Think About Your Own Use of Analysis

	Small Decision	Large Decision
Week	I decided to eat Special K for breakfast, to maintain a good diet. This decision made for a better eating lifestyle.	I decided to start a 14 week workout plan created by the Toronto Blue Jays. This choice will help me get back into top notch shape for baseball.

Look For Analysis in Everyday Use

I analyzed to websites, Travelocity and Trip Advisor. I felt more comfortable with Travelocity because I felt like it was a more thorough search of what you are looking for. Both had a good search bar, but Travelocity felt more in depth, asking about number of people and number of beds. Trip Advisor almost felt like it was hiding its tabs. I felt I could plan a complete trip more easily with Travelocity, it had everything from the flight, the car rentals, cruises, and even things to do where you’re at. While Trip Advisor felt like you had to do everything one at a time, and not plan everything as one big trip. Both sites had great reviews, which helps immensely in deciding which airline to take, or what hotel to stay at. With the reviews, both sites had pictures but Trip Advisor’s seemed fake and photo shopped, while Travelocity seemed more realistic to what you would see while at your destination. With Travelocity, they have great coupons on the home page ready for you to use, where Trip Advisor has you find codes to enter in at checkout. I feel that if I was Trip Advisor, I would have a similar homepage with coupons out in the open, along with maybe having customers take pictures of the hotel for the reviews. As far as Travelocity goes, I know what site to use to plan my senior trip to San Diego California.
