Week 11 Tech Tips : Create Wikipedia Account

I use Wikipedia quite frequently. Whenever I'm studying something and I don't understand it, oftentimes I'll search it on Wikipedia to see if it will help shed some light on my confusion. I also use it a lot when I am writing papers to search for good sources. I did not have a Wikipedia account, nor did I think I would ever have one. I'm too scared to edit stuff on Wikipedia. Maybe after I get my Ph.D. I'll have a little more confidence and try to edit articles that talk about stuff I'm familiar with, but until then I don't think I'll be doing much editing. I don't know which features I'll use, maybe when I get into grad school I'll start following certain posts? I have changed the layout though. I chose the timeless layout because I thought it looked really good.

My name is Jose Juan Ruiz Macias Jr. I am the son of Jose Juan Macias Ruiz and Irma Liliana Ruiz Ramos. Both are Mexican immigrants that came to the USA in 1997. I was born that same year in the small town of Sun Valley, Idaho. I spent my first year of life there. My dad wasn't a big fan of the cold weather, so we moved to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, where he previously lived for a couple of years with his older brothers. I grew up in the south side of OKC next to OCCC. I attended Western Heights High School and graduated in the top ten percent with distinguished honors. I also played soccer and ran cross-country from sophomore to senior year. I came to OU as an undecided major, pursuing a career in pharmacy. After two years, I changed majors to chemical bioscience, and now I am in the process of applying to grad schools to obtain a PhD.D. I am not exactly sure what I want to study. I've looked at several programs including biochemistry, molecular biology, pathology, and genetic

Image of a bloody knife. Image from  https://www.pinterest.com/pin/164944405087963930/?autologin=true It was a stormy and lonely Thursday evening at the diner, a man with great white hair and a face worn down by years walks in and sits at the counter. He wore a long grey coat over his wrangler jeans and button-up shirt. The waitress could tell he was troubled. Man: "I'll take a coffee, please." His voice was so deep and robust it imitated the thunder from the storm outside. Waitress: "Sure thing, hun, any dinner or  slice of pie for you tonight?" Man: "No thank you." The waitress quickly brewed up a fresh batch of steaming hot coffee. The earthy aroma filled the diner. Waitress: "Here you go hun. Sugar or creamer?" Man: "Please." The waitress grabbed a couple packets of each and placed them by the man's cup. He slowly added them to his drink while he waited for the coffee to cool. Waitress: "So what
