Zap me with a bolt of lightening immediately! I nearly threw myself out of my one-story home when I saw a terribly embarrassing video I had made in high school on Youtube. Although there were only 82 views, my stomach still sank and I exploded with panic. The video was on a random Youtube account which I could not access because I had no idea what the email or password was. After several grueling hours I finally found an old notebook containing the glorious email and password I was searching for. I have never been so relieved to click the delete button.
Who knew I was on the Fashion Institute of Technology's Facebook banner?! After googling my full name Shannen Nicole Gallardo, I discovered my orientation common project group and I posing in the breezeway! I had noticed this same picture of us in FIT's spring 2014 orientation booklet but I had no idea we were also on FIT's Facebook banner as well. Our common project group was called Red Group 36 and the Youtube video I edited and filmed was also on the web; I included the link for our video below. Our group actually won the Fall 2013 orientation project so this brought back happy memories of my start at the Fashion Institute of Technology.
After viewing images on the google search I discovered my legs! I actually remember that day when a nice woman asked to photograph me from the waist down for a worldwide project she was working on. At first I was puzzled because I was trucking my way through the sea of fellow pedestrians to get to my morning class at the Fashion Institute of Technology; but she was really cool and it only took a minute.
I love the fact that all of my running stats are online at my finger tips. Running as a captain for my high school cross country, winter and spring track teams meant a lot to me. It was a sport I participated in but it was also a passion and still is today. This sport makes me tear up because it is so beautiful in a way that no other sports can compare to. At the end of a race, we shake hands with our opponents, we congratulate each other because in a race you either have it or you don't. We push each other to train harder. I loved running for the Fashion Institute of Technology for the fall 2013 cross country season. We won in our division and that was awesome! I even ran personal bests in my spring track 2014 season with my FIT track girls!
I continued to look through the various links attached to my name, and to my surprise someone is using my identity on a website called Houzz to sell curtains? I attached the link to this mysterious site below. They stole an old profile picture from my Facebook and used my full name, pretty creepy. I'm very confused and I have no clue how to settle this... But if those curtains begin to sell out I think I deserve a chunk of that change?
After accumulating all of this information about myself floating around the web, I have come to the conclusion I definitely need to google myself more often.
