In the last week I have had to make several small decisions.
On a daily basis some of the smaller choices I have to make are:
· -What time I need to up by
· -What time do I need to get Emerson up, dressed,
and fed
· -The time do I need to leave my house by to get
to work or school on time
· -If I have night class then I need to decide to
ask to pick Emerson up from daycare
· -What to make Emerson and I for dinner
Small choices in the past month:
· -What bills to pay and when
· -The days Emerson goes to his Grandma’s house
· -Emerson’s monthly daycare schedule
I also have to make big decisions on a weekly basis:
· -What days and hours I’m going to work
· -Patient flow at work
· -Supply ordering at work
· -When to go grocery shopping/What I need
· - What homework do I need to have completed for
the next day
Big decisions in the past month:
· -To go back to school
· -Which school to go to
· -What classes and times
Big decisions in the past year:
· -What car to buy (sedan or SUV)
· - Do I want a car payment or a cheaper car with no
payment
· -Major for school-Nursing or Hygiene
· - What dental assisting jobs to apply for
Over the past year I make small decisions on a daily basis
and are usually the same because my son is my number one priority and are daily
routines are pretty consistent. My chart can basically show you that my life
primarily revolves around my son, work, and school.

Two of the most popular websites you can find me on will be
the Sephora website or the MAC website. I don’t get out of the house much
besides for work or school, so I do a lot of online shopping, even for makeup. The Sephora website is very user friendly. On
the home page it has new products to try and current sales. There’s different
tabs at the top that categorize different products such as make up or skin
care. It has pictures for every product and they sell more than just one brand
and gives customer reviews for them. It is full of pops and colors. The MAC
website is also user friendly, if you know what you’re looking for, otherwise
it is difficult to navigate. It is a lot edgier than the Sephora sight and only
sells their brand of makeup. They have pictures and sketches for different
looks and directions on how to achieve that look, but only give makeup artists
reviews.
I think Sephora is a better website because the layout of
their website is a lot easier; within the first glance you can see which category
you’re looking for if you’re not just browsing through. It has images of the
product, price, and shows other options of similar products or what other
products that would go with it. Such as when I’m looking at eye shadows, underneath
that product’s detail it shows different colors for your specific eye color to
help your eyes ‘pop’. They also have a clearance section, because who doesn’t like
discounts?
I would change the MAC website to make it more consumer
friendly by adding customer reviews with the makeup artists reviews because not
everyone is a makeup artist and has that form of skill. I would also add ‘every
day’ looks instead of just runway looks because not everyone that wear their
makeup is a runway model. The format could also be changed by making it easier
to navigate with product categories such as one for the Viva Glam line and one
for their skin care line.
