized she was not given much information. Sighing she started writing. Dear Whom Ever: Sorry for the lack of a fancy entrance to this email, I unfortunately was not given your name so I could address is appropriately.…
During this weekend, I can say that I experienced all three levels of communication. It is something that at first, I did not realize that I was being that particular way. During the course of my day, then I would realize. For example, the I-It communication level is something that I experience everyday and I’m sure we all do. When I pick up my coffee, when I buy clothes, and when I walk into a store etc.…
Changing the Playing Field It’s go time. We take the field and get ready to throw down. Everyone is ready to give their best to the challenging task at hand.…
During the hike I thought a lot about my summer reading, but sadly it didn't help me face the monster... During July of 2015 I was reading Into Thin Air while driving down south. While there, my family went on a hike that was on a smaller scale of Everest, but still gave me many lessons to take away from it. It was a short but scenic drive from the place we were staying to the long, treacherous trail. My brother and I started walking at a faster pace than our parents so we arrived at the first obstacle before our parents.…
Lets Make it A Hobby One of my hobbies is to break a norm. When I first heard about breaking a norm was in 2014, one of my friends mentioned it while we were talking about my major, psychology.…
Lately the days feel like they are combining together. I cannot keep up with them. Next week is the week of finals, and I am so ready for them. I know I can do it. In all of my classes I am passing.…
The social norm that I violated was singing out loud on a public place. Well I did not really get to sing loudly on a bus or train. I did however sing loudly while I was shopping in Wal-Mart. I thought it was the next best thing than singing on a bus or something. Since there are tons of people at Wal-Mart in the first place.…
The norm may not always be the right way to go. I no longer want to be a part of a popular or important group of people, if I feel that what the group is doing or believes in is wrong, even if it means I'm not a part of the norm. I am not afraid to stand out on my own. I have challenged this belief for many years. When I was in elementary school, I was bullied by a group of girls that I hung with, looked up to and idolized.…
Sitting in Portola with a group of my hometown friends I start to build up my courage. I knew I had to complete my experiment, but I quickly learned how difficult it is to break a social taboo. It makes you uncomfortable and nervous. I could not help to think the impression it might leave on the unknown participant. I was worried about the looks I may receive or the comments that could be potentially made.…
I remember the day when I had the thought that would from that day on never fail to amaze me. I remember walking down Michigan Avenue in Chicago with the smell of Garrett Popcorn and sewage roaming the air. I remember seeing businessmen and business women making their way to work rolling their briefcases down the street. I remember the massive amount of tourists, including myself, stopping every five feet to take pictures of the beautiful sights of the city. I remember thinking to myself, “Why can’t these people learn how to walk in a polite and organized fashion?”…
“Deeper Into my Life” Individuals are unique in their own ways and one of mine happens to be my name, Darrnyejah Bolds. Everywhere I go people have a hard time pronouncing it. Many people have given up and just refer to me as “Ms. Bolds,” but also I have two nicknames “Nye”, and “Nyejah,” which is mostly used by family and friends. Over the years, I have adjusted to my nicknames and became very comfortable with them. I entered this world on February 27, 1997 with the zodiac sign of Pisces.…
I had heard those words so many times, way too many times. “We’re moving!” My parents would always say excitedly. Seven times, six states across the country all in a matter of 15 years. My parents have moved our family again and again which has affected me in a positive and negative way.…
The relationship I chose to analyze for my interpersonal communication paper was the relationship I had with my ex-girlfriend Laura. We met in high school through mutual friends and we dated throughout my junior and senior years. Communication problems and trust issues eventually were too big of a barrier to knock down and our relationship ended there. The main concepts I chose to analyze about my previous relationship were Personal Language, Nonverbal Communication, Proximity, the Social Penetration Theory, and lastly Relationship Threats. Personal Language shows your true self and is how you express your individuality and it is also more common in a private setting.…
