Miscommunication

There are times on the basketball when we miscommunicate. The coaches tell us that communication is the most important thing on the court. There are many times when miscommunication caused us to give up two or three points. Most of the time it is during a fast break and you have to pick up different players other than the ones that play your position. If the coaches see lack of communication in practice they make us run sprints. That shows you how important communication is in the game of basketball.

Interview

The interviewing process was not as easy as I thought it would be. You had to do more than answers questions from an interviewer, you also had to have a cover letter and resume. Having those two parts was not that bad since we already had to do it for class. One of the difficult parts for me was deciding what to wear. It was probably easy for most people but I was not sure if what I had on was appropriate. The overall process was quite an experience. It will definitely help me in the future when preparing for interviews.

Presentations

There were a lot of presentations that caught my eye but three stood out the most.  The first one that caught my eye was the one on Clemson traditions.  I did not know that Clemson was originally a military school until the presentation.  I had heard a little about how touching the rock came about, but I did not know the background.  The second presentation that stood out to me was the one on Rick Rubin.  This was my first time hearing his name.  I had heard of Russell Simmons but never Rick Rubin. The last presentation that stood out was the one on Dark Chocolate.  I had no clue that dark chocolate was so good for you.  I did not know it was full of antioxidants.  That would keep the cancer away.
