This week’s
assignment is a little uncomfortable for me. Although teenagers are quick to
judge, that is not who I am…for the most part. I pushed it to Wednesday’s blog
date because it was so hard for me to think that I would have to read through a
bunch of people’s personal blogs and tell them that their righting is horrible.
As I red the first blog though, I realized, most of these blogs are going to be
really good.
The first
blog that I read was Catherine Ranaudo’s. Her blog about her parents divorce was
well written and made me think. One of my worst fears is getting a divorce and
being in the pain that her mother felt. That’s what I consider a good post,
something that can make me think. Something that can also make me feel
different emotions.
I chose to
read Weston Gambardella’s blog next. I figured that considering he puts so much
insight in class his blog posts would have the same effect. The first thing I
noticed was his titles. Things like, “practice makes perfect, but nobody is
perfect, so why practice?” That wasn’t my favorite blog though. My favorite on
his pages was, “overcoming obstacles.” It made me think about something that we
don’t think about nearly enough: the fact that we (each individual) are not the
center of the universe. I believe this is something that we forget way to
frequently and was very mature of him to put something so thoughtful onto a
blog read by a bunch of teenagers.
Bethany
Castellano’s blog, “Boston Girl takes on Southern,” not only has a catchy name
but it is also very well written. “Eat. Sleep. Success.” was the blog that I was
most into. I really enjoyed how so explained how we need sleep whenever we can
and not just when it is socially acceptable. For a girl who loves naps, this is
a motto I live by! Her blog itself was very cute and drew me in from first
glance.
At the end
of all of these blogs, I’m sure I could give you good parts about all of them. For
me, these blogs were three that I was drawn into and held my interest.
