Programs on my IPad

iPad 3 – My Thoughts
Being the owner of the iPad 1 and the iPad 2, I thought it was only appropriate to follow the launch of the iPad 3. The iPad 3 launch was brought to the public with high anticipation.

Leaving a Job – Integrity
This past week I had finished my position at an undisclosed company. It seemed to go fairly smoothly. I worked hard all week, tried to ensure my boss was comfortable and tried to fix as many issues as possible.
Happy New Year – 2012
Wishing everyone a Happy New Year – 2012!
New Year – Fresh Start
2012 is a new year and for many, a fresh start. I see 2012 as an opportunity to do something new, start fresh on other items and a chance to turn a new leaf. Often, your colleagues, bosses and friends whom known you for a long time and will not allow you to turn a new leaf; Do it anyways! Push forward in making yourself a better person this year. Do not let others hold you back. This is your chance to rid yourself of bad habits, learn something new, implement new ideas and grow as a person. Continue reading New Year – Fresh Start
