Hello everyone. My name is Shawn Shannon and I am from Grafton. Grafton is a small town in central MA right outside of Worcester. I have lived in Grafton my whole life and graduated from Grafton High School. I am now a freshman here at Nichols College studying general business in hopes to gain enough knowledge to someday become an entrepreneur. Ever since I was a little kid I have always wanted to own my own business and have it be successful. When I was just fifteen I started my own painting business with one of my friends over the summer. We did interior and exterior painting for a bunch of different houses in town. It only lasted until we returned to school, but it gave me the confidence that I would be able to become a bigger entrepreneur when I graduate.
From this class I am trying to get a better understanding of all the different programs on the computer. I feel like I am already pretty educated in most of the programs but I’m expecting that I will learn a bunch of new tricks regarding all of the programs.
I’m a huge truck person, especially the Chevy Silverado. I grew up with my father always driving a Chevy Silverado so I told myself that I would own one myself one day. So I worked a bunch of different jobs to raise enough money to get a truck for my first car. By the time I was ready to get my license I had enough money so get exactly what I wanted. I got a white 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500. Since the day I bought it, it has been my pride and joy. Whenever I make some extra money I immediately put in into my truck making it exactly how I want it. So for my blog I chose one that talks about the Chevy Silverado.

Hello Shawn. I enjoyed reading your blog post and surely got a general sense of the type of person you are. We are a lot alike in some aspects. For instance we both love cars. I also mentioned in my blog post that I enjoy cars and have also put a lot of money, time, and effort into mine. We also both are looking to get the same thing out of digital apps. We both want to learn how to become more proficient in using programs on the computer such as Microsoft Word. I also noticed that you are from Grafton. I know quite a few people from that town from me visiting it several times in the past. It's a great town and is very similar to my home town Rockland. Overall, I enjoyed reading your blog post and learned a significant amount about you just from reading your detailed post. Job well done!
ReplyDeleteShawn, I had just read your blog post and I found it very interesting. I thought it was pretty cool that you worked all your childhood for this truck. Having a childhood dream, and making it come true is an awesome accomplishment. And I also found it interested that you and your friends started a painting job just for a little cash. I did the same thing with landscaping over one summer. I enjoyed reading your blogpost
ReplyDeleteHey Shawn, I just finished reading your blog and the part that really caught my attention was definitely that you're a truck fan. I love trucks myself and back home in Texas I own a 2006 King Ranch that is also my pride and joy. I think it's great that you were so dedicated to getting a truck that you saved up your money and worked hard to make it happen. Just from that, you can tell a little bit more of what type of person you really are. Also, we both want to get the same thing out of this class I think. We both want to become more skillful in the programs that we will be learning about in the class. I really enjoyed reading your blogpost and learned some things about you.
