  Every time I go shopping with my mom, she always checks the quality of material, the brand of the product, and look for any defects to ensure that what we buy is of high quality. She doesn't care if it took her a few minutes as long as she is sure that the product we are going to purchase is of high quality. She has a specific criterion in selecting what product are worthy to purchase. This habit of her somewhat grew on me, I’ve also started doing the same thing to ensure I purchase a high-quality product. Not everything posted online is true or factual. Some are just made-up stories which everyone tends to believe, which is sad. In today’s digital world, the internet is flooded with millions of information that you could think of. However, most of them are fake and are just made-up stories.

My journey with IT technology begun when I started exploring the ways of different software applications. But the journey that left a lasting expression ...

When Dr. Salazar told us that she would be expecting a well-written blog from us, I was nervous. I've always found writing to be a bit of an enemy. The thought of sitting down and writing on a blank page and trying to find the "right" words is hard for me—just like what I’m experiencing while writing this blog. To be honest, writing really bores me. I've always preferred spontaneous talking rather than writing. So, bear with me as I navigate through writing this blog, because, truth be told, I’m still an amateur at this. But, as a famous TikTok video says, “Never back down, never what? NEVER GIVE UP!” So, here I am, ready to give this blog my best shot. Of course, I’d start this blog by stating how I begin my day with technology. As soon as I wake up, I reach for my phone and connect it to the Wi-Fi to check for new messages on my Messenger app. I also use my phone to set an alarm so I could wake up early, but I always woke up before my alarm (I think it's my body...
