Discussion Assignment 1: Introduction by Claudia Perez https://padlet.com/cperezee/42gj9ot2vcz6 en-us 2017-01-25 04:14:31 UTC 2025-11-15 02:49:02 UTC hello@padlet.com About your's truly... cperezee https://padlet.com/cperezee/42gj9ot2vcz6/wish/149219289 My name is Claudia and I was born in Chile but immigrated to Canada when I was just 10 years old. Now I live in Niagara Falls, Ontario with my family, two dogs, and a cat.]]> 2017-01-25 04:26:50 UTC https://padlet.com/cperezee/42gj9ot2vcz6/wish/149219289 Best and worst characteristic cperezee https://padlet.com/cperezee/42gj9ot2vcz6/wish/149220003 It's really hard for me to analyze myself and come up with what I would consider my best characteristic. I can come up with a million bad ones but a good one is not so easy. So I think my worst one is that I procrastinate more often than not which is something I'm working on to improve. My best characteristic would be that I am driven. When I am faced with a challenge, I don't give up until I succeed. ]]> 2017-01-25 04:36:59 UTC https://padlet.com/cperezee/42gj9ot2vcz6/wish/149220003 Current employment status cperezee https://padlet.com/cperezee/42gj9ot2vcz6/wish/149220246 I just finished my undergrad in Accounting. I'm currently working on completing my MBA with a focus in Finance. At the moment, I'm looking for  a position in the accounting field. I haven't had many interviews but I've got a 2nd job interview Wednesday for a position that looks promising so wish me luck. ]]> 2017-01-25 04:40:45 UTC https://padlet.com/cperezee/42gj9ot2vcz6/wish/149220246 Favorite Quote cperezee https://padlet.com/cperezee/42gj9ot2vcz6/wish/149220750 Well, I love Disney movies because they always have a lesson to teach not just for children but adults too. This is why one of my favorite business or motivational quotes is from Walt Disney himself.

"The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing."
                               -- Walt Disney

Often people have great ideas that go absolutely nowhere because it's all just talk with no action. That is why this is a great motivator to get up and get started for anyone wanting to embark on a new endeavor.

Covey. I've heard that it is very motivational and inspirational for both business and personal life.

It was my first time being there. The weather was great and the sites were even better. Below is a picture of me enjoy a delicious Cuba Libre or as most of you know it, a Rum and Coke. Yes people...be jealous...it was great!!! ]]> 2017-01-25 05:52:56 UTC https://padlet.com/cperezee/42gj9ot2vcz6/wish/149224226 I love both my dogs but my favorite is.... cperezee https://padlet.com/cperezee/42gj9ot2vcz6/wish/149224770 Cosmo because he is lovable, huggable, chubby, and cute. He follows me everywhere except the basement because he's afraid of the dark and the stairs. He's fallen multiple times down the stairs the poor thing. In college I did a whole Powerpoint presentation that required the use of all aspects of Powerpoint on him. I put so much thought and effort into it that I got a perfect grade. Here's a picture of his lovely beautiful face that only a mother could love. ]]> 2017-01-25 06:05:28 UTC https://padlet.com/cperezee/42gj9ot2vcz6/wish/149224770 Favorite TV Show cperezee https://padlet.com/cperezee/42gj9ot2vcz6/wish/149499641 I wanted to share my "obsession" as my family likes to call it. My favorite show is the longest running televised sci-fi show called "SUPERNATURAL". It's about two brothers who fight against supernatural beings  to maintain peace on earth. I've included a little video to give you a taste of how awesome it is. ]]> 2017-01-26 02:51:32 UTC https://padlet.com/cperezee/42gj9ot2vcz6/wish/149499641 Favorite Actor cperezee https://padlet.com/cperezee/42gj9ot2vcz6/wish/149500213 On a related note...Jensen Ackles is the reason I watch Supernatural. Well, not really, it actually is a really good show but some eye candy doesn't hurt.
