Blog Reviews/ Best Hits

Monique- First of all, I really like your blog page. It represents who you are through your picture and use of color. Regarding your writing, I think you do a good job of providing voice throughout each of your blogs. You take a stand for what you believe and do a good job of conveying that to the reader. I think you have some editing errors throughout, but your overall writing seems good.
Although I enjoyed reading each of your blogs, “The American Dream” was one of my favorites. I liked how you began by acknowledging that the issue of immigration has been around forever. You did a good job of providing background information and by discussing the racist tension towards immigrants. Your paragraph flowed nicely with your personal opinions as well. Despite a few corrections that need to be made, your overall blog was interesting and conveyed a serious message.
Another blog I enjoyed was “We Need Government Structure”. You brought up some valid and legitimate points regarding how important having a government is. Your blog resembled a lot of my own views and I could really relate to your writing. This blog was full of detail and referenced good material. Good Job!!!!

Victoria- Having read most of your blogs before; I can honestly say you are a great writer. Each of your entries is full of voice and exceptional detail. Your paragraphs flow nicely and I like that you ask questions to keep your reader captivated. I also like the length of your blogs, they inform the reader but do not go on and on.
Your “Money, Money, Money” blog was one of my favorites and I think it would make an interesting final paper. Materialism is a major concept in today’s society and you do a great job of explaining that. I like how you pose the question regarding materialism being accepted just because it brings happiness. Maybe you could focus your final paper on that particular concept.
Another one of your blogs that I found extremely interesting was “We all come from somewhere”. I liked that you were able to talk about your own family heritage. It made it personable as well as interesting. I also think this would make a creative final blog. Finally, I liked your blog about animals being homosexual. It is an interesting concept and you voiced excellent views in your writing. Good Job!!!!

Mary- I loved reading your blogs. Your voice and creativity is reflected well throughout your paper. Each of your entries is detailed and seems to get better and better as the semester continues. The first blog that caught my eye was “TGFG (Thank God For Government)” not only to I completely agree with your blog but your title was great and made me want to read your writing. You posed excellent questions to your reader and it made your blog flow nicely.
Another blog that I loved reading was “Some Shoes”. Your story made me laugh while making an excellent point. You thoroughly grasped the point of that particular assignment and your writing clearly portrayed that. This would also make a great final blog. Good Job!!!!
Finally, I think “No One Wants to be Alone” would also make a great blog to wrap up the semester. Not only it enjoyable to read but it brought up some valid points regarding relationships and love. I think you are a great writer and each of your blogs would be equally good as a final project. Great Job Mary!!!!
