Explore MLA style

I am a senior in University, so nowadays I have to begin my final research paper. I heard about MLA writing style one month ago, but only know a little about it. Since it is a homework to do some research, I choose to focus on MLA.
MLA is shor for Modern Language Association which is for scholars of language and literature. MLA writing style is designed for concise work sited in the reference. An alphabetical list of works cited is required according to  the principle. Of course, there are many others complicated rules to follow. If I need more information, I should buy a book called MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers. Fortunately, I found this book in the UCR library. This is an important information for me to start my final research paper.


I used google, wikipedia and yahoo to research "MLA."

Vlog!

Hey!~ Naomi's Vlog!

Through following these twits, I know what was happening in UCR sports, like UCR Men's Soccer team will play UC Irvine at 7:00 PM today. In addition, I can catch many breaking news by following CNN.


I tried to follow some Public Relations companies and to learn about it. However, it is less useful than I thought. There are lots of fun twits like A list of 23 Smartphone Apps that #PR Pros Can’t Live Without.


I used Chinese Twitter which is called Weibo to share life experiences with my friends.  As far as I concern, Twitter is useful for sharing between friends and for checking news by following news agency. I cannot explore marketing use so far. Hope I will after taking Social Media Marketing class.

my points toward marketing myself

In general, to market myself is to let people know me better. If people know me better, we can communicate easier. For example, I told my classmates that I'm an English learner, so they speak slowly and clearly for me to understand. If not, the communication between us might be difficult. Hobbies are in the same case. People will know my interest, and we can talk about it in our conference.


Moreover, the most important part of marketing myself is to get what I need from others after they know me better. It is same as selling product. I tell my potential customers what I can do and what you should do. They may have interest on this product or they may buy it.


To build my brand online needs effort. To update frequently is important, for always in the range of customers' sight. And to have connection with famous social medias like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn is a good way to market.
