I am Daniel Docus

I am 18 years old and graduated from Cimarron-Memorial High School as the Class of 2020. I was born in Honolulu, Hawaii. I lived there for about 4 or 5 years before moving to the Philippines. Though I am Filipino and have been exposed to my native language, Tagalog, my whole life inside of my household, I am unable to speak it but able to understand simple conversational Tagalog. After a year had passed I then moved to the place where I am now, Las Vegas. 12 years and going. Though I mostly stay indoors, I still despise the Vegas weather and intense heat but always look forward to the cold winters.

Things I like to do during my leisure is play video games and guitar. Video Games have been a huge apart of my life. When I was 5 years old I was gifted a Gameboy and played games like Pokémon for hours everyday. As of right now, I like to play a variety of games on my PC such as League of Legends, Valorant, Genshin Impact, etc. Ever since the start of quarantine, at March, I began to learn the guitar. At first I used an old guitar that I had laying around my house but eventually my parents gifted me a new guitar as a graduation gift since I had invested a lot of my time into learning. Currently, I have been learning for about 10 months now and am now able to play a handful of songs : ).

My First Impressions of IS101

So far I am enjoying IS101. Everything is simple and easy to follow and all of the assignments so far are not tedious work and teach me things that I can apply to other classes and the real world. One thing that I have never really done was organize my files and emails into various folders. One of the more helpful tools was from the first assignment which aided me in setting up folders and inbox rules so that everything is organized into it's respective folder. It makes checking my email much more convenient since I find myself struggling to find the right emails from time to time. I am looking forward to what other helpful tools and features that I will learn during this spring semester of IS101.
