Hibba Said: Journal 9

Being a girl who is literally in love with everything basketball, I religiously watch/follow NBA. "Hang Time Podcasts" is a podcast that follows up and analyzes NBA as well as hosts many reliable people in the field to share their opinion. One prominent person who was hosted on this podcast was David Aldridge. For those who do not know who he is, Aldridge is an NBA Hall of Famer and TNT analyst. He knows the game like his left and right hands- which is why I love listening to this podcast, especially when he is hosted. I think this podcast is important. Not solely because I enjoy basketball so I feel like others will enjoy it when they get to know the game, but because I feel like many are stuck with one team and know minimal amounts about why they like their team and so on. This podcast introduces you to other opinions, teams, perspectives, and point of views. I started listening to this stream a couple years ago when I got into basketball, but it's definitely not too late to give it a shot and get educated!

Now this website right here, I have been using since high school and even more in college. If you're a college student that hasn't turned to Khan Academy in times of hardships during school work- then you can thank me later! Khan Academy is a non-profit educational organization created in 2006 by educator Salman Khan with a goal of creating a set of online tools that help educate students. The organization produces short lessons in the form of YouTube videos. You can find all types of videos for all types of classes and subjects on this website. Some of many include: Math, Science & Engineering, Arts & Humanities, and Economics. I've turned to this website a plethora of times throughout the duration of my calculus course and my Chemistry course. You'd expect since it's free that it would be low-quality material but contrary to that, the work is well done and the person directing the video seems highly knowledgeable. If you haven't checked Khan Academy out, I really do recommend it!
